News anyone? It’s everywhere, and somewhat rightly so – particularly as the floods pick up in Victoria also. The 7pm Project will be looking forward to the start of Ch10’s new 6PM with George Negus and the localised 6:30pm News services to commence next week, hoping that their ratings may boost a little also, after being down a little last night compared to last week. There are no separate ratings for the Today Show for the Qld edition vs the national edition, but I can confirm in Brisbane it beat Sunrise.

Not a bad start to the second week for Eleven (and first Monday for them) – 5 of the Top15 shows are theirs, 3 in the Top5. Neighbours is performing well, especially in the 16-39 demographic Ch10 are targeting. 7Two was the clear winner for the night, however Eleven was a strong second. Fans of Supernatural and Dexter will be glad to have it back on their screens.
