Channel 7
Home & Away (431,000) and A Year on Planet Earth (236,000) kicked off Seven’s night better than last week, though still with a smaller-than-hoped-for audience.

Planet America (179,000) then folded into a repeat of QI (110,000) and new Adam Hills: The Last Leg (67,000).
ABC third in both primary (12.6%) and network (17.7%) rankings.
Channel 10
The Project (135,000 6:30pm; 220,000 7pm) continues its weekly slide before dropping into another almost-slot-winning episode of Dessert Masters (372,000). Afterwards a double ep premiere season three of My Life is Murder (166,000; 111,000) led into a repeat of The Secret She Keeps (42,000).
10 fourth in both primary (9.9%) and network (16.4%) rankings.
SBS
A solid start for SBS with Meet the Neighbours (102,000) and Alone UK (53,000), which then bent into a repeat of Boeing’s Fatal Flaw (53,000).
SBS fifth in both primary (3.5%) and network (7.6%) rankings.
