Lachy Hulme has been awarded most outstanding actor for playing the late Frank Packer in Nine's Power Games: the Packer Murdoch Story.
He began his acceptance speech by saying who he didn't want to thank and ended with a big shout out for his mum.
"I don't want to thank the cast and crew because they know how I feel about them and how much I love them ... and I don't want to do agents or publicists," he said at the Logie Awards in Melbourne on Sunday.
"I want to thank some people who had nothing to do with this production but have been tremendously helpful and supportive...
"And most importantly for my mum, I thank you very much".
Hulme edged out most popular actor Chris Lilley, Craig McLachlan from The Doctor Blake Mysteries, Better Man star David Wenham and Redfern Now's Kirk Page for the gong.
