TEN has now won its second night of the ratings week with MasterChef Australia: The Winner Announced seeing Brent Owens win to the tune of 1.7m viewers.
The bulk of the show coded as Finale was 1.65m viewers.
Both were the biggest numbers for TEN this year, with Winner Announced even surpassing Nine’s finale for The Voice in the same timeslot a week ago.
Together with the Commonwealth Games coverage, TEN scored a massive 35.2% network share -its biggest since August 2011.

ONE dominated multichannels with a 7.2% share.
TEN’s other content was some distance behind its Reality finale with The Project (734,000 / 508,000), Glasgow Live (721,000 / 412,000) and TEN Eyewitness News (634,000).

I too am glad this site offers a place where people can exchange ideas without such nastiness.
In response to bender, I think most of the comments on Reality Ravings are humorous. But some do cross the line, notably a poster calling themselves Pork Chop who made a nasty anti Muslim comment after another poster had wished everybody Eid Mubarak.
Good news for 10. Really enjoyed this years season of MasterChef.
I am very happy for 10 for achieving this. I hope it sends a strong message that the reign of singing shows is over!!!
No, it just sends out the message that people liked this season. Well done to TEN.
I agree that this season of Masterchef was a winner. and I also think that the networks are all doing a pretty good job of keeping out of each others way this year. I remember this time last year being annoyed that i had to channel flip a lot and miss stuff.
Not sure if its just the shows I like not being scheduled together, but it seems to be working well for rating too.
David any chance we can figures for ten between 600-800am their glascow brekky wrap interested to see how its comparing to others
Masterchef………Good showing for TEN. Proably shows that it does not pay to muck around with a formula, it was tried last year and it failed.
Congrats on bringing the show back to its roots.
On other Channels Brooklyn Nine Nine…Superb.
Congrats to ten and shine for a great season of mc. Such a positive show as apposed to the nastiness of mkr. Also would like to say thanks to all the people who comment on this site for being insightful and generally positive in their comments. Looked at reality ravings this year and was appalled at the negativity and nastiness of the comments. Thanks david for not allowing such blatant trolling on your site.

1.05m – The Winner Announced
921,000 – Bulk
Finally ch10 have something worth shouting about, but now comes he challenge of sustaining this. Dome ,which is on tonight, is tanking, so it will be interesting to see tomorrows figures and whether The Bach can fire up viewers (its all too chessey for me).on Wed and Thu
But MC was a job well done, so congrats to all involved
@Pete – well we arent the US, so yes it is overseas programming
so it seems with 10 winning its 9 losing coming in 3rd. Now without masterchef it will be interesting to see how it goes.
Just out of interest what did last years MC final rate? I know it was very very low.
Brooklyn Nine Nine was a great comedy on SBS One last night. From The Office and Parks and Rec stable, it lived up to its pedigree.
Hasn’t SBS moved so far away from its original charter of providing niche overseas programming? Unless you call a US sitcom overseas programming.
I hate to be pedantic, but the Voice Finale came in at 1.66m which pips Masterchef’s 1.65m. However, Winner announced for Masterchef easily beat the announcement for the Voice..
Go Ten!!
Family Feud must have tanked – not listed in primaries nor digital.
Or am I reading it wrong?
