Footy Show arm break watched by 435,000 as Todd Sampson’s Redesign My Brain finale rises
The finale episode of Leo Burnett CEO Todd Sampson’s Redesign My Brain, which saw the adman complete a skywalk across a 3cm capable suspended between two buildings 21 floors high, was watched by 682,000 metro viewers at 8.30pm on the ABC.
While it was down on the finale of last year’s season, which grabbed 874,000 viewers, it was the show’s best performance this year, up on the debut audience of 675,000 and last week’s audience of 626,000.

Meanwhile, 435,000 people in Sydney and Brisbane tuned into The Footy Show which was forced to throw to a hasty commercial break when Ben Ross broke his arm on live TV during a charity arm wrestling contest with Wendell Sailor.
And if you missed it… You would have heard it over and over again on the Today Show this morning.
Redesign Your Brain was an absolutely brilliant series and i loved every episode but the final walk was an incredible way to end. still…putting Masterchef up against it was clever by channel 10. i reckon it was howcroft.
Agree Marty. Congrats to everyone who worked on Redesign. Great story well told.
I think you will find the NRL Footy Show in Sydney and Brisbane only had an average audience of 238,000 while the AFL Footy Show had an average audience of 412,000 in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
I did not expect much from this show and got a lot. Thank you Todd Sampson and the ABC.
