The Glenn Dyer breakdown: Another big night for The Voice, a fresh The Big Bang Theory and a reasonable performance by The Block and it’s a win for Nine. Seven’s Australia’s Got Talent was crushed, again, and fell below a million viewers (980,000) as the fickle young female viewers decamped from Seven’s offerings and focused on The Voice.

Tonight: Oh, no, not the Hoff! Yes, David Hasselhoff is on The Celebrity Apprentice on Nine after The Block. Seven has Australia’s Got Talent, then the first of the ITV series, Titanic. Ten has Offspring back at 8.30pm after 90 minutes of The Biggest Loser. The ABC has a nice series, Wild Life At the Zoo, at 8pm.
