SEVEN maintain a stranglehold on the 6pm-7pm slot.
A Home & Away (494,000)-focused night for Seven brings in some good numbers, including This Is Your Life: Ray Meagher (595,000) which got within reach of Nine’s reality reno juggernaut. The Good Doctor (276,000), 10 Years Younger in 10 Days (120,000), and Chicago Fire (47,000) keep late evening fans occupied.

Nine second in both primary (22.1%) and network (29.6%) rankings.
The Project (198,000 6:30pm; 329,000 7pm) gets a bump for 10 as Carrie Bickmore announces she is leaving the program at the end of the year – the last of the original cast to do so. Mirror Mirror (301,000) slips 100k on the first night and into fourth in the slot. The Cheap Seats (332,000) only continues to grow – the second of two Working Dog programs really helping 10. A double repeat of NCIS (124,000; 77,000) ends the evening.
10 third in both primary (11%) and network (17.5%) rankings.
7:30 (417,000) and Take 5 with Zan Rowe (299,000) slip neatly into third place in primetime again for the ABC, followed by the second of two parts of Keep on Dancing (194,000). The later evening held repeats of Louis Theroux: Life on the Edge (98,000), People’s Republic of Mallacoota (48,000), and Four Corners (28,000).
ABC fourth in both primary (9.5%) and network (14.8%) rankings.
