Hell hath no fury like Peter & Gary scorned – and that saw the audience flock to another episode of My Kitchen Rules (1st – 1,797,000). Apart from the major news services only Home and Away (4th – 1,024,000) broke one million viewers. Everything else suffered at the hands of MKR, though the second episode of CSI (Ep2 11th – 705,000; Ep1 12th – 643,000) did win the later 9:30pm slot. The Straits (19th – 540,000) sadly almost didn’t rate a blip up against CSI & Grey’s Anatomy (8th – 776,000), though it did better than Law & Order: SVU (21st – 460,000). The Project (23rd – 414,000) up slightly but out of the game and Excess Baggage well out of the game on GO! with only 104,000.
