Seven
The news and its early evening programs helped the channel record a primary share of 16.6%.
Seven News was the most-watched program of the night. The first half starting at 6pm had 860,000 watching. Home and Away was its most-watched non-news program with 554,000 tuning in.

Gogglebox Australia was last night’s most-watched non-news show and TEN’s highest-ranking show. It ranked #5 and had 745,000 people watching. The program was a winner in all demo groups.
The discussion points from last night’s episode of The Bachelorette were: Ali’s medieval-inspired hairstyle during the single date with Taite and the drama between Bill and Charlie. While the episode was meant to be about the feud between the two bachelors, Ali’s hairstyle easily managed to upstage that on social media. The episode, which established Taite as a frontrunner to win Ali’s heart, had 589,000 watching.
The Project did 402,000.
ABC
ABC News was its most-watched program with an audience of 634,000. 7.30 did 505,000.
