It's a ready-made audience though. They wouldn't get that on a normal day so it's not really that impressive. Family are all round, we gather round the TV, the BBC are the only ones who bother to put on an attractive line-up...

Got to love this headline :
X FACTOR: RECORD 25M SEE FINAL SING-OFF http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/...final-sing-off They say a further 5m people watched in pubs and 890,000 recorded the show. ![]() Quote:
Alesha Dixon anyone?

Hiya long time lurker of this thread although I don't post but I do find it very interesting and informative. Sorry to barge it but I wondered what you thought about the new series of Hustle being scheduled for Mondays at 9pm, from 4 January. I know it did really well its in Thursday slot earlier this year. Not sure what its up against either - any ideas?

As Sunday wasn't a normal Sunday for ITV1, we can discount those ratings too presumably?
ETA I'm not 'discounting' the ratings, I'm just suggesting that scoring ratings winners throughout the day isn't some incredible feat when it's on Xmas Day. |

Hi and welcome. It's up against the first episode of the new Above Suspicion 3 parter on ITV1, so a tough start for it.

Thought it might be interesting to discuss what we feel the future of TV is in the next decade. Will linear TV still be the norm in 2020? Or will it all be on demand? It's a tough call.
Event TV still exists. Shows like The X Factor can't not be shown live. But dramas and other things people increasingly prefer to watch when they can. I predict HD will be the norm by 2020. i.e. the majority of sets will be HD and nearly all programmes in the schedule will be HD. We may even be in the age of majority 3D! I think linear schedules will remain but be less important, but that catchup/PVR will be far more consolidated under one umbrella. I don't think we're going to see a switch to people watching on computers. It's not the same as watching on a far larger screen in your lounge. It's going to be more about convenience, surely? Perhaps TV sets will have built in catchup service for all the broadcasters, sort of like a hybrid of the various offerings at the moment, in addition to the live channels. For channels like ITV, you can either watch for free or a subscription based model gives you all shows ad-free (Spotify-esque) It's hard to know. Thinking about it, it's so interesting. I'd love to think in the future TV will still be a huge part of people's lives and the days of big numbers are not coming to an end too fast. Schedule wise, it's impossible to guess where will be. Will the current big hitters still exist? Will the soaps have been increased, scaled back or shelved entirely? Will the UK be more like America with its pilot / long-season orders? And what about ratings? Will the BARB system still be in force or something more universally accurate? It's fascinating to imagine how the landscape will change. At the minute it's so difficult to tell where it's going. Answers on a postcard! Interesting articles: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8272003.stm http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...ure-of-TV.html http://www.sony.com/SCA/speeches/041118_stringer.shtml "The old TV world is fading fast and the future is here." "In practice, the television as we know it now is here to stay: the technology inside is evolving at breakneck speed, but there’s still a place for leaning back and watching – just as Logie Baird envisaged." "Channels will be increasingly non linear creating an opportunity to shape programs for a different screen size and a different attention span." "We're working with Toshiba and IBM on a new chip inside the TV that will give television viewers the kind of control you've come to expect from a PlayStation or a set top box. If the only thing that interests you in a football match is learning how to bend it like Beckham, you'll be able to zoom in on Beckham for the entire match and watch his every move." "With the television landscape in a state of constant upheaval, will tomorrow's programming be televised reality freak shows updated for the 21st century? Or post-modern masterpieces? In a 300-, 400-, 500-channel universe, both seem not only plausible but likely." "The world well knows the treasures British culture has produced in the past. I am confident that today's more diverse, more dynamic, more digital British television industry has the ability not only to meet the expectations of a global market for new digital content." Scary really! |

Digiguide has updated for the second week of January and there are some interesting things:
CSI starts on the 12th January CSI: NY starts on the 9th January NCIS starts on 10th January Numb3rs starts on 10th January Paul Merton in Europe is on 15th January NCIS along with Numb3rs moving to Wednesdays is interesting but the day was underpeforming and I imagine the ad revenue on Wednesdays are higher than on Fridays, Paul Merton in Europe on Thursday is interesting as I expected to go on Mondays but with no football in January, I guess Five are confident it can compete with Silent Witness and The Bill whereas Mondays it would had to competed with Hustle and I suspect Law and Order UK. |

Accidentally On Purpose, Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother all hit season highs. CBS took the entire top 5. Lie to Me struggled for FOX without a House lead-in. |

Here's the betting on Which soap comes out top on xmas day
Eastenders 1/5 Coronation Street 10/3 Emmerdale 100/1 I think we all know EastEnders will come out on top and i don't see ratings falling fast either with everything they have lined up for the new year |
