Nine dominant on Sunday as AFL grabs more viewers than NRL

Nine had a dominant win on Sunday night with Big Brother getting a slight audience lift following the reintroduction of last year’s winner Tim Dormer to the house.

Seven’s exclusive interview with former Prime Minister John Howard failed to fire as Sunday Night, on at 8pm, only managed 1.058m viewers, while Nine’s rival 60 Minutes at 8.10pm got 1.22m viewers. ABC’s new drama The Code, starting at 8.30pm, had 771,000 viewers on debut.

The night was won by The Block: Glasshouse, which grabbed 1.664m viewers at 6.30pm comfortably ahead of Seven’s The X Factor which had 1.131m viewers in the same slot. Ten’s film Iron Man 2, running from 6.30pm to 9pm, had 448,000 viewers.
