The importance of sports to Australian FTA television was highlighted again with week 42 ratings. Seven’s coverage Australia’s win in the first game of the Rugby League World Cup on Thursday topped all the rankings and averaged over 1.7m. Earlier in the week the Bathurst 1000 also scored well with 1.458m. On the reality TV front, The Block still took out the number one place with its Sunday reveal though My Kitchen Rules overtook The Block on two nights during the week. Home and Away was the top scripted entry again though it fell down the ranks thanks to a 7Two schedule on Thursday in all markets while Beyond Paradise slipped to rank 31st while Dustfall was 33rd both for ABC. Have You Been Paying Attention? finished its season in 29th place. A new Celebrity Intervention was 22nd for Seven while the new 1 Euro House 38th for Nine. Also making the top 50 were Off the Grid for Seven 46th, Lynley for ABC 49th and Gogglebox for 10 in 50th. The premiere of State of Man was 52nd. On Sunday night, a Spotlight special 70 Years of Seven pulled ahead of 60 Minutes. ---

Live sport took out five of the top 10 spots in the BVOD chart, with RLWC occupying the top three. The Block and MKR shared the rest. ---

Would have thought that Seven would code the Rugby League World Cup coverage slightly different. As they have two entries as “World Cup - Night”, instead of “Night - Sat” and “Night - Fri” etc. Also a good battle between MKR and The Block. ---
