In possibly the most competitive and anticipated Sunday night in Australian television history, Nine came out on top with 60 Minutes defeating Dancing with the Stars as the evenings most popular television show.
Almost 1.6 million viewers tuned into 60 Minutes with Domestic Blitz (1.46 million) also defeating The Outdoor Room (1.3 million) in the coverted 6:30PM slot.
Seven News (1.526 million) narrowly defeated Nine News (1.507 million) with a major boost for Sydney’s Nine News (402 000) audience which defeated Seven News (389 000) with weeknight presenter, Mark Ferguson in the newsreaders chair.
Dancing with the Stars was still competitive with 1.33 million viewers but down on its previous highs which almost toppled the 2 million mark. Seven will be disappointed with that result with the new series receiving criticism for some of the deemed ‘inappropriate music’ and ‘raunchy costumes’ according to entertainment reporter Peter Ford this morning on 2UE’s Steve Price Morning Show.
Australian Idol was also strong claiming 1.3 million viewers while telemovie Scorched which was screened on Nine managed 1.1 million viewers.
The night was close but Nine still managed to defeat Seven by 2.7%, the figures looking like this:
Nine 27.7%
