Nine TV Ratings

After a one week hiatus due to The State of Origin, Travel Guides returned on Nine this week and took viewers to the Kimberley. Despite it being a local episode this was filmed pre-covid and took the guides to a wilderness lodge, Bungle Bungle Range, and the 300 million-year-old Windjana Gorge. The episode had 648,000 viewers

The penultimate episode of Doctor Doctor aired last night with 437,000 viewers tuning in ahead of the finale next week.

Footy Classified then had 89,000.

Seven TV Ratings

Home and Away was the top-rating program on Seven last night with 628,000 tuning in to the classic Aussie soap.

Big Brother had 586,000 as Big Brother revealed Tilly and Ari were in the secret mirrored room and hadn’t left the house yet with one of them returning later in the episode.

The person who would return came down to a game of chance. The housemates watched on as, one by one, Tilly and Ari selected mirrored boxes, hoping their box wouldn’t contain the red jewel that would send them home.

Luck wasn’t on Tilly’s side and the stone sent her home, while Ari re-entered the house.

“I’m so frigging grateful for this experience, like, it’s the best thing I’ve done in my entire life,” said Tilly. “I literally found things in myself I didn’t know existed. I was nothing but myself. I’ll miss these people so much, it’s like a family. I love everyone. It doesn’t matter what they did to me. I really hope Marley or Danny win. I told Ari everything I know in the hope he’ll go back in there and look after Danny and Marley cause that’s what I would have done. We’ll have to wait and see.”

“God it feels good to be home, I was not ready to go,” said Ari. “I’ve got a new lease on life, I have learnt a lot. I’ve been sharpening my axe. I need to get rid of Sid and protect Marley and Danny.”

Big Brother was followed by the vintage film Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me with 137,000 viewers.
