Some strange programming by 10.
The final two episodes of Riptide on the night of State of Origin game three. Also 7.30pm Wednesday is TBA.
Triple new episodes of NCIS: Los Angeles on the Saturday.
And no mention of Australia v France football friendly on July 14 on 10 Bold, the last warm-up game for both teams before FIFA Women’s World Cup.
I think it’s related to the one-week postponement of MasterChef Australia, following the death of Jock Zonfrillo.
The original plan was to have MasterChef finals week on July 2-6 with the grand final on Tuesday July 11, the night before State of Origin game three. However, the postponement means the finals week has to be split in two to avoid SOO and also the debut of Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly Australia on July 13.
I now think the MC finale will now be shown on Wednesday July 19, thus the need to air double episodes of Riptide on July 12.
