Week 13 of 2015 ratings year.
This is quite the turnaround – but is it just about the mini-series? House Rules (4th -1,154,000) bounces to the reality win ahead of MasterChef Australia (5th – 1,043,000) – just as Marco Pierre White week starts – and Reno Rumble (7th – 841,000). It was all about the first part of Catching Milat (2nd – 1,387,000) which likely offered a serious halo to Seven’s struggling reno show. Consequently 60 Minutes (8th – 740,000) down also, though that could be due to the subject matter as much as anything.
