Strong night for BBC4, with 1m+ over 2 hours. In the officials, Hattie will probably pass 2m+ which is absolutely brilliant, and as I said before, it was great scheduling by the Beeb. It's a shame these bio dramas are put on a channel that only 20% of the population watch, yet 100% pay for. |

If BBC4 didn't exist, it would have been on BBC2 and possibly got similar figures to Eric & Ernie.

19:30- Live FA Cup Football: 5.2m (22.5%)
Also this should be 5.3m for the actual scheduled slot. Tape-checked average, however, was 5.14m.

Here's Wednesday's demographic information:http://i55.tinypic.com/ac6261.jpg - Football was the most popular programme with 16-34s on Wednesday - Mary Portas: Secret Shopper had a high ABC1 skew - Unsurprisingly, The Joy of Teen Sex had a high 16-34 skew compared to the other shows. Interesting, however, that its second most popular age range was people aged 65+! - In terms of A18-49s, Indiana Jones had slightly more viewers than the football, although with HD included it was probably a tie. - Edward Farm has a really old audience but I suppose that shouldn't come as a surprise as BBC2 caters for older viewers. So in that respect, it's doing its job well. As for Tuesday, I don't have that data unfortunately. But C4Sales does say that Big Fat Gypsy Weddings had 1.86m 16-34s watching it, which must've been the second highest of the day (only behind EastEnders) and easily the most popular in its slot among the demo (by about 3:1).

ITV are extending Countrywise to an hour: Quote:
Countrywise is to be extended into hour-long episodes and receive a budget boost as ITV looks to capitalise on the show’s popularity. It looks like it's destined for Tuesdays at 8pm. Countrywise's new episodes were getting almost 4m in its Monday 8pm slot last year so I suppose ITV sees this as an opportunity to sort of fix the Tuesday 8pm problem if it can get similar figures.
The rural Britain brand will return in April for a 12 x 60-minute run in an 8pm slot - reducing the number of episodes compared with previous series, but increasing the show’s traditional 30-minute length. Paul Heiney will continue with hosting duties and it will retain its “journey-like” format, keeping it distinct from BBC1’s Countryfile, which is more like a magazine show. ITV’s factual commissioning editor Diana Howie did not reveal how much extra cash ITV Studios will receive to make Countrywise, but said it had become an important brand for the broadcaster. It has given rise to other British outdoors content, including The Lakes and soon-to-air The Dales, and put its name to a range of cooking sauces sold in Asda – becoming an early adopter of ITV’s drive to wring value out of content. Last year’s series averaged 3.36m (13.06 %) viewers in the 8pm slot, while an episode just before Christmas pulled in 5.57m (23.16%). |

Indiana Jones is remarkable, to be honest. A set of 25-30 year old movies that have held down respectable levels on Wednesday nights since the beginning of the year. And gave an FA Cup replay a run for its money among young viewers! Quote:

Kidnap and Ransom down 0.9m (-17%) from last week, which is slightly more than what I was expecting (was thinking it would drop about 10%). They better hope the next episode doesn't fall like that once again because if that happens, it's unlikely to return for another series. It might have a chance if it can stay at ~4.5m.

Mike - do you know what Human Planet (BBC1), Men of Rock (BBC2), Rome Wasn't Built in a Day (C4) and Jack The Ripper (C5) got ?Quote:
HD will boost that figure somewhat

Shame for Kidnap and Ransom to fall below 5m - might have hoped for better retention than that.
Steady as she goes for Come Fly With Me and Not Going Out. Thats been a nice, solid comedy block for BBC One - and they haven't tended to have many of those in recent years. Not surprised to see Human Planet fall somewhat - it seems to be the trend for these big natural history series - but its still at decent levels. Average-to-poor for 10 O'Clock Live, but C4 will stick with it through its long run. These sorts of shows take a good while to get into their stride, I feel. |

HP - 4.82m MoR - 1.21m Rome - 1.64m JtR - 1.3m . Hmmm... a big-ish drop for Human Planet but in line with the drops other series like this have experienced in the past. The Jack The Ripper doc on C5 did well and the Rome show on C4 did about as much as I expected. But it seems like the terrestrials were dented last night.Forgot to ask previously - do you know what American Idol got on ITV2? IIRC, last year's opener had over 1m, so this might've dented some of the terrestrials yesterday. |

Excellent for Mary Portas on Wednesday-Ch4 on a role. A shame 10 O'Clock Live couldn't do really well, but I guess inc +1 it will be around 1.5m which isn't a disaster for the 10pm slot. Rome Wasn't Built.. performing OK. I thought that could be a big flop.
CFWM seems to be stabilising now and I do wonder how it would do without the random Saturday repeats. Quite a big drop for K&R though, but I guess it could be worse. Ch5 having a mixed week. Looks like it's going to be a tough few weeks for CSI, especially up against two UK dramas and Ch4's biggest hit factual in years. NCIS slightly up which is good to see, but it's still not as good as it should be getting. Jack The Ripper seemed to do well in an unusual slot for that type of show. |

This is supposed to be one of ITV2's "big hitters" but with this down, no Katie Price and Peter Andre's declining ratings, ITV2 may well suffer a year-on-year decline this year unless there's some new successes which come through. In saying that, they're likely to show X Factor USA later this year or next year which I'm sure will do very well. |

Not much to say on Wednesday's and Thursday's ratings really. Wednesday's I think are as expected, Thursday's similar although I hoped Kidnap and Ransom stayed above 5m.
