Four networks in the 20s, led out by Seven with the ABC clearing 20% but trailing the others.
The Gruen Nation did well for the ABC with 1.028m. The Hamster Decides, immediately afterwards at 9.18, ran at 867,000. So 150,000 people climbed into the jarmies just after nine.
Offspring sailed through this flanellette crisis with 1.106m.
