Carols By Candlelight and Nine in general dominated Christmas Eve viewing. The Carols topped the night averaging almost 1.5 million, well up on the last two years’ broadcasts that had around 1.3 million (1.228m and 1.35m). Earlier Christmas With Delta (Encore) also did well and won its 7.30pm timeslot with 738k.

That was ahead of The 1% Club UK from 7pm on Seven with 669k while Shaun Micallef’s Eve of Destruction Christmas Special had just 355k on ABC. 10’s prime time lineup missed the top 30 list with the afternoon’s 10 News the only entry.

Also on ABC, Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee Christmas Special managed just 270k. That was behind Seven’s movie The Holiday that had 290k. Nine’s premiere movie Noel Next Door that followed the Carols did well to out rate that with 294k.

Nine also won the 6pm news battle with a 40k margin. Sunrise had earlier averaged 391k maintaining a 75k margin over Today.

The midday movies from Nine and Seven again made the top 30.

And have a very merry ratings Christmas :christmas_tree:

Carols by Candlelight absolutely dominated the night.

Both shows had been available on iView since November 29, so it might have impacted on their TV ratings.

Was 1% Club new or a Repeat?

It was a repeat.

Wow, Nine would be rapt, great start for what is a mega two months ahead for the company, as also shown in new promos/IDs on-air last night.

PS: what a legend doing this on Chrissy Day, good on ya TVCynic :slight_smile:

Thank you @TV.Cynic
Worst Carols in years and the largest audience.. 9 may have done themselves a disservice.

Channel 10s none Christmas Eve programming bombed again.

It’s as though they ignore the holiday season. They don’t air spericially Xmas programming on the 24 or 25th December. It really bizarre thinking. It’s as though the season doesn’t exist. There’s no holiday idents or programming to reassure the viewer that the network is catering to the signs of the time. It’s really shit thinking,

12

Yep, and this happens every year. The momentum they built from Big Brother has long gone. Other than the 5.00pm news, nothing works for them in December.

Are the news figures even that flash? 273,000 is diabolical. More people are watching TV in the morning on 7 and 9 than they are at 5 p.m. at night on 10. Considering the figures Tipping Point and The Chase achieve, 10 News’ numbers are horrific.
