Prime - Most ‘Viewed’ Program

The Melbourne Cup was both the most talked about and watched program in Newcastle last week. Swapping the average day to day routine, for glamorous hats and the hopeful punt. Prime took first place on the leader board for having the highest amount of Novacastrians watching in dear hope they would score a small fortune, or for some lucky ones a large win! However unlike Bauer, NBN did take the win by more than a nose, leading the ratings game by 3.1 over Prime and a big 6.9 over TEN.
