A significant 774,000 Australians tuned in to ABC’s Four Corners last night, according to OzTAM metro numbers, to watch a segment on the alleged claims of inappropriate behaviour by current teachers at St Kevins’ College in Melbourne.
Complaints involved an allegation of sexual harassment and concerns about the possible grooming of students. Off the back of that, ABC’s primary channel earned itself a decent audience share of 16.4 per cent.
In less sordid news, Nine’s MAFS continues to dominate, with 1.09m viewers tuning in to see Poppy “My Husband Fell Into His Co-Worker’s Vagina” Jennings leave the show. In primary channel share, Nine earned 23.0 per cent.
Over at Seven, Home and Away was the top-watched show of the night with 600,000 views. Seven capped off the night with 17.9 per cent audience share on its primary channel.
