Yesterday morning 4 networks broadcast a Live court verdict in the infamous Mushroom Murders case.
Here’s how the numbers stacked up for scheduled programming yesterday morning:
The Morning Show: 372,000 / 174,000
Today Extra: 259,000 / 155,000
ABC News Mornings: 143,000
(Midsomer Murders: 74,000)

This compares with 273,000 for The Morning Show last Monday and 192,000 for Today Extra, for example.
It’s worth noting that only one figure is available for both ABC and ABC News channels, meaning it could well be an average across two broadcasts.
