Then, 316,000 watched My Mum Your Dad. It was a dramatic 24 hours at the retreat and eleven parents remained in search for love. Since Boss’ shock decision to leave, one Mum had to go to even out the numbers. The kids decided that Donna would be the one to go given she had not yet made a connection.

Million Dollar Murders followed for 185,000. The series looked at what has become one of W.A.’s most enduring and heartbreaking mysteries. The case of Gerard Ross, an 11-year-old who vanished while on a family holiday.

504,000 then watched Australian Story. In last night’s episode, we met the violin virtuosos from Brisbane who ditched a classical career to create an online music comedy act. Now Brett Yang and Eddy Chen have gone viral and are playing sell-out concerts.

Evacuation followed for 300,000. When allied forces began to return home from Afghanistan, the Taliban started taking back parts of the country. A small team of British military were then sent out to prepare for a possible evacuation.

Dessert Masters then followed for 477,000. During the episode, the all-star contestants needed to make a dish that wasn’t what it seemed inspired by Amaury Guichon’s insane and famous lifelike dessert masterpieces. Both Andy Bowdy — who made a dessert that looked like dirt in a dustpan — and pink mohawk sensation Anna Polyviou — who made the most incredible lifelike hot dog out of sweet treats —  impressed Guichon and Melissa Leong so much, they were safe from going into an elimination round.

165,000 then watched The Secret She Keeps. During the episode, it was now two years after her child was kidnapped, and as someone winds up dead, Meghan Shaughnessy was being held in police custody for murder.
