All Eyes on the Footy

28Sep09

The Newcastle TV Ratings, week ending September 26

Note: These ratings results are compiled using the combined resources of SC TEN, NBN & Prime’s weekly AGB Nielsen Media Research reports.

It is no surprise that last week all eyes were on the Rugby League semi’s and AFL finals. The AFL grand final helped SC TEN into the Top Ten Watched Programs for the week, however, not enough to give them higher ratings for the week. Our televisions were generally on NBN News and Football.
