MasterChef still the hottest show around

MasterChef is maintaining a comfortable lead at the top of the television ratings.

The show's team relay night kept it at the No.1 spot for the second night running, according to OzTAM's overnight ratings figures.

The Network Ten cookery show was a much hotter prospect than its timeslot rival House Rules (763,000).

However, Ten's weekly drama Wonderland failed to make it in the top 10 and just made it into the top 20 as its season finale aired.
