Apart from the fourth Test against India which staged another big comeback, TV viewing yesterday was for the sleep challenged, and even then you needed alcohol.

Ten’s I’m A Celebrity clearly won the night with an elimination more than 1.05 million viewers nationally and the most watched program after Seven News and the final session of the Test. I’m A Celebrity is like watching rejects from FM radio breakfast and drive hostings.

Seven still won the night because of the big audience for the hour of news from 6pm (1.51 million) and then the reasonable figures for the BBL game (746,000).

In regional markets: Seven News, 516,000; session three, day three of the fourth Test, 391,000; session two, day three of the fourth Test, 329,000; Tea on three of the fourth Test, 316,000; 7pm ABC News, 311,000.
