A heavily promoted ‘There’s Something About Marrying’ was postponed by half an hour in Australia last night, but that didn’t stop viewers tuning in to discover which character was gay. The first run Season 16 episode was the highest rating show on any station on Tuesday night, which had similar competition to Sunday’s season finale in America. 1.5 million viewers tuned in to Channel Ten at 8pm to watch the episode, outrating every other show that night. The finale of Survivor Palau aired on competitor Nine at 8:30pm, but was only able to record an average of 1.4 million viewers. Contrasting figures to the ones in the report below. To give you an idea of the Australian figures, the highest rated show in Australia last year had 3.3 million viewers. Ten came third overall for the night while Nine came out on top.
