And the big one supposedly lots of people especially in this thread are looking forward to.
Was not expecting Broadchurch to get a finale bump like that. It didn't seem to have the same momentum. Clearly this "switch off" has been somewhat over-exaggerated.

Another strong night for #EastEnders - the most watched show of the day with 8.4m viewers on @BBCOne
Excellent for EastEnders, would be nice if it maintains another week above 7.5m, would boost the average.
I wasn't expecting a 9m week again! Hopefully we can have another couple of big numbers before/during Easter before the inevitable summer drop and then some strong plots seeded for the fall. I want Christmas Day to be 10m+ this year, and if anybody can do it, its DTC!

UK TV ratings is reporting 6.1m inc +1. Something not adding up here.
Anyone got the series averages for both series to hand? Thanks.
This series has averaged 6.28m. Series 1 averaged 7.10m.
However this series has been timeshifting a lot more than series 1 so expect that gap to close in the officials. Series 1 had a consolidated average of 9.37m. Episodes 1-6 of series 2 averaged 9.14m. With episodes 7 and 8 in I'd expect that to maybe rise slightly to 9.2m, so pretty close all in all.
Is ITV interested in timeshift at all? Or the question is if the advertisers are interested in it?
time shift will still increase the amount of people who see the adverts but only marginally, as most will skip.
it also helps with their argument for carriage fees as they can argue people want to see their content using technology that damages their business model.

I turn the television off.
There is no reason for anyone to have to watch "something average" on TV for the sake of it.

That's really good for Broadchurch, aggregated I know but still a great figure. I did think 6m was a bit low.
Another great rating for EE. Let's hope it keeps the momentum.

Never got into Broadchuch myself but with everything included 7.8 million would appear excellent for a drama today.
#EastEnders beat #CoronationStreet to be yesterday's most watched programme, pulling in 8.4m.

Edit: now updated to 7.9m including +1.
UK TV ratings has deleted that tweet and is now reporting 7.85m.
It got 8.4
Ah right. Good result then.

Half a million suddenly remembered they had ITV HD between 9 and 10pm?
I have!
Overnight Average for Series 1 - 6.71m/7.11m (26.8%/28.9%)
Overnight Average for Series 2 - 5.64m/6.05m (23.1%/25.7%)*
*Series 2 average does not include the finale, I'll post a full summary once we get confirmation of those figures.
This series has averaged 6.28m. Series 1 averaged 7.10m.
However this series has been timeshifting a lot more than series 1 so expect that gap to close in the officials. Series 1 had a consolidated average of 9.37m. Episodes 1-6 of series 2 averaged 9.14m. With episodes 7 and 8 in I'd expect that to maybe rise slightly to 9.2m, so pretty close all in all.
Didn't you see the X Files tv ratings episode Mike.
Different audience, different demographic.
BC viewers presumably more capable than Corrie pensioners finding their HD channels or having them in the first place?
time shift will still increase the amount of people who see the adverts but only marginally, as most will skip.
it also helps with their argument for carriage fees as they can argue people want to see their content using technology that damages their business model.
Whilst they air new dramas on three other nights of the week and this 'cheap factual' is only to fill the weeks between football matches.
I'm sure I did see it, but I can't remember the details
Anyway I guess watching Broadchurch on ITV HD is more appealing than Corrie, the scenery is better.
