However, it was the season launch of Nine's Married at First Sight which smashed Monday night, attracting 964,000 metro viewers, to top the ratings.

“We are thrilled to see Australia once again fall in love with Married At First Sight,” says  Nine’s program dDirector Hamish Turner.

“The successful Australian Open and now the launch of MAFS has given Nine the best start with Total People and 16-39s in more than a decade and our second best start with people 25-54s.

"We expect that the audience will again build across both linear TV and 9Now as Australia follows the journey of the experiment’s participants.”  

Nine won the night with 32.3% of the network share, followed by seven with 26.2% and ten with 17.2%
