Lowest in a while excluding the Thursday episodes?

I thought ABC News would get a much better bump last night with the final appearance of Alan Kohler.

But I guess if you didn’t know about it, or weren’t a regular ABC News viewer, it wasn’t going to have an impact.

Poor 10. The Traitors UK seems to be low again. I assume it may pick up some viewers tonight - with no Block airing on Nine, perhaps, like last week.

Has this season of Hard Quiz on the ABC seem lower than previous seasons?

It picks up a lot of viewers before transmission that isn’t counted in overnights and consolidated, unfortunately for 10 the pre Wednesday viewers aren’t counted for shares

It’s been a memorable, perhaps ‘tide turning’ week for Seven, now flowed in nicely to the RLWC.
