Celebrity Apprentice keeps Nine smiling while Ten’s bad week continues

The Celebrity Apprentice is continuing to put Nine high up in the ratings rankings although it pulls off the trick partly by coding what appears to viewers as a single show as two separate episodes.

One part of last night’s Celebrity Apprentice rated 1.128m, second for the night, while the other part rated 888,000, 10th for the night.

Seven News, with 1.208m viewers was top for the night, while Gruen Planet on ABC1 was third with 1.054m according to preliminary metro ratings from OzTam.

Ten had another awful night with its best showing Glee pulling in 724,000 viewers, 14th for the night. Next best was The Project, down in 20th with 555,000 viewers. Ten was beaten into fourth for share behind ABC1.

Nine won the night for single channel share while the strong performance of SevenTwo and Mate helped the Seven Network win the battle for network share
