Thought this was interesting on ITV Player's most watched list:
1) Emmerdale - 8th February 2) Coronation Street - 7th February, 20:30 3) Marchlands - 3rd February 4) Coronation Street - 7th February, 19:30 5) The Biggest Loser - 7th February Obviously the viewership is probably miniscle compared to BBC iPlayer (~100k), but worth noting Marchlands in third 5 days after transmission still. Big Fat Gypsy Weddings is trending 1st and 3rd worldwide on Twitter, I don't actually think that's happened this series surprisingly. |

I reckon Gypsy Wedding could get 8m tonight!!
I also hope Sun, Sex and Suspicious parents can get a series high tonight. I think it set a series high last week. (700,000+). Also last night Tool Acadamy i think maybe got its highest rating. It launched with around 330,000-360,000, now it gets over 600,000. |

Oh Ten. How humiliating. I don't think they expected their evening news to be a huge hit right away but pulling in figures less than what Neighbours used to get? And now actually being beat by Neighbours on a digital channel? Awful.

Tool Academy has picked up well from its first episode rating but yesterday's 670k was its lowest in three weeks - the previous two weeks managed 700k-800k (inc. +1). But with the ratings it's been getting, I expect it'll be recommissioned because they're strong for E4 particularly demo-wise (almost 70% of its audience are 16-34s).

Ten were so keen to get rid of Neighbours and they made the wrong decision. I'm sure they would be over the moon to have a programme rating 500-600k in the 6:30pm slot now. The changes to the programme have been fantastic, which has shown in the increasing ratings on ELEVEN.
I am wondering whether Neighbours will get near to the 390k again like it got last week. I doubt Ten will go a u-turn yet. They don't seem to have much respect for Neighbours, so I can see them trying an array of other programmes in the slot first. Also, I would rather Neighbours survived healthily on digital than return to Ten and suffer the inevitable ratings comparison with Home and Away! |

ITV Plater stats mean very little becase hardly anyone uses it, I may be wrong but I think 4oD gets more traffic than the ITV Player.
![]() Quote:
TV Player reaches 1.3 million users, while 4oD scrapes ahead with 1.4 million.... BBC's iPlayer with 6.6 million users. To be fair it is a lot better lately - used to be very patchy to say the least. But now works virtually all of the time. Plus they seem to have had a bit of a clear out of the previous "online exec's" and replaced them in the last few months. Also I hear whispers that a redesign on the way.

Not sure how significant this is but in an interview in today's Radio Times with Jonathan Ross it says: Quote:
There is a series with magic duo Penn and Teller that he's very excited about.
I wouldn't take that as confirmed or anything but hopefully it's true as the one off was great.

It was only a matter of tiem before Neighbours beat the news.
Taggart should be up by at least a million considering the weaker opposition. I wonder whether Outcasts will stay about 4m? As for last night, reasonable all round really. BBc1 should be pleased Outcasts didn't tail off further. |

PS Does Bruce Forsyth do the ratings reports?: http://www.myfamilyontv.com/news/ser...ngs-highlights
![]() He should have some very decent ratings material at the 2011 season launch though, in fairness. Including a solid win over X Factor on the only occasion they overlapped in 2010. ![]() Quote:
I
Note: I know someone will come along and say that +1 shouldn't be added, which is absolutely fine, but it appears that the media are factoring in +1 when reporting its consolidated ratings: recent articles by Guardian and Broadcast have its +1 included consolidated figures being reported, and even BBC News has mentioned a +1 included rating from last week. Just sloppy reporting, and/or a disregard for accuracy. We might as well all make it up as we go along. Like on the My Family fan site... ![]() Quote:

There were no noticeable ratings spikes on Monday at 9pm as a result of BBC1 losing 3m viewers week on week; in the main, SW viewers just weren't watching TV. |

ITV Player has improved slightly but I still think 4oD is a much better service. ITV Player reguarly stops and shows errors for me which mean I have to sit through another 5 adverts. If ITV showed less ads during the programme I think their stats would improve and they could sell advertising on the site rather than during the show as much.
Yeah the ad's are slightly annoying, but I suppose thats how ITV make there money - surely more to be made with video ad's? But it's just getting the balance right really i.e not putting too many ad's and putting of people using the wesbite. |

I'm surprised Royal Navy: Caribbean Patrol did so well considering Warship only did 1.4-1.5m, these sort of programme do well for Five and it's a free ad for the Navy. They've got a strong factual slate which they should build on, I've mentioned before that maybe they should do their own version of American Pickers and Pawn Stars,

Doesn't make that right, though.

Like on the My Family fan site... ![]() IMHO, it's not a disregard of accuracy: the +1 included consolidated ratings (particularly for BFGW) give a better picture of how many people watched it during the week than the non +1 number which misses out the best part of a million people, those who may have watched the 9pm showing had the +1 service not been available. Do you honestly believe if C4+1 had not been available, the C4-only ratings would've been exactly the same as they have been these last few weeks? Of course they wouldn't have, they'd have been higher... At this point, I'm sure you'd reply and say "what about other shows which have repeats a few days later - should they be added on?" Well, if you trawl back through my previous posts, I've answered that question a few times for you to check. And really - the BBC are doing exactly that with their Live+7 figures anyway so clearly they're not against the practice of adding in the +1s. I really don't mind if you or anyone have a different view about it (plenty of people agree with you that +1 shouldn't be added) but I don't think you should be dismissing it as "sloppy reporting/ disregard of accuracy" and acting like somehow these websites and people are just plucking random numbers out of the air and "making it up as we go along". Websites like The Guardian, Broadcast, BBC News wouldn't be doing it if it was a disregard of accuracy, they're pretty well respected websites in the industry. And it's not only those three websites, the BBC's ratings service Pulse does it and BARB subscriber bureuxs such as Attentional and Digital-i give options for BARB subscribers to look at the +1 included ratings automatically. If it really was "inaccurate" and frowned upon by BARB, then their own bureux services wouldn't be doing it. With regard to your mention of that My Family website in relation to this, it's clearly something completely different and the comparison isn't even worth making... Speaking of that My Family website, it's funny how much the author has twisted that! It'd be interesting if broadcasters here did daily press releases like our US and Australian counterparts, some of those PRs I'm sure would make fascinating reading .Quote:

There were 24.9m people watching TV between 9-10pm yesterday, compared to 26.0m last Monday so actually in the main the SW viewers were still watching TV. They just dispersed to the other channels, with Channel 5 experiencing a +0.9m (+76%) rise in the slot week-on-week. I would certainly call that a "noticeable ratings spike".

if anything Neighbours was actually slightly lower than it should have been, last tuesday it had 322,000 viewers, so TEN News is lucky to only been beaten by 1,000. Tuesdays rating are as much about TEN News low numbers as they are Neighbours.

The other point being that +1 viewing is no different to PVR viewing within the same day. So if you exclude or ignore +1, then PVR viewing that is npt live should also be excluded |

Big Fat Gypsy Weddings averaged a massive 8.2 million (inc. +1) yesterday. With timeshift, potentially Channel 4's most watched programme this century.
Outcasts dropped to 3.3m (13%). |
