Last night was a quiet night in TV land, with quiz programs and news taking the majority of the top spots. On ten, MasterChef did the numbers, raking in a total TV national reach of 1,183,000.
Judges challenged contestants to go back to their university days and make an immunity-worthy dish in just 75 minutes using a microwave hack.

Give me a break. Microwave cooking on MasterChef. Seriously #MasterChefAU

On Nine, The Summit once again did wonders, achieving a total TV national reach of 1,483,000 as contestants faced tougher inclines and more treacherous terrain in the air that thinned rapidly the higher they hiked.
