TEN'S reality show I Will Survive hosted by Hugh Sheridan was beaten by Neighbours on Ten's digital channel Eleven last night.

Ten's primary channel fell to a share of just 9.5 per cent as the network suffers the worst ratings slump since OzTAM ratings began and was again beaten by ABC1, which had a share of 13.7 per cent.

This was despite the excellent drama Puberty Blues, which gave the network another program in its top 15, averaging 673,000 in 14th spot, according to preliminary OzTAM data.

Ten News at Five was in 15th spot with 658,000.

Leading the night was Seven’s The X Factor again, with an audience of 1.50 million, way in front of the next non-news show Big Brother on Nine with 951,000.

Big Brother was beaten by the ABC News (1.05 million) at 7pm and Home and Away (943,000) on Seven.


The ABC’s Gruen Planet was also strong last night, averaging 939,000 and a repeat of QI was in 13th spot with 724,000.

On a network share Seven won the night with 33.3 per cent, Nine was second with 26.2 per cent, the ABC third with 18.5, Ten 16.0 per cent and SBS 5.9 per cent.
