The Seven, Nine and ABC evening news bulletins and then A Current Affair topped the Saturday TV ratings chart. The biggest non-news viewing was Victoria and the 2018 Call the Midwife Christmas Special.
The Australian rugby team managed another draw with Argentina with both teams locked on 16 at the end of the second half. The match gave 10 another improved Saturday share, but it was still the broadcaster’s lowest share of the week where it was under a 10% share for five nights.
