President Obama plans some TV time on Tuesday December 1st (regarding Afghanistan).
http://tvbythenumbers.com/2009/11/24...cember-1/34584 It's not particularly helpful for FOX (who probably won't show it anyway) ABC or NBC. Recently, he has tended to place calls to higher ups at CBS Corp, General Electric and Disney to try and agree a more convenient time (in the summer, he was famously forced to reschedule when NBC said they wouldn't move an AGT special with Susan Boyle). So it could move. If he goes at 8pm, CBS would be fine as they have a repeat scheduled. NBC will drop Jay Leno and put The Biggest Loser from 9-11pm. ABC could also drop The Forgotten from 10pm and run everything an hour later, but they have a Disney special which they probably want to put in the 8pm hour. FOX have a 2 hour SYTYCD? so any time on Tuesday is bad for them and I can't see them dropping SYTYCD. |

Homes Under The Hammer (1.42m, 29.3%) and To Buy Or Not To Buy (1.31m, 27.8%) repeats, a new episode of Cash In The Attic (1.35m, 27.4%), and a repeat of Bargain Hunt (2.07m, 33.2%).
Some new ideas are sorely needed. |

Why didn't they bring it forward to 9pm tonight?
An obvious opportunity missed.Quote:
Have to agree it seems a bit odd that they didn't capatalise on it. They're only showing a repeat of Trinity in that slot.

Some very healthy timeshifts for the "super-sunday" a couple of weeks back. A shame to see Doctor Who pull up just a shade short on 10m - but still a very good performance. [/url]

He's certaintly had a lot of speeches compared to his predeccesors and I would imagine the networks were a bit fed up losing ad time last season especially FOX which was affected the most. |

Just adding to a point I read about This Morning getting a 30% share on Monday - it seems high, very high. The highest share I've seen it get was 24.3% when it went up against BBC One's State Opening of Parliament. I dont have data for Monday to hand, but I'll let you know when I get ahold of it for sure...
Today it had 1.08m (21.7%), comfortably beaten by BBC One's daytime line-up which consisted of Homes Under The Hammer (1.42m, 29.3%) and To Buy Or Not To Buy (1.31m, 27.8%) repeats, a new episode of Cash In The Attic (1.35m, 27.4%), and a repeat of Bargain Hunt (2.07m, 33.2%). This is the usual trend, This Morning is usually steady with roughly a 20% share loosing out to BBC One's line-up which typically averages 27% during the same period. |

Maybe 30% was a peak on Monday? Or maybe extra people tuned in on Monday hoping for some Celeb tittle-tattle.

Any ratings for the tennis on BBC3 last night, and also on Sky Sports - especially as from 10.30pm the BBC lost the pictures for almost half an hour, but apparently Sky didn't (despite the BBC telling us the whole world had lost pics!), so be interesting to see if there was any notable increase in Sky's audience for that period.

Digiguide have kind of updated until 25th although as you'd expect it's full of gaps.
However, they have Christmas Day on ITV1 as 19:00 Emmerdale 20:00 Coronation Street 21:00 Poirot : Appointment with Death Which is about as uninspiring as you could get really. The Fattest Man in Britain is down for 21:00 on Christmas Eve. |

I wonder if poor numbers for SYTYCD? in America may affect the numbers it gets over here for BBC...
Of course, the UK version's opposition on ITV doesn't look like it will be particularly tough - so BBC One are likely to be looking at at least 5m simply by default. I'm not expecting anything much more than the 6m region. That'd be OK, and likely returnable - but it aint a home run. |

The Fattest Man in Britain is down for 21:00 on Christmas Eve. So, the state we are in at the moment: - all schedules up until 18th December confirmed. - schedules from 19th to 24th/25th December provisional. SCD Final night looks interesting, and in my view puts Merlin in an absolutely abysmal slot: Saturday 19th December 2009 BBC One 17:30 - Merlin 18:20 - Strictly Come Dancing 19:40 - Casualty 20:30 - The National Lottery Draws 20:40 - Strictly Come Dancing: Results Show 21:40 - Live at the Apollo 22:10 - BBC News I can see that changing because Casualty looks too early in that schedule, and The Impressions Show appears to have gone missing. ITV's schedule for the Saturday is TBA - quite literally. Sunday 20th December has TBA for both BBC One and ITV1 from 8pm onwards, that's because Antiques Roadshow is on at 7pm. You would say Countryfile would be there, but the Christmas edition of Countryfile is airing on Thursday 17th December. Monday 21st December in the 9pm slot has Crimewatch on BBC One and "The Millies: A Night of Heroes" from 9pm to 10:30pm on ITV1. ITV1 could actually amazingly win that 9pm slot. Uninspiring from both channels, though. Tuesday 22nd December and Wednesday 23rd December show no major surprises - TBA's along with the usual. Christmas Eve - Provisional Schedule BBC One 06:00 - BBC Breakfast 08:50 - The Sarah Jane Adventures 09:20 - Doctor Who 10:05 - Shaun the Sheep 10:20 to 13:05 - TBA 13:05 - BBC News 13:20 to 17:50 - TBA 17:50 - BBC News 18:10 - To Be Announced (FILM?) 19:30 - EastEnders 20:00 to close - To Be Announced ITV1 18:15 - ITV News and Weather 18:30 - To Be Announced (YBF probably) 19:00 - Emmerdale 19:30 - To Be Announced 20:00 - Emmerdale 20:30 - Coronation Street 21:00 - The Fattest Man in Britain Aah, the joys of Christmas Eve - Doctor Who on at 9:20am! ![]()

Well, I think it just underlines that its no ratings behemoth. Did well in the demo's in the summer when theres little opposition (though overall viewership was never huge), but its struggling pretty badly against NCIS, The Biggest Loser and Dancing with the Stars.

I can guarantee that EastEnders will scheduled at the same time as Corrie at least once in the early schedules. There will be long discussions on here and then when the final schedules come out they will be completely different.
They will probably be normal episodes of Tonight or Panorama scheduled in error as well! Id like 630 and 9ish slots for EastEnders xmas day. Guess we will find out tommorow |

Uninspiring from both channels, though. Don't know why they need an hour long Strictly results show. It was only 45 minutes last year. And if they must have an hour long results show they don't need any post Strictly comedy. Sunday: Cranford is apparantly 2 feature length episodes. I predict it'll be on the Sundays either side of Xmas and no reason why it shouldn't start at 8pm. Monday: I said Crimewatch would be on on the 21st. Uninspiring, maybe, but it's a monthly show so it has to go somewhere and it qualifies as public service broadcasting. |

Paradox got the ratings it deserved - though had it not launched against Tits Out it would surely have started with 5m+. Be interesting whether its sheer awfulness attracts viewers as word of mouth spreads. Crossroads was very popular don't forget. 'Tits' definitely sagging now it's no longer boosted by its KP implants. I imagine it'll droop further without its sole USP. I bet no-one at all is watching tonight.. ![]() Quote:
The Old People's Home Show 1.51m (6.3%)

Top Gear's fantastic time shift offers some comfort for the sligtly lower ratings its been pulling the last two weeks.
Note that ep1 of TG pulled a very healthy 2.2m for its midweek repeat - so that puts it on 8.6m+ for ep1. Might be TG's most popular series ever... Quote:
In related news - theres a new BARB panel coming into use in January, and it looks like ratings are set for a 4% bump across the board.

0.38m viewers watched Dr Who on BBC HD, giving him a grand total of 10.32m
![]() As a point of interest, do ITV HD's ratings get reported separately or do they form part of ITV1's? As I understand it, you access ITV HD through the red button - it's not a channel as such - so does that make a difference? I understood that interactive red button services count towards the channel from which the viewer accesses them. Quote:

Considering SCD so often has lost an extra contestant along the way you'd think they'd start with one spare, and simply if no one is forced to quit have a double elimination one week.

So if this is the ITV Christmas night offering how did people think it will rate?
19:00 Emmerdale (5m) 20:00 Coronation Street (7.6m) 21:00 Poirot : Appointment with Death (4.4m) (My predictions in brackets) Against a BBC schedule possibly like this: 18:30 Doctor Who (11.2m) 19:35 Eastenders (11.5m) 20:05 SCD (8.0m) 21:05 EastEnders (12.0m) 21:35 The Royle Family (9.2m) Im guessing the schedule will overrun by a few minutes as it always does on BBC One with Doctor Who being the reason. |
