The gruelling finale of SAS Australia may have seen three celebs pass the test, but it also proved a bit of a fizzer for Seven.
With just 737,000 metro viewers tuning in (OzTAM data), the finale didn’t pull much more of a crowd than any other normal night.
Rugby player and former Bachelor Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins, comedian Merrick Watts and AFLW player Sabrina Frederick all passed the course, while James Magnussen was eliminated.
However, Seven did secure the primary channel share win with 20.2 per cent. Nine followed with 16.4 per cent. Meanwhile, ABC did 12.8 per cent, and 10 did 11.0 per cent. SBS came last on 5.3 per cent.
Nine’s Hot Seat was its best entertainment programme 441,000. 10’s best for the night was its 7pm news program on 441,000, while ABC’s Outback Ringer did 382,000.
