...or Hustle moves from the Friday to give...

19:30 - EastEnders
20:30 - Not Going Out
21:00 - Hustle

OR

19:30 - EastEnders
20:30 - Hustle
21:30 - Not Going Out

?
the first line up seems more likely,that said the 2nd line up would be better for my scheulde.

Impressive share and repeat figure for EE there.
Over 11m last night, including +1+1+1 timeshift viewing...

I never saw one advert for it. I dunno how you can say 9m is a poor result when EE and Corrie are usually a few million away from Emmerdale, whereas last night, the gap between all three was 0.7m. Honestly Robbie, your hatred over any show on ITV is beyond ridiculous!!
Who said it was poor?

I just put its undoubtedly high rating in some context.

Come come now Roscoe, your bias for ITV and it's soaps shines rather bright. Have you purposely used a tape-check rating for Emmerdale and a whole slot rating for Eastenders to compare (it should be a gap of 1.3m if compared correctly) or made a genuine mistake?
It is ironic isn't it how I am accused of persistent BBC bias, yet Roscoe comes on here and comments on how brilliantly ITV1 and its soaps are doing, plus the new Trevor Eve doing well, and doesn't even mention the performance of the night, a nature doc getting 5.7m on BBC1 against the Soap Hour, or a 9pm comedy getting 6m, or EE getting 10m or 11m depending on your point of view, and yet nobody bothers one bit...

Standout ratings - 5.8m for Human Planet against the soap hour and 9.0m for Emmerdale. Both very good. EastEnders' share is worth mentioning too.

For someone who claims to be a big BBC fan, you don't seem to watch it very much. Human Planet has been heavily trailed this last week or two and that was reflectled in the ratings.
Human Planet basically had an approx 3 minute promotion as the final item on the BBC1 6pm news.

Good, glad it did, it was excellent, and programmes like this need to be advertised more.

National news programs are not the place for them though. A promotional ad for one of your own programs is not "news"

Loads of people don't even know when Come Fly With Me is on. I heard from most people only watch it on IPlayer, as then they know it's the right episode. Then the papers announced it was on at 22:00 last night and the weird way of repeating on Saturday so confusion all round ...

Something to be positive about for both major channels last night.

ITV can be pleased with how Emmerdale did on its big storyline, and that they managed to get a big sampling audience for Kidnap and Ransom. We'll see how it holds up in later instalments - from that Broadcast report it looks like it fell over the hour, so I'll be expecting something of a dip next week, but hopefully still 5m+.

For BBC One, its heartening to see Human Planet perform so well in that slot, with a terrific audience share. Similar to K+R, I think we could be seeing a drop for this next time out, but fingers crossed it won't be too severe. Also, the comedy block did strongly again - its great to see Not Going Out getting a decent viewing - but Come Fly With Me still hasn't stopped falling. On the plus side, it seems to have been massive on iPlayer - and that would also suggest its also doing well with younger demos. All definitely plus points for the BBC, I think.

Actually Radio Times had last nights episode billed as a repeat of episode 1.

So if they had no clue what the BBC were doing its hardly surprising some viewers have given up trying.

I only watched it as my Sky box series linked the recording. Had I been watching live I would have believed Radio Times and not bothered.

0.1m are you sure about that?

19:30 - EastEnders: 10.21m (43.5%)
20:30 - Coronation Street: 9.61m (37.0%)
When comparing the ratings, where possible I always work off the slot average. So EE had 9.7m to Corrie's 9.6m. So the difference is as I stated, 0.1m

Come come now Roscoe, your bias for ITV and it's soaps shines rather bright. Have you purposely used a tape-check rating for Emmerdale and a whole slot rating for Eastenders to compare (it should be a gap of 1.3m if compared correctly) or made a genuine mistake?
The 9m rating for Emmerdale is not tape-checked so what are you talking about?! EE- 9.7m, Corrie- 9.6m, Emmerdale- 9.0m. So 0.7m is the difference!! I thought the 9.0m was the slot average, if not then it was a genuine mistake.

I have commented on BBC show many times in the past. I was making my points today about the soaps due to Emmerdale's big episode last night which rated excellently. With regards to today's ratings overall, I didn't have time for a full analysis as I was off to work. We don't all have to time to sit here refreshing the page every minute to review new comments!

...and that was obviously a joke!!

Is that their website you're talking about cos my copy of the magazine has them billed correctly?

I have a theory:

Some raised eyebrows in the Not Going Out thread about the censorship of epiosde 1 last week. An f-word was bleeped out (despite it featuring unbleeped in earlier series) and it seems a reference to a sex-aid was dubbed into something much more inoffensive.

Maybe NGO was meant to go out on Fridays at 8.30 (pre-watershed, hence the censorship) in place of QI which finishes its run tonight and CFWM was supposed to continue in the Saturday night slot that the first 2 episodes had.

Then somebody at the BBC had the bright idea of running the two comedies back-to-back on Thursdays at 9pm, a schedule that seems to have provided a little boost to NGO.

As a result of this QI has had to be replaced by QI repeats and CFWM on Saturday was replaced (rather clumsily) by CFWM repeats. Note that moving CFWM from Saturday to Thursday has put the BBC3 repeats on Fridays out-of-sync with the new BBC1 episodes, thus providing more circumstantial evidence to back up my theory.

Actually Roscoe, it is. 9.0m is the tape-checked rating for the second episode as reported by DS and Broadcast as it finished at 20:25.

Oh I see. I thought it was for the slot average. Do we know what the slot average were last night for Emmerdale? Also is Corrie tape-checked? It's all getting rather confusing as we don't always know what is tape-checked and what isn't

No. Well we do excluding HD, but not including HD.

No because it started at 20:31 and finished after 20:57:30 I think.

The full slot average isn't a fair indication of how many actually watched the programme given EE nearly always finishes before 19.57 these days.

But I won't hold it against you as I think you are wonderful comic value.

The thread seems to become much more confrontational on a day when ITV has good ratings.

The BBC fan boys can't cope with this so have to argue that 'actually the ratings were poor because of X, Y & Z'

Emmerdale getting over 9m is an excellent performance whatever way you look at it.

.

No actual Radio Times for last night,

Wales edition page 104.

Listing for Come Fly With Me clearly says 1/6.

That was the episode shown last Saturday.

Professor Stephen Hawking has just tweeted to say he'd love to read the DS ratings thread but it's too confusing even for his great intelligence and gives him a headache.

For the sake of everybody's sanity here is the Top 5 highest rated programmes of 2011 in advance....

1) Life Of Riley: 16.23m (Live episode)
2) Strictly Come Dancing: 15.55m (Simon Cowell makes his debut as the show's new judge.)
3) FA Cup Final: 14.77m (Torquay Utd v West Ham United)
4) Dancing On Ice: 14.20m (Holly and Baby Spice give birth on the same edition.)
5) The Black And White Minstrels Show: 13.78m (Lucas and Walliams hiliarious non-racist new comedy project debuted on Christmas Day at 10pm).

{Note: X Factor's ratings plummet when, due to an error in ITV's contract department, Sharon Osbourne is appointed the show's presenter and mentor to all 4 categories.}

...so now nobody need ever enter this thread ever again.

I'm off now to lie down in a darkened room.

Would it be possible to have the displaced Eastenders episode on Wednesday 2nd Feb at 19:30 to boost the series premiere of the 2nd half of series 6 of Waterloo Road starting that night? Could then have the displaced episode of Hustle at 9pm after Waterloo Road.

just looking at the before mentioned Digiguide update, Thursday 9pm is TBA

So I think the BBC should show a double bill of EE at 19:30, then Human Planet, ending in time for the 9:30 Not Going Out, as normal. Wednesady 9pm is TBA, so it could be Hustle.
