Building on an excellent first quarter, 10 continued to dish up the top entertainment in the second quarter. At the start of the week, 10 consistently won the key demographics for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday nights from 7:30-10:30pm.
Super Sundays, Mad Mondays and Top Tuesdays saw audiences get into the kitchen with MasterChef Australia and then stayed on 10 for the laughs with Have You Been Paying Attention? and The Cheap Seats.
Audiences are loving it live and on demand with growth in live stream and BVOD audiences across the board on 10 Play with the platform seeing growth of more than 20% on last year.
