Please note: The report includes catch up minutes only and is not restricted to the five metropolitan cities. Live streaming channel viewing is not included. When broadcasters upgrade their video players, player measurement SDKs may take time to reach consumer devices (consumers need to update their apps) and may temporarily result in an under-reporting of a broadcaster video player figures. Refer to the VPM Guidelines at the [OzTAM website] (www.oztam.com.au)
VPM Rating: total minutes played divided by content length (rounded to the nearest '000); Length (mins): duration in minutes of the program content; Minutes: total number of minutes played across measured devices (rounded to the nearest '000); BVOD Reach: total number of times the video content began to play. Posted date: the day the video content was first made available to play. Top Programs are for episodes with a minimum length of 15 minutes.

Seven had its third straight win with its highest network share so far for the survey.
Seven also won the key demos plus AFL markets while Nine again won the NRL territories.
7Mate was the number one multi-channel with its highest share of the year in a week when the multi channels totalled the highest share of the audience for any week of this survey. 7Two and 9Life also posted survey high shares.
Nine and ABC both recorded their lowest network shares for the survey period while SBS was at its equal highest and 10 was even week on-week.
Lego Masters’ Sunday episode was the top entertainment show in total people while Have You Been Paying attention easily topped the key demo groups.

I think 312,000 is The Handmaid’s Tale’s highest VPM rating over in Australia.
