Seven hosts a raft of winners for Tuesday

Seven has again received a Tuesday night ratings win with seven of the top ten most watched programmes airing on the network last night.  

Packed To The Rafters lead the way and won the 8:30 timeslot, edging closer to a 2 million metro audience with 1.94 million, according to preliminary OzTam data.

8:30 was one of the five prime time slots won by Seven with the news bulletin at 6, Today Tonight at 6:30, Home and Away at 7 and All Saints at 9:30 all winners over programming on Nine and Ten.

Ten recovered from its ratings miss last week at 7.30 with the final of Talkin’ Bout Your Generation drawing in 1.6 million. The airing of the Australian Idol semi-finals in the same timeslot last Tuesday saw a much smaller number with the programme drawing in just over 1 million and was beaten by Airways on Seven.

Nine’s screening three repeat Two and a Half Men episodes didn’t do the network any favours with the 7pm episode the only one to pull over a million.

Nine’s programmers will have everything crossed tonight as new lifestyle programme Money for Jam is introduced to the 8pm timeslot. The network had one of the lowest 8pm commercial TV audiences of the year last Wednesday for the final of Australia’s Perfect Couple.
