10’s Australian Survivor – with its star-studded cast – launched to some impressive numbers last night.
It managed 807,000 metro viewers last night and was up 13 per cent on last year according to 10.
The network’s chief content officer, Beverley McGarvey, said: “Last night’s Australian Survivor launch was a fantastic start to what we believe is the best season yet.
“A huge thanks and congratulations to the all the competitors, Jonathan and the brilliant team behind the scenes who have put together yet another amazing season. These contestants really are here to play and we can’t wait to share more of what’s to come.”
