Andrew Denton had time with Jimmy Barnes and his wife Jane last night with 458,000 watching, up on last week’s 413,000.
Nine
Three nights a week seems to be Nine’s magic franchise formula at present with The Voice growing its Tuesday numbers as Nine won again.
“What you did I didn’t think was possible,” said The Voice coach Boy George after he got up onstage for the first time ever with a contestant to sing on the TV franchise. The singer joined contestant Vendulka after she performed a version of Karma Chameleon, a high point of the Tuesday episode. Delta and then George turned first. Guy later, but no Kelly. The episode did 915,000 to end its week after 856,000 a week ago.
The Voice is now promoting “The TV moment of the year” when former AGT winner Jack Vidgen returns to performing as a contestant next Sunday.

Earlier in the night a towie’s dirty tricks were exposed on A Current Affair with 792,000 watching after 865,000 on Monday.
10
MasterChef just made it over 600,000 despite an epic immunity battle, which saw Sandeep win immunity as he out cooked the secret chef who turned out to be former winner Andy Allen. Sandeep got three perfect 10s from the judges who then, in the spirit of Secrets Week, kept Andy’s score…secret. The episode was on 611,000 after 618,000 last week.
Mr Black then did 304,000 after 342,000 a week ago.
