*clicks glass* Morning everyone, we have an announcement.
This year, there will be some new twists.
In the Battles, our coaches can STEAL a rival coach's artist from the ones that get out-battled. And after the Battles, we have a new round called THE KNOCKOUTS, where artists each pick their own "killer song" to perform. Coaches then take their favourite three to the finals. Exciting times.
At least someone is excited. The sad thing is you just know this show won't be worth watching when it gets to the Lives, same as last year
my sentence non ITV +1 is there for those who always think the second figure is +1
Didn't realise that would be so confusing
lol he will always find something to whinge about
The England rugby games must be the easiest ratings to predict. Last year the Eng/ Ire game got 5.7M for an essentially dead rubber game after Wales had won the slam. Figures never seem to vary more than +/- 10% for any of the games y-on-y.

The BBC didn't take long to trash the idea of a legitimate singing contest.
It's what happened with The Apprentice as well. First year was genuine, later years became soap opera reality telly with no point other than to entertain.

since the Beeb started moving the Eng matches to later in the day, figure have been great. Also splitting the matches so there aren't any clashes has been good for the competition
Shame the Friday night matches experiment ended, due to opposition from the national unions. Friday night rugby is popular in Friday in France, given a chance here it could do the same.
I await with interest what BT Vision going to do with Premiership matches.
I am hearing unconfirmed reports that Graham Norton is going to be leading the search for a new Pope as the BBC tries to put Animal Antics and Britains Borefest behind it............

Well if you predicted 5.7 you'd be wrong, as it got 6.1.
You must be salivating over those numbers and the demographic!
Far better than your overbought ruinously expensive football rights!

6 Nations - 5 games @ 6m; 5 games @ 3m; 5 games @ 4m = average of 4.3m
Game cost of £2.67M per game
England football games cost well under £2M per game but deliver bigger figures.
6 Nations contract has always been priced well above commercial market value. Its only value to a commercial channel would be at a lower price tag - say £25M per year or in picking only selective matches.
Looks like the schedules on Saturday 23rd February will be as follows:
BBC One
16:30 - Six Nations Rugby: England vs France
19:00 - BBC News
19:20 - Let's Dance for Comic Relief
20:40 - Lottery Draws
20:50 - Casualty
21:40 - TBA (Live at the Apollo?)
22:10 - BBC News
22:30 - Match of the Day
ITV
18:30 - ITV News
18:45 - You've Been Framed!
19:15 - Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway (currently TBA)
20:30 - Take Me Out
22:00 - The Jonathan Ross Show
23:00 - ITV News
The problem for ITV is that next week, Let's Dance goes against Oldham vs Everton. There's a good chance Let's Dance could beat that by 2:1 as Oldham vs Everton does not cut it for a Saturday evening game at all.
The two programs overlap significantly, as Oldham vs Everton kicks off at 18:00, so Let's Dance should find itself over 7m next Saturday. If that happens, Ant and Dec will have an uphill struggle, however it has had fantastic promotion and if I remember Let's Dance struggled slightly last year, so we shall see.
the main show, I completely forgot about results show
DoI Results - 4436 + 430
now that confusion I can understand
:eek:
Ouch. That looks really low.
Soon that argument that gets wheeled out in here every time one of ITV's juggernauts of yesteryear underperforms along the lines of "nothing else would rate as well in those slots" will not look credible with regard to DOI, as really ITV should have little problem clearing 5m in Sunday primetime at this time of year.
Comments
#CalltheMidwife was yesterday's highest rating show with 8.8m. The #BAFTA Film Awards averaged 5.4m, peaking at 6.2m #BBC1
At least someone is excited. The sad thing is you just know this show won't be worth watching when it gets to the Lives, same as last year
ITV Ratings - Mr Selfridge peaks with 6.5m and averages 6m. Dancing on Ice peaks with 7.8m, averaging 6.7m.
Jenny's ratings include +1 as per, so Dancing on Ice's main show average will be ~6.5m...
England vs Ireland in the #6Nations averaged a very impressive 6.1m (33%), peaking with 8.1m (37%).
Stonking figure! :eek:
DoI - 5596 + 536
Allstar FF - 4478 + 353
Mr Selfridge - 5259 + 550
yay for the rugby, just wish Beeb would have a better highlights show (and not lead with football on news, when rugby is biggest story of the day)
Rugby

Your figures are confusing, Mike, I assume you have posted sd and hd and your reference to +1 is there just to confuse us?
my sentence non ITV +1 is there for those who always think the second figure is +1
Didn't realise that would be so confusing

MotD2 - 1686
Die Hard 4.0 - 1850
Person of Interest - 909k
Die Hard 4.0 rated really well for C4. (2.1m inc. +1)
Is that for the main show or results show at 20:30?
the main show, I completely forgot about results show
DoI Results - 4436 + 430

Obviously that's not tape-checked, but still very poor.
if you're talking to me, then no it does not include ITV +1
I never include ITV +1, the second figure is always ITV HD (as we don't have them combined)
Well if you predicted 5.7 you'd be wrong, as it got 6.1.

I hope Bishop Len Brennan gets it.
