Tuesday continued to produce good results for Nine’s schedule with another episode of The Block well ahead in the 7.30pm timeslot with 1.094 even with last week’s episode. The penultimate episode of First Dates’ sixth season on Seven dropped 50k to 456k dropped.

After the conclusion of The Traitors last week, 10 premiered its new observational documentary series Sydney Harbour Cops to 352k. That was down 300k in the timeslot from the previous Tuesday. Foreign Correspondent at 8pm on ABC got a 90k boost to 555k. Over on SBS, the fifth episode of Shaun Micallef’s Origin Odyssey with Kate Langbroek missed the top 30 dropping 80k to 163k.

Later, Travel Guides continued to do good numbers for Nine as a repeat of their Las Vegas trip averaged 590k.
The Cheap Seats suffered with a weak lead in to drop to 397k which compared to 420k last week while the third and final part of Tampa: The Turning Point edged upwards to 295k.

Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares USA (not shown in Perth) was near the bottom of the rankings with 200k as SBS’s Insight had 168k.

Also making the top 30 list were 9News Late and 10’s Late News.

The day’s strongest performer was Seven News with 1.406m ahead of Nine News that averaged 1.292k.
Nine had earlier achieved success in the afternoon game show battle with Tipping Point on 796k leading The Chase with 670k.

By 7pm A Current Affair saw another Nine win with 1.032m as Home and Away lost audience with 920k but was still ahead of ABC News that had 877k.

Sunrise secured another win at breakfast yesterday morning with 462k. That was well clear of Today with 280k and News Breakfast with 215k.
