The special Tracy Grimshaw tribute A Current Affair (488,000) offers a strong result for Nine, which all but vanishes for Country Home Rescue with Shaynna Blaze (332,000). Dream Listing Byron Bay (199,000) and a repeat of Escape to the Chateau (97,000)
complete the evening with a focus on real estate.

Seven second in primary (16.2%) and first in network (24.5%) rankings.
7:30 (474,000) and a repeat of Hard Quiz (451,000) land second in primetime and push the ABC into a definitive third position. The penultimate episodes of Question Everything (386,000) and Fisk (500,000) take out the following slot with the latter ticking up 25% week on week, before sliding into repeats of Would I Lie To You? (258,000) and Death in Paradise (30,000).
ABC third in both primary (15%) and network (20.4%) rankings.
David Attenborough & the Giant Elephant (81,000) kicked off SBS’s night, before another primetime game in the FIFA World Cup: MAR vs CRO (362,000). The early morning FIFA World Cup: FRA vs AUS (461,000) pulled a strong audience given the time, and added 134,000 via RegTAM, plus a massive 246,000 BVOD bringing its total to 841,000 for the very early start.
SBS fourth in both primary (11.6%) and network (16.5%) rankings.
The Project (170,000 6:30pm; 278,000 7pm) leads 10’s night. Claremont: A Killer Among Us (266,000) delivers the network some joy, before dropping into an underperforming My Life is Murder (134,000) and a repeat of Bull (71,000).
