The first My Kitchen Rules (1st – 1,649,000) for the week and it’s like it had been away for a year. Consequently The Block Triple Threat (13th – 723,000) and I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here (12th – 748,000) suffer – the latter beating the former for the first time since it launched (The Denyer effect?). The ABC’s Monday night of 7:30 (10th – 815,000), Australian Story (9th – 836,000), Four Corners (11th – 809,000), Media Watch (13th – 723,000) and Q&A (16th – 611,000) continues to be the most consistent of all the networks. Revenge (15th – 661,000) drops 1 million viewers from its lead-in and while still acceptable it’s not a great look. Gallipoli (9pm: 22nd – 479,000; 10pm: 27th – 373,000) slides even further as the burn off commences.
