Celebrity

• What a difference a day makes: Nine and TEN dominate, Seven #3
• Celebrity and Gogglebox make a demo-winning team again for TEN

Seven hay have dominated the first four nights of week two, as we carefully noted yesterday, but the primary channel slipped to #3 on its most-challenged night of the week with a Thursday share of 16.3%.

Nine and TEN scooped up all the viewers with Nine just 0.3 of a point ahead of TEN.

Nine was on top in all markets except Perth where it only managed 11.8%.

For TEN it was the channel’s second strong Thursday with good numbers again for both I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! and Gogglebox.
