    1. Numbers down across 7 and 10. No doubt due to Ash Barty’s match. Was tempted to watch Ash but routine of Master chef and HYPBA prevailed for me.

  1. Good result for Australian Ninja Warrior considering it was up against not only Master Chef Australia and House Rules, but the Wimbledon Tennis on 7Two. Have You Been Paying Attention? was probably lower due to Wimbledon. A good move by Seven to put the tennis on the 7HD channel.
