Beyond Paradise Season 3 premiered to an impressive 697k for ABC to be the network’s best Saturday drama result this year and the top entertainment show of the day. Father Brown’s Season 10 Final that followed also did well with 506k up 80k from the previous week.

Border Security - Australia’s Front Line was a repeat on Seven from 7pm averaging 568k while Seven’s movie last night saw another airing of Pitch Perfect that had 300k.

Nine ran a split schedule with NBL on the main channel on the east coast that averaged 158k. The movie Plane that followed just made the top 30 with 95k.

Selling Houses Australia was 10’s top performer with 317k up slightly on the previous week. Love It Or List It Australia that followed had 263k while earlier, Gogglebox Australia’s second encore of the week had 189k.

In the afternoon Nine’s coverage of Prime Minister’s XIII averaged 129k while Seven’s Horse Racing from Randwick had 162k.

Seven News was back to its normal Saturday rating this week after last week’s post AFL Grand Final record. The average of 1.089m was just ahead of Nine’s bulletin that had 1.059m. ABC News won at 7pm with 804k ahead of A Current Affair’s 726k. Meanwhile 10’s 5pm News had its highest Saturday result since March.

Weekend Sunrise made the top 10 despite dropping below 400k with Weekend Today on 269k and 166k for Weekend Breakfast.

10 News seems higher than usual for a Saturday!

5

It’s waaaaaay up on last week, but between 30-60k higher based on other Saturdays for the last few weeks

Impressive numbers for 10’s News (but not for the 6pm portion).

Is the NBL number for some cities good for Nine?

8

Definitely better numbers than on 10. So I think NBL would be happy with the extra exposure
