TV audiences for the tennis were down from Saturday. I think the reason why the numbers are down is because that there was no Australian playing yesterday.
Couples outside Victoria enjoying Valentines Day with a meal out, movie and then early to bed?
Seems people tune in for the news at over 900,000 on 7 and 9 and then half of them head elsewhere, maybe to streaming?
That’s how it is in our house. Suspect it’s becoming the norm. Why watch FTA with relentless adverts, over runs and reality!
The women’s matches were really good quality yesterday. Great for the game.
No Nick Kyrgios or any superstar last night and the tennis went south, south, south. They’re lucky they still won, had it not been for Djoker going until half-past midnight with a Melbourne audience not having to get up for work either.
Suspect Ash Barty will be very big tonight.
Low numbers across the board. I also expeced more.
Is SBS World News back to the one coding?
No, sorry I have added in.
Thanks for that. I guess the split coding is here to stay for a while
The Kunkle episode of Holey Moley was a delight! I was crying with laughter!
Wow low numbers across the board.
Watched a bit of Halep in the tennis (third set) but switched over to Netflix. Will watch Harrow later when I have a few eps on my PVR. I live in Victoria and there isn’t much on FTA. And if you haven’t tuned into the reality options up until now Victorians won’t start now we are in lockdown.
So loved Quoll Farm. Truly magical.
Am familiar with the larger Spotted Tail Quoll from the Mainland but not these smaller ones from Tassie. Such quirky and beautiful little animals. The scenery was stunning as well.
A real shame Simon wasn’t able to purchase this abandoned farm site as vital habitat for these endangered little quolls.
Couldn’t agree more Angela, an absolutely delightful show. I would love to have a couple of Quolls as pets.
Quolls as pets, substituting for cats has been suggested over a number of years, but they are wild animals with all that entails (so’s to speak).
Yes Gaz, so adorable. Sad they have such a very short life – only 2 to 3 years in the wild apparently.
