Thanks Mike. So around 8.2m for Strictly in the clash period, still a brilliant rating for it considering the clash, not all down to those last 15 minutes then.
"Such a shame they were both on at the same time!" = I might have lost but we're still going to come after the BBC in the press. ;-)

So what does this mean for when Strictly returns. Is Charlotte Moore that desperate to clash with XF that we're going to find more than 30minutes overlap?
ITV should just stick with 8pm for XF, then LIVE shows move it to 7:30/7:45pm so its not going beyond 10pm.
But I thought Strictly's line-up was poor? :confused
I think the magic of Strictly comes from making you like people you didn't necessarily know before. I'd argue all the winners haven't been the most famous people in the cast, Who would've heard of Mark Ramprakash, Abbey Clancy, Harry Judd or Tom Chambers, not exactly household names but their progression on the show made you like them and they went on to win the show- The cast is good, mixed and by the looks of the group dance, will be very competitive and entertaining and that's why the show works (and will continue to work long after XF is off air imo)

I've always said that it's stupid TXF Saturday show ending around 9.50pm (or later). ITV should have the show on earlier and last no more than 90 minutes.
If clashes happen then so be, SCD will have a greater catch up figure due to all powerful iPlayer (so BBC won't lose out).

I expected as much. Pretty much 8m from 8-9pm and the peak coming when X Factor ended.
Poor man?
The sad thing is Mr H, whatever low ratings his shows get he will still cane it in
Thanks for these. Both built their audiences, but that's great momentum for Strictly! I'm guessing CBB and Houdini didn't do too well?
I think that covers it.

So XF peaked only 0.2m behind Strictly? Well's that not too bad.
Of course.
Pretty much sums it up.
You no it's bad he's using peaks lol.
Well there's not much else he could say. They we're beat fair and square.
Head to Head 8-9pm
SCD = 8.20m
XF = 7.12m
Perfect summary.
But on the plus side, Louis Walsh can't gloat.

Houdini - 910k - I liked it, shame it wasn't a normal two hour film
CBB - 1295 (+1 202k)
At what point did XF peak at over 9m?

Jesus, that is awful for CBB. Not too bad for Houdini.

He'll scrape by. The X Factor wasn't too shabby last night to be honest.
Apart from that whole use your dead brother to inspire you thing.
