Nine’s hopes of recapturing the week with Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire on Saturday were dashed when the ABC grabbed 1.4 million for Doc Martin, to Harry’s 1.3 million. And Seven’s last minute decision to replace Michael Palin’s New Europe with the thousandth repeat of Fawlty Towers proved justified, when John Cleese pulled 839,000 viewers — 100,000 more than his former Monty Python colleague.

By week’s end, audience shares in prime time were: Seven 29.0 per cent,
Nine 27.6, Ten 22.0, ABC 16.2 and SBS 5.3. The most watched shows of
the week were: 60 Minutes
(9) 1.73 m (apparently because it included a profile of Golden Ramsay);
Seven news Sunday (7) 1.68m; RSPCA Animal Rescue (7) 1.76m; Border
Security (7) 1.76m; and Bondi Rescue (10) 1.62m.
