Channel Ten has rebounded from the humiliation that was Big Brother and is tearing younger viewers away from Channel Seven with Australian Idol, Thank God You’re Here and House.

The ABC is tearing older viewers away from both Seven and Nine with Midsomer Murders, and The Worst Jobs in History.

The result of this healthy competition was the closest-run week of the year, barely won by Seven with 27.6 per cent of the prime time audience, to Nine’s 27.0, Ten’s 23.1, ABC’s 17.3 and SBS’s 5.0.
