Friday 11th June 2010
14:30 to 17:00 - World Cup 2010: 4.3m (46%)
19:00 to 22:00 - World Cup 2010: 6.3m

Source: Digital I on Twitter

Both very solid numbers, in particular for the first game. In comparison to 2006:

09/06…16:00-19:00…4.6m (39%)… Germany v Costa Rica (4-2)…BBC1
09/06…19:30-22:00…5.3m (28%)… Poland v Ecuador (0-2)…ITV1

So actually, yesterday on the whole did much better than 2006 all considering.

EDIT: No idea if yesterday's include HD or what... numbers may just be match average.

I imagine at least one rating will be available early tomorrow.

Although as the football can have about half a dozen ratings (with or without HD, match only, peak etc) it still won't be clear.

The source tomorrow should state whether it includes HD - it normally does.

Anyway, two footy ratings above.

Very strong figures there! I didn't expect over 4m for the first match coverage, especially considering that covers pre/post analysis and the fact the match was on ITV.

Bodes well for future matches..

I wonder if those ratings are the overall coverage average or match average? They do seem high compared to the last World Cup, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's just the match average. Good ratings either way.

Blimey! If those figures are correct then I've probably underestimated England tonight.

Looks like there's considerable interest in this World Cup (perhaps enhanced by the non event of Euro 2008) and we might not see much of a tournament-on-tournament decline, if any.

Wow, those are some strong ratings for the games.
Hope BB wasnt affected too much

Whether these figures are match average or programme average, wheteher they include HD or not, these are very good figures. How often does ITV1 average 4.3m between 3pm and 5pm?

Great ratings for the World Cup,particularly the ITV match.

The BBC have the same comedy, drama and "entertainment" though all the time - ITV have had several new series in their Saturday night line up over the last year, all of which (bar The Prisoner) have been relatively successful and just feels a lot fresher to the BBC line up.

The BBC isn't supposed to be all about ratings after all. They may have some big hitters on Saturday nights, but the scheduling means they're actually losing viewers with shows such as Total Wipeout, capable of 6m+, put in slots where it gets less than 4m, and Doctor Who, Merlin and to an extent Strictly all suffering similarly too.

The lottery shows are all pretty tired formats now, and Casualty is just too dominant in the Saturday schedules, preventing the BBC from trying anything new later in the evening.

Note that the BBC had the higher of the two daytime ratings and the higher of the two evening matches, compared to 2006.

But that might be because in each case BBC1's game had a bigger team - Germany in 2006 and France last night.

OK, I know it was on straight after the football, but really good rating for The Chase!

Also solid ratings for ITV News at 6:30.

Big Brother did OK, but was clearly dented by the football, as were the ITV1 soaps - this pattern will almost certainly be repeated throughout the tournament.

EDIT: Also, now that the ratings are confirmed, the Football ratings are exceptional in my view.

As I've said many times before, if I can't balance out the massive pro-ITV bias on this thread, and on DS generally, where many people are so far up ITV's ass, then it's a sorry state of affairs.

Somewhat ironic that i get accused of being partial and too keen to criticise ITV from the very people who themselves pursue a relentlessly pro-ITV agenda and generally loathe the BBC, all it stands for, and wish it wasn't there at all.

Done a pretty fine job? The tournament only kicked off 12 hours ago and ITV has shown one match!

Your comments that the widely derided Beglin is a "brilliant co-commentator", that the wittering gobshite Tyldesley is "the best in the business" and that Chiles is better than Lineker are .

Anyone who knows anything about football would find what you've just said laughable.”

I often take a look in this thread to see how my favourite programmes are doing and how popular things are.

I just really don't get this rather weird "I LOVE ITV/BBC" thing. How can this dude be so passionate about a television channel and show such hatred for another television channel? Just seems a little strange to get so, so worked up about it.

I know but I would have thought the +1 would bring it to 3m+ again.

Thanks rtz, Big Brother not doing as well as i'd expected, a repeat of Taggart beating it.

Briliant for the football though.

Apart from the huge football ratings the other shock is how well The Chase performed hugely benefiting from the lead in and should perform very well over the next couple of weeks.

As predicted the soaps were dented, particuarly Corrie. However I can't see why they didn't just air an hour long from 7.30 which prevents viewers turning over to BBC1 at 8pm then not coming back, as many seemed to. A lot of Corrie's scheduling over the next few weeks is bizarre to say the least. BBC1 have capitalised on the removal of Emmerdale and scheduled hour longs from 7pm, but ITV1 don't seem to have changed from their normal schedule.

We've really got to start questioning BARB's accuracy with HD figures.

As of March 31, there were 15% of homes with HD, no doubt that's risen quite substantially since then (Danielle Nagler of BBC HD says 'less than 20%').

The majority of these are Sky homes and no doubt many of those are football fans.

We should be getting between 15%-20% HD viewing share for football.

But still we're only getting around 6%.

I cannot believe that two out of every three who have spent money on getting HD are still watching such a highly publiised 'HD event' in SD.

That's without C4+1 though, so only down 200,000 on the equivalent figure from Thursday - it's more than possible that C4+1 could have gained the equivalent number of viewers.

Any figures for the ITV1 highlights at 10.35pm. The BBC2 10pm show did much worse than I expected, though saying that considering they showed highlights of the other game in the last half-hour of the BBC1 coverage perhaps it isn't too surprising. Thought it would get at least 1m though.

2.6m includes +1.

It had 2.2m without +1.

It says the 2.6m includes +1. Unless they're mistaken which would be good.
