Ali Clarke has finished fourth in the final radio ratings of the year, following her swansong at Mix 102.3.
The breakfast program Max and Ali in the Mornings, co-hosted by Max Burford, recorded 10.7 share points – up 0.3 on last survey, when the show was in fifth place.
Clarke, who has been battling breast cancer, farewelled listeners on Friday, November 29.
Her replacement will be announced exclusively by The Advertiser on Saturday, December 14.
But in the meantime, Mix is no longer Adelaide’s No.1 station overall; that honour now goes to Triple M, which recorded 13.7 share points, up 1.1. Mix dipped 1.1 to finish runner up on 12.4.
Triple M can also boast still having Adelaide’s No.1 breakfast show. Roo, Ditts and Loz was the clear winner in brekky with 16.1, up 1.3.
Hosts Mark Ricciuto, Chris Dittmar and Laura O’Callaghan have been in that enviable position all year and for 15 consecutive surveys.
FIVEaa breakfast co-hosts David Penberthy and Will Goodings are in second spot again on 13.1, up 0.9.
Nova 919’s Jodie Oddy and Andrew Hayes were in third place, after a significant gain in share points.
Their result of 12.4, up 1.8, is the station’s best result in the timeslot since 2008.
With Mix fourth, ABC Adelaide breakfast presenters Jules Schiller and Sonya Feldhoff fell to fifth spot, with 10.1, dropping 0.8 share points.
Bec Morse and Mark Soderstrom’s successors on SAFM’s brekky show – Bernie Vince and Emma Georgiadis, who made their debut on Monday, November 11 – are in seventh spot with 6.9, falling 0.9.
Easy listening Cruise 1323 – Mix’s sister station – was sixth with 7.0 share points, up 0.1.
Clarke is yet to reveal her next move but has hinted on Instagram that she is looking at doing a podcast with Shane Lowe, who is also a former employee at Mix.
