Multi Channels

Winner: 7mate / 9Gem (3.2%)

Second: 10 Peach (2.6%)

With major sport across the primary channels, it was a quiet night on the multi channels with 3.2% high enough for a win. 7mate’s major contribution was the Cricket which was played in full in Perth on 7mate. One segment ran in Brisbane and Adelaide as well whilst Seven News was screening in those markets. 9Gem can thank the very old My Fair Lady for the win as well as some segments of the Tennis whilst Nine News was on for some markets. 10 Peach was second thanks to a night of re runs for The Big Bang Theory and Friends.
