“Floods, floods, floods”. “All you need is floods”. Feeling overdosed yet?
As the coverage slowly converts back to normal programming for most areas (BNE is still wall to wall coverage), people are starting to go looking for things to take their mind off the disaster, so normal programming sneaking back into the nightly Top15. Entirely notable that Channel 7’s Sunrise was beaten by Channel 9’s Today Show for the second day in a row. A sign of things to come, or will the ratings recede as quickly as the flood waters?

For the first time, and as (hopefully) a regular feature, the digital multi-channel ratings is available and will be included in the daily ratings report. After a big launch on Tuesday and big numbers for Neighbours on Eleven… the gloss hasn’t worn off quite yet. The sad realisation is that the numbers it is getting are slightly better than it was receiving when on Ch10 last year.
