Ten’s I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here grows modestly while Downton Abbey gets huge time shift boost

Last night’s I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here eviction of Andrew Daddo pulled 783,000 metro viewers to Ten in the 6.30pm timeslot, according to preliminary overnight figures from OzTam.

The eviction was up on last week when 756,000 metro viewers tuned in to see Lauren Brant kicked out of the jungle, wihile the rest of the show held the same audience of 660,000 metro viewers as last week for the simulcast episode across Ten, One and Eleven according to OzTam’s overnight preliminary figures.

The show was easily out-rated by rival reality franchises, with Nine’s The Block: Triple Threat at 7pm claiming a metro audience of 1.016m to be the most-watched non-news show of the week while Seven’s My France with Manu was watched by 798,000 metro viewers – down on last week’s audience of 945,000.

The second outing of Downton Abbey on Seven at 9pm saw its audience remain stable, with the UK drama series posting a metro audience of 774,000, a modest increase on last week’s audience of 772,000.
