Weather in England impacted last night’s TV ratings in Australia with Saturday’s win going to Seven on a fairly low-rating night. Rain shut down The Ashes Third Test’s early sessions with the game not getting underway until approx. 1:45 am AEST. That saw Lunch as the highest rated segment of the game with almost 300k. Nine would have expected double that last night but will now see the game make it into day four to be seen Sunday night, weather permitting. 9Gem’s Wimbledon coverage that also included rain delays saw the multichannel post its best Saturday share of the survey.

Over on Seven, AFL managed 350k to be the top non-news program of the night.

ABC’s Sister Boniface Mysteries was the top scripted program of the day just ahead of another Vera repeat that combined to lift ABC’s share to its best Saturday in five weeks.

10 News made the top 20 with 10’s share slightly higher than the previous week thanks to 10 Peach. Nothing in primetime , however, made the top 20.

Foxtel’s top 20 was entirely sport including the Super Netball Final.

Still find it interesting that 10 have not opted to extend its Saturday news to 90 mins on Saturdays.

Seven’s movie re-run also did well, capitalising on Tom Cruise week/MI: 7 release and the rain affected cricket and tennis. IIRC movies on Saturdays at least haven’t done over 200k metro and 80k in Sydney for quite some time, looks like it won its timeslot in Sydney and Perth too. Border repeat at 7pm also over 100k in Sydney. Worst outcome for Nine really, but they now get certain play (hopefully no rain) tonight on Sydney.

5

There is no advantage in Ten doing that

6

It can’t even beat Seven and Nine News First at Five imagine the ratings it would get at 6pm.

They struggle to find 60 minutes worth of news on a Saturday so how can they fill 90 minutes?

Understand… but yes extra recourses would need to be added to the Saturday edition.

9

ABC also benefited with last night’s rain affected sports

10

There was a period in the late 1990s or early 2000s when Ten didn’t bother airing a weekend news bulletin at all… It must not be very profitable for them.

Same as they do on the other days…. Repeat the news from the first hour for the 6.00pm half hour.

You like watching the ssme thing twice within a program?

Again, it seems to work fine during the other days of the week. I don’t know why it couldn’t work on Saturdays, especially seeing as it’s 10 highest rated program of the night.

15

Does it work though? It doesn"t rate any more than other programs they have shown in the slot.

I’m sure it’ll do a lot better than what’s currently in the Saturday 6pm slot.

17

There are not going to be any extra resources added because everyone agrees it is a really bad idea

18

Who?

Everyone who @scott thinks is against him. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
