Waterloo Road well done on last week. Thats surprising. The Carpenters rating is about 1.5m higher than I expected.
I would think the Sky Sports effect of the Ireland vs France game would be much higher than the RTE overflow impact in NI which at best would rate at 150-200k in my opinion. |

Interesting to see IACGMOOH down to 8.0m.
I really do think the Katie Price addition this year has backfired. People have got their pound of flesh from Katie too early on in the series what with her continuous trials. Not sure how this can be topped given the other celebrities are very much in the backseat so far. I'm suspecting ratings will slide further but settle at the 7.0-7.5m mark pre the final. |

PETER FINCHAM INTERVIEW in Broadcast http://www.broadcastnow.co.uk/news/b...008313.article Quote:
On his shopping list are more big entertainment programmes for Fridays and Sundays as well as the traditional Saturday night slots, one-hour mainstream comedies and a “varied diet” of dramas.
We havent seen much "big entertainment" on Friday nights yet from ITV1Quote:
ITV’s Christmas schedule this year will include several pantomimes; A Night of Heroes, showcasing the Sun Military Awards; an Ant and Dec Christmas special; Piers Morgan’s Review Of The Year and Harry Hill’s alternative view in TV Burp Review Of The Year. Mr Fincham likes his pantomines. Cant recall the last one on a primetime terrestial channel
Coronation Street stars will take on Emmerdale cast members in All Star Family Fortunes. Four single dramas will also be screened - Mr Eleven, Sleep With Me, The Fattest Man In Britain and An Englishman In New York, alongside new episodes of Marple. |

It now has 5 straight days of lead-ins from Corrie and X Factor, so it'll be fine. |

I'm a Celebrity's rating looks poor - but don't forget it started at 20:30. I suspect the first half an hour brought the average down. Good for the Carpenters programme before it. Poor night for BBC One. I don't think Waterloo Road dipped because of the Carpenters, I think it dipped because of.... France vs Republic of Ireland - Ratings - Programme Average: 976,000 - Match Average: 1.2m (20:00 to 22:30) - Peak: 1.45m between 22:00 to 22:30 Source: MG Another shocking night for Channel 4 and Five though.

As for Celebrating the Carpenters being a pilot for a potential series, how is it any different to ...Mania, which they did about twenty episodes of? I remember 80s Mania was kept on the shelf for about two years. |

UK TV Guide has updated with schedules for week beginning Saturday 12th December. Not too much stands out in the week, as most of ITV's schedule is glittered with 'To Be Announced', but here are the provisional weekend schedules:
Saturday 12th December BBC One 18:05 - Merlin 18:50 - Strictly Come Dancing 20:05 - The National Lottery Draws 20:15 - Casualty 21:05 - The Impressions Show with Culshaw and Stephenson 21:35 - Strictly Come Dancing: Results Show 22:05 - BBC News 22:25 - Match of the Day ITV1 18:30 - Regional News 18:45 - ITV News 19:00 - New You've Been Framed! 19:30 - Harry Hill's TV Burp 20:00 - The X Factor 21:30 - TBA 22:30 - ITV News Sunday 13th December BBC One 18:00 - Life (R) 19:00 - Sports Personality of the Year 2009 21:00 - Small Island 22:30 - BBC News 22:55 - Match of the Day ITV1 18:15 - Regional News 18:30 - ITV News 18:45 - Harry Hill's TV Burp (R) 19:15 - All Star Family Fortunes 20:00 - The X Factor 21:00 - TBA 22:00 - ITV News Obviously the thing to note is the two TBA's. We can assume that the Susan Boyle show is on the Sunday. The only thing that could change is the length of The X Factor, whether it maybe 90 minutes from 19:30 to 21:00 or even 20:00 to 21:30. |

Another shocking night for Channel 4 and Five though.
The first two weeks of November show a continuation of this trend - C4 overall share is 6.1% in both the first two weeks of November compared to 6.9% overall for November 2008. And the poor numbers keep continuing. I think what is happening is as follows: 1) As everybody knows, multichannel ratings growth has had a major adverse effect on all 5 terrestrials. 2) There are now signs that BBC1 and ITV1 are "fighting back" (not growing but stabilising) primarily due to the success of high profile "big hitting" programmes. 3) The result is a collosal squeeze on Channel 4 and Five - they are under firece attack on two fronts (ie multichannel and BBC1/ITV1). Both are having to make big cuts and they don't have the resources or "impact" to fight back. Look in particular at the Channel 4 line on the BARB chart: http://www.barb.co.uk/graph/viewingShare?_s=4 We may be moving to a position where the TV "ecology" is: - two big channels (ie BBC1/ ITV1) - everything else |

So the game was available but Five couldn't afford it. They can't compete. |

This is the sort of game that would have been perfect for Five.

It is rumoured to have cost 'several million', RTE have not disclosed what they paid for it! Would Five have that budget for one game?

Reports say it was sold in the end for 600,000 Euros in TOTAL to RTE and Sky. Split not reported of how that broke down between RTE and Sky.

Really surprised how well Celebrating the Carpenters did, I thought it would do low 4m. IAC was down although I wonder if the emphasis on Katie Price has turned viewers off? BBC One had a good night with Waterloo Road and Spooks while BBC Two had a good with Making of Modern Britain and a repeat of Top Gear doing well and even Buzzcocks is faring okay, Channel 4 and Five had terrible nights and I bet both can't wait until January when their big hitters return.
Wonder if a third of Modern Britain series is on the cards, it is down on the last one but still a decent performer. |

Was looking on the Wall to Wall website and it appears they are doing a UK version of Find My Family for ITV1 which has been a success in Australia and about to launched in America. I think this show could do well given how successful WDTYA have done.

Shocked at those Carpenters ratings! I think cutting Emmerdale to 30 minutes on Tuesday has been good for it but makes the 8pm slot even harder to fill on Tuesdays. I wonder would this still have done well with a lead in from something like Countryfile? It was definitely promoted a lot. Quote:

Also there's no guarantee that So You Think You Can Dance will be a success over here. I was looking at the American ratings and it does well with younger viewers, but the overall viewership wasn't that great at all (around 6-8m). I hope it does turn out to be a success as the BBC's light entertainment output at the moment is quite poor in comparison to what ITV has to offer.
But 7 episodes of SYTYCD is a bit short and as you say, it skews very young which is fine for ITV but not so good for the BBC. But with Arlene, Nigel and Cat all involved I think it will gain some wider press attention here. I think it will get around 5-6m (then again, I said that about Britain's Got Talent in 2007!). |

Any ITV drama executives reading may wish to look away...
AMC (the US cable channel behind Mad Men) aired The Prisoner in 3 2 hour blocks from Sunday-Tuesday. The ratings are not pretty: Sunday - 2.2m Monday - 0.95m Tuesday - 0.95m http://tvbythenumbers.com/2009/11/18...d-outing/34018 |
