Just by a Hair

26Oct09

The Newcastle TV Ratings, week ending October 24

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

SC TEN this week is back on its game, reclaiming 3rd position on the ratings score board.

Although this week if it wasn’t for ‘Packed to the Rafters’ giving Prime a nice slice of an 85,000 viewing audience, it would have been in deep trouble. SC TEN just missed out on 2nd place by 1.1%!

What would happen I wonder without Prime’s favourite family?
