A big night of live TV with the royal funeral attracting around 3,000,000 metro viewers across the FTA networks with another 188,000 on Sky.

Seven won the night and had the top three ranked program entries. It was then a close contest for second with Nine just 0.1 ahead of ABC. 10 and SBS failed to make double figures.

ABC’s coverage was simulcast over two channels and was the highest rated coverage of the funeral with 1,070,000 ahead of Seven with 975,000 and Nine with 879,000.

Nine and Seven split out The Procession as a separate coding where Seven was ahead 975,000 to 832,000.

The “Late” coding also saw ABC a winner with 629,000 from Seven with 525,000 and Nine on 332,000.

The afternoon coverage also went to ABC with 366,000 from 243,000 and 232,000 for Seven and Nine respectively.

It seems that ABC was ahead for most of the night except for news coverage where Seven was 80k ahead of Nine with ABC News trailing. News numbers were well down on usual thanks to Perth where a 4pm start saw record low numbers.

For 10, they were lucky to get two entries in the top 20. Have You Been Paying Attention? with 324,000 is likely to have done better than main channel funeral coverage. Earlier, The Project and The Amazing Race were outside the top 20 with less than 200k, TAR was down 100k from Sunday.

10 Bold that took the funeral managed a 2.2% share to be the number two multi channel behind ABC News. It down 0.5 points from its Monday average. The Project special on 10 Bold had 90k to just make the top 10 in multi channels.

SBS’s funeral coverage just made six figures.

LOL at 10.

10 absolutely demolished in the ratings with only HYBPA a silver lining (even then, would have been better off putting it on another night as it is one of their better rating programs).

Probably would have been better off running with the funeral on the main channel, the ratings couldn’t be any worse really and it at least could have laid a bit of groundwork for their news division to start being taken seriously again.

HUGE numbers for the funeral. 10 got hammered. Stupid decision continuing with HYBPA, but I figure that the catchup numbers for it will be higher than usual.

The Queen’s funeral attracted massive figures across the networks. It’s possible that some viewers switched between the stations during the coverage of the funeral service and then the procession.

Nine’s funeral coverage beat Seven’s in Sydney and Brisbane, while Seven won in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

HYBPA held up relatively well.

Well they prob saved some embarrassment not having the funeral on the main channel. The other three pulled a million each, Ten would be luckily to get 50k. Such a pointless news service, I really don’t even see the point wasting money on one.

groundwork for their news division to start being taken seriously again.

Very good figures for Seven News and Nine News covering the Queen Elizabeth II state funeral. ABC did reasonably well during the night and helped boost its primetime shares, though it was 0.1% behind Nine. Even Sky News performed better than SBS News and 10Bold.

Interesting to not though… Seven took out Melbourne by a huge margin over Nine with its funeral coverage. There is so much momentum going towards Seven News in Melbourne at the moment.

I still think Nine has been largely affected by the NRL finals in that market (on weekends). Nine have big problems in Melbourne.

Ten was going to get hammered no matter what it did. As commented by @TV.Cynic, HYBPA probably did better than any main channel funeral coverage would have got.

Interesting that for the “funeral” coding ABC was number one in all markets including Adelaide where it tied with Seven. Nine was second in Sydney and Brisbane with Seven second in the AFL markets.

For the procession that only Seven and Nine coded Nine won NRL territory and Seven AFL.

For the Late segments - ABC won all markets except Perth and for the Day, ABC won al markets. Seven was second in all markets for Late while in the day it went according to football code again.

Interesting to see all the different codings for the funeral.

As for 10, it would have been a more awful night if the funeral aired on the main channel. HYBPA did alright.

I think the ABC built a whole heap of momentum around the news service throughout the pandemic. Also seen in News Breakfast numbers. Great result for the ABC.

Plus ABC’s unrivalled election coverage. Still baffling that people will watch SD ABC News ahead of potentially ABC HD.

If the funeral aired on the main channel people wouldn’t watch it because… it’s Ch10?

Also what’s with the first 2 top rated shows, rated exactly the same and yet one is called The Grateful Goodbye and the other has the word - night added … so one was before 6pm?

Agree, the catchup numbers for HYBPA should be quite big, the funeral less so

So good to have normal programming on 10! I am a Republican but had complete respect for the Queen but IMO this coverage was way OTT. I am however pleased that the ABC got such good ratings for their coverage. I don’t get the important of 7 and 9 nightly news with news on ABC all day and at our fingertips. I also find the continual disparaging comments re. 10 very tiresome. They might not have a news service that some of you seem to want but with other programming, in particular, reality, at least they try new ideas. 7 in particular haven’t got an idea!

No, thats why they won the night :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Very humourous. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I wasn’t discussing their ratings for the funeral but their overall programming philosopy.
