Restaurant Revolution sinks to a new low while The Bachelor continues to fly for Ten
Lewis, Doc Martin and daytime soapie The Bold and the Beautiful were some of the shows to outrate Seven’s Restaurant Revolution on Thursday, as the reality cooking show continues to act as an anchor on the channel’s performance.

The Bachelor was the most-watched entertainment show of the evening and won in the demographics rising to 899,000 viewers in the 7.30pm timeslot from last week’s 817,000, according to OzTam metro overnight ratings.
