The Block has returned with series 11 – no fancy sub-title for this series and a promise of back-to-basics with the format.
The launch audience of 1.07m was up on the 969,000 watching the Wednesday launch of The Block Triple Threat earlier this year, but down on the launch audiences for 2014’s The Block Fans V Faves (Monday with 1.16m) and The Block Glasshouse (Sunday with 1.37m).
The first episode of the eleventh season of Australia’s longest-running reality series managed to win its timeslot with the Melbourne audience again the biggest – The Block ranked #1 for the night in that market with 418,000 watching.
