The very best tweets from last night’s #TIOawards

Last night was good, wasn’t it?

Oh, you didn’t come along? That’s a shame, although we do understand that there is a crazy amount of great television on these days, and that Tuesday nights are packed with competing events, so you are forgiven – at least you will be once we get the apology Toblerone.

But you really missed out on a great night. It was the inaugural one too, which I’m pointing out simply because the word ‘inaugural’ is so damn pleasing to use.

We’ve assembled a series of tweets to accurately summarise the evening and events, from the ridiculous to the sublime (Spoiler: We’re booking Sublime to play at next year’s event).

A complete list of winners can be found here – while a step-by-step guide to trimming your beard like Craig David can be found here. Choose your destiny.

The category I’m nominated in is announced SECOND LAST tonight but do ya think it’s gonna stop me from downing red wines? Because it is not. #tioawards

Congrats to legends Ben and Liam who – fresh from two amazing Adelaide stand-up shows – picked up Radio Host of the Year at last night's @theindustry_o Awards!
…and subsequently traded it for a 'big ass zucchini' according to Ben's Instagram. ????

Prediction: At least a Half dozen or so Ball Tampering gags at tonight's @theindustry_o #tioawards. Will be disappointed with anything less.
