Ten’s audience slumped to its lowest weekly share of the year while Seven won its first week since the offical 2019 ratings battle began, numbers released from OzTam have revealed.

Ten’s share of the audience from last Sunday to this Saturday was just 8.9%. Poor numbers for Ten’s Sunday Night Takeaway, the dominance of Nine’s Married At First Sight and the return of Seven’s My Kitchen Rules all contributed to the squeeze.
