Brisbane radio ratings: Nova surges into top spot while 4BC falters slightly
GfK radio ratings were paused in April due to COVID-19. The last released survey was survey two, released on April 16. Survey three, four and five were cancelled. This story covers survey six, which ran from Sun Jul 26 to Sat Sept 19. Survey seven will be released as normal.
4BC’s new breakfast host, Neil Breen, has delivered a 1.5 point loss in his first survey for the Nine Radio station, after taking over from Alan Jones at the start of June. The breakfast program now holds an 8.2% share.
Jones announced his retirement from radio in May citing health reasons. His program was syndicated across Sydney and Brisbane, with Ben Fordham taking over breakfast in Sydney and Breen hosting a local breakfast show in Brisbane.

The latest GfK survey results, which measured the period from 26 July to 19 September, mark the return of radio ratings, which were put on pause earlier this year due to COVID-19. Consequently, surveys three, four and five were cancelled.
