A week that runs for more than one week is just pulling the piss.
A Current Affair (656,000) is the best after 7pm across everything, lifting Nine to another win. Australian Ninja Warrior (500,000) picks up too, and then it’s all 2022 Wimbledon D10 (321,000 night; 313,000 late), all of the time. Bumped to 9Gem Footy Classified (47,000) draws a smaller audience.
Nine first in both primary (23.2%) and network (31.6%) rankings.
Seven will be counting the days until the Comm Games, as Home & Away (433,000) does all the heavy lifting in the first half of the week. Big Brother Australia (341,000) is up though way off the pace in a distant fourth, and the evening is messed up with Unbelievable Moments Caught on Camera (153,000) and Ramsay’s 24 Hours to Hell and Back (71,000) sliding around to suit The Front Bar (282,000 (177,000 MEL)).
Seven second in both primary (17.1%) and network (24.2%) rankings.
7:30 (534,000) and Gruen (536,000) deliver another primetime blow securing second spot overall. The Weekly with Charlie Pickering (475,000) and You Can’t Ask That (295,000) own the following slot too – a good night for the ABC. A repeat of Would I Lie To You? (185,000) finishes things nicely.
ABC third in primary (12.8%) and fourth in network (16.7%) rankings.
The Project (265,000 6:30pm; 404,000 7pm) gets a boost for 10, likely because of a strong MasterChef Australia (583,000). Even Five Bedrooms (253,000) bumped up though the repeat of The Secret She Keeps (80,000) didn’t do much and neither did Good Sam (39,000).
10 fourth in primary (12.3%) and third in network (18.9%) rankings.
An up and down night for SBS, with Michael Mosley’s 21 Day Challenge (129,000) leading into True Colours (83,000), and then Tour de France stage 5 (124,000) rolling through the night.
SBS fifth in both primary (5.2%) and network (8.6%) rankings.
