Analysis

Seven News was #2 at 803 000 and also won Adelaide and Perth, but additionally had a tie in Brisbane. This is Your Life was clearly the right move against the launch of My Mum Your Dad at 581 000 to be #7 for the night. US drama 911 was on 252 000 in the overnights and S.W.A.T was on 108 000. The Latest: Seven News didn’t get away until around 11:20pm with 59 000 viewers. Heartbreak Island Australia had just 27 000 viewers with just 1000 viewers in Brisbane, however this show is screened first on 7plus.
Nine News 6:30 was #3 overall and had wins in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Nine News won in Sydney and Melbourne and tied in Brisbane. A Current Affair won its timeslot with 702 000 viewers. Mixed result for the launch of My Mum Your Dad with 396 000 viewers. Nine is used to higher ratings at 7:30, but its target audience was watching This is Your Life. Nine will be very keen on the Total TV figures next week. Under Investigation with Liz Hayes had 206 000 viewers, which placed it behind 911, despite starting earlier. A repeat of Suburban Gangsters had 109 000 and Nine New Late was watched by 76 000 viewers.
