The first day of 2025, a public holiday, saw Seven post a +10 point victory with wins across most timeslots day and night. It was Seven’s best Wednesday share in more than a year but Nine’s lowest in seven months. ABC’s share was its lowest for a Wednesday since the Olympics and not too far ahead of 10 that was up +3 from the previous week while SBS was down one.

Seven News was the top rated program of the day and 200k ahead of Nine News. ABC News had a rare win at 7pm with no A Current Affair in the schedule. Seven also had the top non-news program with BBL cricket making the top five on 582k.

That was ahead of ABC’s Spicks and Specks on 468k while the United Cup on Nine averaged just 366k. 10’s movie Forrest Gump didn’t do too bad with 276k while SBS also did well with Big Fat Quiz of the Year topping 200k. The Best Of Project also managed to top the same mark.

Some afternoon viewing saw a repeat of the NYE Concert on 100k and Countdown 50 Years On with 123k for ABC. Later, The Chase had a win over Tipping Point in the afternoon while Nine’s United Cup tennis had 177k.

At breakfast, numbers were well down with Sunrise at its lowest since last Easter but still winning by 100k.

In primetime, Seven’s Big Bash (cricket) still doing well, while the United Cup (tennis) on Nine did okay. While the annual Big Fat Quiz of the Year on SBS did well for SBS standards, for its 95 minute edition.

Daytime had more competition. The United Cup (177k) + Brisbane International (114k) made the top 30, as did ABC’s Countdown Special (178k at 10.30am-12pm), News at Noon (278k, at 12-1pm) and NYE Concert (108k at 1.35-4.15pm)
