X Factor tops night but can’t beat The Block in the ad demos as Nine wins the night
The X Factor leapfrogged The Block in the 7.30pm last night but still could not claim a victory in the advertising demographics over Nine’s rennovation show.
Seven’s singing show managed 1.005m viewers according to OzTam metro overnight ratings, while The Block had 962,000 but topped the demos.
However on the eve of the Melbourne Cup Seven’s news did manage the rare feat of outrating Nine with 1.016m at 6pm and 997,000 at 6.30pm, with Nine’s 6pm bulletin managing just 936,000 and the 6.30pm 983,000.
The first repeat of the Big Bang Theory (561,000) on Seven again beat Nine’s Married at First Sight UK which managed 512,000 for Nine from 8.40pm. However the Big Bang fizzled out with 420,000 and 373,000 for the
Ten’s best shot was Have You Been Paying Attention which managed 661,000 viewers and second in the 16-39 and 18-49 demos, although it was down on last week’s 685,000 viewers.
The ABC enjoyed a decent evening with Australian Story about a Kimberley tour guide who beat disease (807,000), Four Corners (696,000) and Media Watch (627,000) all in the top 15 shows.
Nine topped the night with a 19. 5 per cent share, ahead of Seven’s 19.2 per cent and ABC on 15.8 per cent and Ten on 13.3 per cent.
