Ashes delivers another week to Nine.

Nine has scored another ratings week thanks largely to the Ashes: Second Test which drew up to 770,000 metro viewers.

Nine bagged its second consecutive week in Perth, by just 0.3% over Seven -but was denied a clean sweep with Adelaide returning to Seven.

Dancing with the Stars was the top entertainment drawcard for the week at 647,000.

However it has to be said reality shows Rush and Million Dollar Island are under-performing for Nine and Seven, respectively, outranked by MasterChef and ABC’s 7:30.
