Hamish and Andy go out with 883,000
The finale of Hamish and Andy’s Gap Year on Nine attracted an audience of 883,000, ranking it seventh most-watched for Thursday night.
The audience was a long way from its debut of 1.45 million but it had the highest five-city metro ratings for the 18-49, 16-39 and 25-54 demographics, according to preliminary metro ratings from OzTam.
Beauty and the Geek Australia on Seven saw its audience fall from its debut of 927,000 last week to 804,000. It was up against a three-hour grand final special of The Footy Show on Nine in Melbourne and Adelaide.
The Footy Show pulled 973,000 in five-city metro numbers.
Wasn’t Hamish & Andy on at 7.30 in most states last night? Therefore not up against Beaty & the Geek at 8.30?
Oops, Beauty & the Geek.
Hi Steph,
I have just checked with Nine and you’re right, Hamish and Andy aired at 7:30 in Melbourne and Adelaide last night due to a three-hour Footy Show special.
I have updated the story accordingly.
Cheers,

Rush is such a fantastic show. Shame it’s not pulling bigger figures. Perhaps TEN need to promote it a little harder.
@Leo G – absolutely agree, rush is one of the best shows on TV and great Aussie made drama. Ten should concentrate their marketing efforts on shows like this and less on “blockbusters” like Terra Nova – which was an unorginal blending of Jurassic Park and Lost, at best.
