The Secret Daughter episode two did 492,000 after launching last week on 304,000.
A late night special – Jessica Mauboy All The Hits Live – did 212,000 with a start close to 10pm.
Nine
A Current Affair was on 600,000, but because of the football it didn’t air in Brisbane.
Nine was originally thinking about running the Socceroos v Honduras match on 9GO! but because of the importance of the game it switched to the primary channel with impressive results.
The pre-game in Sydney and Melbourne did 443,000 before the game then pulled a metro audience of 1.16m. The combined national audience was 1.52m with 360,000 in regional markets.
The match coverage on 9Now set a new streaming record for the platform with 82,678 live stream starts between 8pm and 10pm.

The Project 7pm did 493,000 before the numbers dropped to 346,000 for Jamie Oliver.

ABC
Hard Quiz kicked off the same time as the football match yet Hard Quiz was close to 600,000 after 681,000 last week.
The final episode of Gruen for series nine this year was almost a Taylor Swift marketing masterclass with 718,000 after 841,000 last week. The consolidated numbers should be bigger next week and there is always the option of Gruen XL tonight.
