Looking at Sky1's ratings for House, then comparing them with Glee's figures on E4 , show Sky1's policy of paying big money for US shows that have done ok on terrestrial isn't doing too much for their ratings.

The episode on last night was a repeat of Sunday's which pulled 414k (2.3%) first time round. Still, much lower than Glee but then you have to consider that Sky1 is available in far fewer homes than E4 is.

BBC1 launched its daytime drama 'Missing' yesterday to a decent audience. It managed to build on its Doctor's lead-in and last year's season average by 2 share points.
Looks like the evening soaps are starting to drop now that the evenings are lighter that little bit longer - only 12 days until the clocks change as well. Home And Away on Five recovered well though, after falling below 900k last Friday.

Drat, beaten by dave01 above!

This Morning's rating looks slightly higher than usual, maybe the 'Sex Week' will boost it further?

I'd have like to have seen some of last year's Comic Relief combinations back, espeically David Tennant/Davina McCall and Fern Brittain/Alan Carr.

That is exactly why I'm not tuning in this year, I watch all these things, Children in Need, Comic/Sport Relief, and I usually donate, but my TV won't be able to live through James Corden, and I'm not sure I have insurance.

Just seen last nights Chuck ratings and they are not pretty , 5.78m and 1.9 18-49.

James Corden has some check appearing on the BBC at the moment, given that he basically jumped ship from the BBC for Sky the first chance he got.

He's not an exclusive contract with the BBC or Sky is he?

Five Days timeshifted well, 8.36m for the Monday episode making it the 10th most watched show of the year.

Anyone know how the figures compare to Collision?

People have been complaining about ITV using the same old faces everytime, but this list is the same old BBC faces.

Gary - only connection back to it being Sport Relief
Christine, James - flavour of the month lately
Richard - Flavour of the decade, since his accident he's everywhere.
Fearne, Davina - always appear on stuff like this
Patrick - He also turns up on stuff like this as well

Very quiet night, ABC ran some Bachelor specials to fill 8-10pm then a Castle repeat. CBS went all repeats apart from Rules of Engagement (which was down to 7.76m and a 2.7 rating).

FOX:
8pm - House - 11.20m (4.0)
9pm - 24 - 9.03m (2.7)

NBC:
8pm - Chuck - 5.78m (1.9)
9pm - Trauma - 5.25m (1.5)
10pm - Law & Order - 6.90m (1.8)

Viewing at 8pm by adults 18-49 went down by 11% from last week (most likely due to Daylight Savings Time). Both House and Chuck fell 17% and Chuck hit a new low having performed well so far.

CBS comedy repeats at 9pm averaged a 3.8 rating, crushing "24" on FOX.

In late night, Leno's 1.2 rating among adults 18-49 pipped Letterman's 1.0. However, it's still nothing for NBC to be pleased about as Conan was averaging around 1.0-1.1 for the week before the controversy set in.

A lot of it is to do with loyalties to Comic/Sport Relief.

Davina, even during her peak years on ITV primetime and on Big Brother would do anything they wanted. Fearne Cotton and Patrick Kielty similarly.

Claudia is friends with Richard Curtis.

Gary Lineker has hosted every Sport Relief and helped front the first campaign.

Great official numbers for Five Days. It timeshifted very well indeed, especially on Wednesday night when football pinned down its overnight ratings a little.

The average across the week is 7.84m, which needless to say - is superb. Only just behind the average for last years series of New Tricks. I think those numbers also make it the most successful of any of the stripped event dramas we've seen over the last couple of years.

Timely boost for BBC Drama.

The soaps are down a bit, but the main two will still be above 10m in the officials so it isn't that bad. Good to see Coronation Street back on top.

Emmerdale is still going strong, wasn't it getting figures about a million lower not long ago.

Panorama seems a tad higher this week, was it a more populist topic?

MSO is on the edge of being recommissioned, I imagine it has a young audience, so that may work in it's favour.

The episodes are repeated on BBC HD at 6.30 each evening (after Doctors in HD. just as on BBC 1) so this daily 'time shift' ad on needs to be taken into account for both.

Sport Relief is too close to Children in Need and too far away from Comic Relief in my opinion.

I.e, too much BBC1 CiN style naff entertainment, 'People from hit BBC1 show take part in other hit BBC1 show' etc.

Comic Relief always feels more special if you get what I mean.

Only just. Collision wasn't far behind with 7.45m across the week.

Yeah its average is 400k higher than collision [7.45] and Oliver got [6.82] in the run up to Christmas 2007

Although I'll probably get lambasted in the process for saying this, but the new BARB system helps dramas like this as they are bound to timeshift a lot more - I think Five Days was behind Collision in the overnights, but now ahead.

Surely you also have to take into account the fact that the iPlayer is a much better catch-up service than ITV Player.

I don't think that's a factor as such, but remember Collision wasn't shown in Scotland. If it was, it would be ahead of Five Days. No discredit to Five Days though, as that is a fantastic performance.

ITV Press Centre confirms that The Door is launching on Good Friday (April 2) at 9pm. I thought it'd be just filler during the World Cup. Having read through the PI, it doesn't sound too bad, but against HIGNFY it doesn't have much of a chance.

Married Single Other isn't doing particularly well, but I wouldn't label it as a flop either. It's 16-34 numbers are very good, and whilst the show is flawed, it is improving and I think ITV could do a lot worse than give it another chance. It all depends what Laura Mackie wants I suppose, but I don't know what criteria she has for a hit.

Oh yeah, agree - they're both fantastic performances, and both for recommission.

It's only two parts which suggests to me that it may also be on Bank Holiday April 5th. Either that, or it'll be on April 9th as well, which leaves 7 9pm slots on Fridays before Britain's Got Talent.

I don't think it'll do well, because Tarrant and Holden are not ratings draws. Tarrant was, but no longer is. Holden never was, and never will be.

I also thought that ITV axed The South Bank Show?

They've also confirmed that the Dancing on Ice Final will air from 19:50 to 22:00, which is beyond stupid scheduling - it should be on in my opinion from 18:50 to 21:00, with something good following it.
