Seven’s Plate of Origin finale suffers the worst ratings of the entire SEASON – as just 335,000 tune in to watch Team Greece win $100,000

The Plate of Origin finale aired on Seven on Tuesday and absolutely tanked.  

As Mumbrella reports, the final episode was the lowest rating episode of the entire season, no doubt a major blow for the network. 

The publication reports that for the three-hour double episode finale, 349,000 metro viewers tuned in for the first part, while just 335,000 watched the second.

The Block meanwhile won the night, with 807,000 viewers. 

It comes after Plate of Origin drew in 667,000 for the premiere.
