Neighbours special struggles in TV ratings

There was no warm and fuzzy feeling for Neighbours' 30th Anniversary Special, while My Kitchen Rules put an even bigger space between itself and The Block.

Network Ten's heavily promoted 90-minute Neighbours Anniversary Special limped in to 25th place with 429,000 viewers despite airing in the plum 7.30pm timeslot.

It was more than 1.3 million viewers behind the number one show My Kitchen Rules (1.756 million) and well behind ninth-placed The Block Triple Threat (861,000) on OzTAM's overnight ratings.

My Kitchen Rules increased its audience and put a bigger space between itself and The Block after I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! ended on Sunday.
