The Critics Choice Awards are off and running with Australians Sarah Snook and Jacob Elordi taking out awards.
Snook won Best Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television with All Her Fault.
Snook had not prepared a speech, saying her husband commented in the car that she seemed distant.
Suddenly clocking how little time she had to deliver a speech, Snook quickly thanked the network, and the cast and crew.
“We had an awesome time with the crew shooting really difficult stuff,” Snook said.
All Her Fault streams on Binge in Australia and went up against Adolescence for Best Limited Series, with Adolescence coming out on top.
The Netflix series had already won three awards back-to-back.
Erin Doherty won Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television, Owen Cooper took out Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television, and Best Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television went to Stephen Graham.
“I’m the only person I don’t recognise in this room,” Graham joked.

Elordi expressed surprise, singling out a special thank you for director Guillermo del Toro.
“You made my dreams when I was 11,” Elordi said.
He ended his acceptance speech on a sweet note.
“And thank you Mum and Dad.”
More to come.
