GRANT Denyer says Sunday will be as much his wife’s night as it is his.

Denyer, who is nominated for his work now defunct Channel 10 game show Family Feud, said owes his success to the mother of his two children Sailor, 7, Scout, 2 – who will be watching from home.
“We make a pretty good team,” he said.
“She has been instrumental in building and helping to grow my career so this would be as much hers as it would be mine if I were to win.
“It’s a rare moment for us to stop and go ‘the hard work is worth it’.”
Denyer, who is up against Amanda Keller, Andrew Winter, Jessica Marais, Rodger Corser and Tracy Grimshaw in the Gold Logie category, said the “aggressive and exhausting” days of worrying about getting to “the top of the ladder” are behind him.
“You get to a point where you realise the industry ebbs and flows and you get less panicked about things,” he said.
“It’s nice to just stop and look around and realise how lucky you are to have lasted this long.”
