Ten gained strongly from the last episode of MasterChef Australia, which leapt from 716,000 to 1,057m. The 7.30 start put it an hour into Nine’s Australia’s Got Talent, almost steady on 1,124m, and Seven’s X-Factor down 222,000 at 1.3m. Last week was a bonus for Seven, as it was the live performance edition.
