SBS's critically acclaimed drama Safe Harbour has received five nominations in this year's TV Week Logie Awards.
The nominations for the July 1 TV Week Logie awards were announced on Sunday at The Star on the Gold Coast, which will host the ceremony for the first time.
Safe Harbour scored a nomination in the 'Most Outstanding Miniseries or Telemovie' category and is up against Stan's Romper Stomper, the ABC's Seven Types of Ambiguity, the Nine Network's Underbelly Files: Chopper and Wake In Fright from Network Ten.
Four cast members of the mini-series that follows a group of Australians who come across a fishing boat full of desperate asylum seekers have also received nominations.
Ewen Leslie for 'Most Outstanding Actor', Leeanna Walsman for 'Most Oustanding Actress', Hazem Shammas for 'Most Outstanding Supporting Actor', and Nicole Chamoun in the category for 'Most Outstanding Supporting Actress'.
The second series of Struggle Street - which aired last year off the back of the success of the documentaries' 2015 launch - was nominated in the 'Most Outstanding Factual Or Documentary Program' category.

The Gold Logie
Many of Australian television's biggest names have been overlooked for the industry's biggest awards, but one veteran has finally earned a nomination.
A Current Affair host Tracy Grimshaw is in the running for her first Gold Logie.
"I still can't quite believe it. I never quite imagined myself in this space," she told AAP.
"It's a great honour and it's a thrill, and it's a pleasure."
The Ten Network's Amanda Keller and Grant Denyer, actors Jessica Marais and Rodger Corser, and lifestyle presenter Andrew Winter are also in the race for the Gold.
Former Bachelorette Sam Frost has been nominated as best new talent after switching to acting on Home and Away, alongside billionaire Andrew Forrest's daughter Sophia Forrest for her role in Nine's Love Child.
In the running for most popular drama are Nine's Doctor Doctor and Love Child, Ten's Offspring, Seven's Home and Away and Showcase's Foxtel.

But the nominations list was also notable for who and what missed out - including Nicole Kidman who was overlooked for her role in Foxtel's Top of the Lake: China Girl.
Her co-star, American actress Elisabeth Moss, has been nominated for most outstanding actress.
Ratings also seemed to count for little, with Ten's Masterchef and its judges snubbed.
Arch-rival program, Seven's My Kitchen Rules, has a chance in the reality program category, along with The Block and Married at First Sight on Nine. But its high-profile judges - Manu Feildel and Pete Evans also luckless.
None of the big breakfast TV names - Karl Stefanovic, David Koch, Sam Armytage and Georgie Gardner, nor Lisa Wilkinson - has scored a nomination.
The Today Show and Sunrise also missed out, but Wilkinson's new show, The Project, has been nominated in the most popular entertainment program category.
Nine's streaming service Stan picked up nominations for its production of Romper Stomper.
