Seven wins Wednesday’s ratings as Ten slumps to 16%

It was an easy ratings victory for Seven on Wednesday night, with every show in the network’s lineup beating its commercial rivals.  

Seven News neat Nine News and Ten’s The Simpsons; Today Tonight beat A Current Affair and Neighbours; Home And Away defeated Two And A Half Men and The 7PM Project; while World’s Strictest Parents was well ahead of Nine’s Money For Jam and thrashed Ten’s 7.30pm Simpsons double bill.

Ten’s Law & Order UK continued to struggle with an average of just 593,000 last night as the network achieved a miserable 16% share, well behind the ABC.

  • Seven: 29.9%

  • ABC1: 18.4%
  • Ten: 16.0%
