The Block handed Nine a Tuesday night win after the reno show topped the time sheets last night as Tuesday’s most watched show with 987,000 viewers.

Nine took home 31.3 per cent of last night’s eyeballs, while rival Seven had to settle for 26.3 per cent. Ten snared third with 18.4 per cent, with the ABC hot on its heels with 16.5 per cent. The SBS had 7.5 per cent.

The Block aside, Nine’s other standouts were its 6pm news bulletin that enjoyed 860,000, ACA with 781,000, True Story With Hamish And Andy pulled 640,000 and Hot Seat with 473,000.

Over at Seven, its 6pm news bulletin was its top-rater with 937,000. Home And Away pulled 642,000 and The Chase had 575,000. Sadly, dating show Take Me Out can’t seem to find much of an audience, pulling 504,000.

Ten’s best was Survivor with 664,000, The Project had a neat half-a-million, Pointless had 271,000 and Bull managed 257,000.

The ABC’s evening ran thus: 6pm news (709,000), 7.30 (556,000), Foreign Correspondent (437,000), Catalyst (382,000) and David Attenborough’s Conquest Of The Skies (232,000).

Over at the SBS, it was again trains doing the business, a repeat of Great Continental Railway Journeys pulling 294,000.
