I highly doubt those are unique views. DS itself has <400k members so for one thread alone to amass over 4m readers is not plausible. It's like last night's Dragons' Den and that 38m walkers in the UK "statistic."
Well no, its had 4m views... of course 4m viewers isn't 4m unique readers, just that this thread (or the total of the 11 threads) have had 4 million 'clicks'.

Two things about last nights ratings, is that the first time BBC1 has won prime time on a Monday night up against the ITV1 soaps?
No, although it's quite rare: BBC1 has won 7 out of 34 Monday primetimes this year.

Is that the first time ITV1 has come 4th on a Monday night?
They didn't come 4th. They were 2nd overall last night, and if you meant the 9pm slot, they came 3rd.

I agree it will be cheap, not sure if it can cover costs on 8,000 viewers, I mean who are those 8,000 viewers, are THAT attractice to advertisers?
I wonder who would watch it now as it's been gone for nine years. Even when it was shown on regional ITV, SS was never a major talking point.

I am going to speculate that my standing theory about why we wont ever get a succesful new soap again, will ring true for Shortland Street, even if its not totally new.

Even if there is one I don't think it will ever be fully accepted as a soap. The Bill is a soap and was recognised as such for a short while but that idea was never fully accepted, whilst Casualty is very much a soap but is mainly seen as a drama, likewise with Holby City.

ok when I say "new soap" I mean one that airs at least 3x30 minute episodes a week, in primetime or daytime.

You said 4m people to start off with, which is obviously different to 4m clicks.

It would be nice if we did have 4m unique readers. Maybe one day!

Gavin Shipmen-Not only will EastEnders overtake corrie
but it will be by quite a big i should say

The week of 6th Sept looks Brilliant and the Vic Explotion is
the Thur 9th & Fri 10th Sept which will also see Peggys Exit and there's allready some adverts being shown on the BBC with Past clips of Peggy

Kat and Alfie will return sometime around them too

Good ratings last night for all the soaps (including the daytime ones) which seems higher then usual but with the bad weather we are getting atm it's no surprise.

I reckon a Bigger rating for the Bill tonight seeing as it's the first part of the final 2 parter and i expect quite a few casual Viewers do give it ago

Is BB not the final tonight?

Just seen the Micheal Ball show what is it with ITV and Rubbish chat shows?
It really is tacky they should spent the money on a good comedy or drama during the day

I expect shows Like Hollyoaks and EastEnders will be lower tonight seeing as it was resualts day

why do I get the feeling that TEN will have to cut to live coverage of the Labour woman, conceding defeat during Fridays Neighbours, like what happend with EastEnders.

DigiGuide update has New Tricks starting on Friday 10th September for its new series. It follows the recent trend by BBC1 to have more dramas on Friday nights (Hotel Babylon, Silent Witness, Ashes to Ashes). Paul O'Grady Live, which is supposed to be starting on the same night for ITV1, might struggle.

WDYTYA remains on Monday that week, The Young Ones is on Tue 7th, Crimewatch on Wed 8th, Motorway Cops on Thu 9th. It's a provisional schedule so it could change once confirmed tomorrow.

Is it me or is that not a very good rating for Secret Millionaire?

And I reckon Neighbours will get 0.92m for the 6000th episode, unless (of course) that Gillard woman conceeds the election at 6.20

Not sure if already posted but for the last 3 weeks multichannel has set a record for its share of viewing and it has then broken that record each subsequent week:

w/e 1 Aug - 46.0%
w/e 8 Aug - 46.8%
w/e 15 Aug - 47.3%

Above figures are for all homes. So in multichannel homes the share of viewing will be over 50%.

Multichannel share should now start to fall back with the start of XF and other big terrestrial autumn shows.

But the overall trend is continuing - it's getting harder and harder for the terrestrials to get "default viewers" for "middle of the road general programming".

I noticed BBC One has a 1 hour EE block, first of all a 40 minute episode, than 20 minutes of "Peggy MItchell: Queen of the Vic" I assume is 20 minute filler before New Tricks.

Yes, and there's a 35 minute episode on the Tuesday. Someone at ITV won't be pleased, especially with Friday.

While we're on for the moment, anyone willing to guess how Big Brother will do tonight. I'm predicting 3.5m about, with a 5m peak at 10pm.

Hmmm, DS is in a very temperamental mood ahead of their busiest night for a while...

Nine
21:30 The Secret Millionaire (New Series) 0.78m

No, it's not just you, it is a poor start. Nine have been short of hits this year compared to Seven and Ten so their bad luck continues it seems.

Thats got to be Friday 10th then for the explotion/exit?

The BBC have mentioned this a few times now
before EastEnders 'after 16 years peggy leaves
big drama for EastEnders in september'

Noticed Waterloo road is trending i guess thats either todo with the one show or the ad Before EastEnders as all 3 are trending

Could it not be higher then that with all the promotion it's had in the papers and other TV shows?

I assume something big is happening to Peggy that day, if not the explosion itself, possibly the aftermath.

I am assuming that the reaction to the BBC scheduling extra EastEnders clashing with Corrie will be the same here as it would be if ITV scheduled extra Corrie opposite EastEnders.

I remember a lot of fuss coming from certain quarters when ITV scheduled BGT opposite EE for a week.
