let me just check that, but I would say yes, Neighbours has been the No1 show on the digital channels for a few weeks now, it wasnt at the start of 2011, but it is the clear winner nearly all nights now
http://www.tvcentral.com.au/2011/02/...february-2011/ It is no1 on the digital networks, 2nd is Heartbeat on 7Two |

Those are officials right? So two or three episodes rated below 4m in the overnights. Not as many as I thought granted, but the scale of the drop is something to behold.
I don't wish to be too critical of Luther, it looked to be a well made drama. I'm not saying it shouldn't have been recommissioned either, just trying to explain why I think the Outcasts decision was harsh. Outcasts is dead, has been for 2 weeks. With no chance of a recommision its just wasting a slot on a Monday. If those who are still watching, myself included, still want to watch the final 3 episodes they can easily on a fairly reasonable time on a Sunday night or on iPlayer. Moving it frees up 3 more Mondays so Crimewatch (PSB) can slot in and presumably Waking The Dead can air sooner. |

It didn't get numerous episodes in the 3m range though - 4 of the 6 were above 4m in the overnights. The only ones in the 3m range was the one up against Corrie/BGT and another one against a stripped ITV drama, Father & Son (and got 3.7m up against that).

It didn't really shed more viewers than Outcasts. Luther from episode 1 to episode 6 fell 2.1m (-36%). Outcasts has dropped 1.8/1.9m (-40%) by episode 5, and that's after a low start anyway. The declines are similar but more importantly Luther managed to have an audience of about 1.5m more on average up against tougher competition and at a worse time of the year ratings-wise. That's not saying that Luther should've been recommissioned (it was one of those 50/50 ones).

Wow, the figures there show that Neighbours had a peak of 0.49m last night. That is a fantastic figure for digital and again dwarfs the figures for Ten news.
I am surprised at how this has all worked out, and im not the only one, I didnt hold out much hope for TEN Evening News, but its flopped more than I thought it would, and Neighbours is getting doubled what I thought. |

Very impressive run for Tool Acadamy. It may look low, but it launched with half of that audience.

Apart from the soap ratings which haven't been reported yet, pretty crap night. Channel 4 did well in the 9pm slot, while Five did better than usual from 8pm to 10pm. In February, and the highest 9pm rating is below 4m...
Edit: Soap ratings now out. Good for Corrie with both above 10m, shabby share for EastEnders again, and outrated percentage wise by Emmerdale. |

Coronation Street is back on the post-Tram Crash ratings which is good to see. Very healthy to see ratings above the 10m mark again after a few weeks of 9m and also very good audience shares.
Neighbours in the UK seems to be taking off again. Good to see it beating Hollyoaks, and also the aggregate ratings will be closer to 2.5m again. Coach Trip also has re-established itself into the evening schedule! |

Nothing really changed in the 9pm slot. Another poor rating for Outcasts, TBL fails to capitalise from weak competition again and if it can only manage ~4m every week in that Monday slot it's not going to do better anywhere else and moving it to a Tuesday/Thursday slot for its next series could see it sub 3m. Ch5 have a new factual hit in Royal Navy.
Interesting soap figures again. Emmerdale beats EE share wise and whilst 9.2m looks like a healthy figure for EE it's beaten comfortably by Corrie who haven't even got a big storyline running this week and Emmerdale is only 1m behind it in a weaker slot. I'm really surprised Corrie was so high, especially the 2nd one. A pretty strong night for Ch5 with H&A over 1m for the Penn reveal & Gadget Show back up too. |

Very, very good ratings again for Coronation Street which is comfortably beating Eastenders- Coronation Street doesn't even have a big story thread this week, so that is interesting.
9 million is still a healthy figure though. |

Even Home and Away on FIVER is performing better than the extra showing of Hollyoaks on E4.
I do wonder if Hollyoaks future is up, a couple of years ago it was the main student programme to watch but most students have now gone back to Neighbours due to the fact that they cant relate to Hollyoaks. |

Are those Tool Academy ratings good enough for renewal? I'm not sure.

That is one of the most optimistic outlooks on a series I have ever heard after just one episode!
However thats a pretty solid start, I would guess higher than the slot average. Im sure you didnt mean it but your earlier post did come across as quite negative by making out it had fallen again yet didnt mention it had increased on its last episode. Its a debate which has two sides, im now swaying towards they were wrong to move it but the decision has been made. Regardless of it stabilising, 2.7m isnt good enough for Monday 9pm on BBC1 in February. Very different circumstances for Luther, ratings fell to 3.1m in the overnights against Britians Got Talent on a Tuesday night In June.

ITV1 get to choose whether to show the Manchester City game or the Arsenal replay on Wednesday 2nd March.
Interesting letters in there about Lark Rise and the last ever episode. The BBC deny in reply that it was hastily written to round off the series and was penned before the series was axed. Apparently there will be more BBC reaction to the axing of Lark Rise in next week's issue. And another letter on Outcasts ask why it is basically East Enders in space and notes it could have been set in Crewe rather than Mars if it was not going to use the alien context in any way. Fits a lot of viewer response on why this series tried to be both Sci Fi and a drama and ended up being too little of either. |

According to Radio Times for next week (out today) they have chosen Man City v Aston Villa next Wednesday.
You're kidding! ![]() What a dull, boring, safe decision, and particularly after they nearly hit the jackpot with Crawley almost getting a draw or better at Old Trafford (well, they did anyway - 9m peak tuned in). The sooner the FA hand the rights back to the BBC, the better. |

Still dismal for Outcasts last night, naturally - but The Biggest Loser hasn't taken advantage at all. I know its not a flop, but I reckon ITV were hoping for much more than than what this series has achieved in such a plum slot. Channels 4 and 5 made much better use of the limited opposition, and the latter in particular will be thrilled with its performance.
Corrie still riding high - the 8.30 numbers seem to be outdoing the 7.30 ones at the moment which is unusual. I can only consider that to be to do with the quality of the show itself bringing people back. EastEnders is OK, but its dropped a couple of % in share from where we'd expect to see it. And I'd say that was a pretty good start for Mrs Browns Boys - I've not seen it and was going to avoid it like the plague, but its got the sort of reception that makes me want to try it out... |

BTW, Doctor Who is expected to begin on 23rd April, with the first two episodes 'doing a Primeval' and airing over 1 weekend. |

22.69m 7:00-7:30pm
24.23m 7.30-8:00pm 25.83m 8.00-8.30pm 25.78m 8:30-9:30pm 25.19m 9:00-10:00pm Total viewing figures grew last night from 7:00 then a slight dip at 9:00 but still 25 million watching tv - the soaps dominate as usual - then 9pm comes around and viewers are split across the main channels - with nothing in particular to hook them. Best to keep Mrs Brown's Boys in a late night slot with a reasonable rating, should get over 3 million in officials. I watched West Ham take apart Burnley on ESPN - hope it got a decent rating. |

Bread meets Father Ted - with proper swear-words... ![]() Your point about avoiding it suggests the Beeb cocked up its promotion of this. It looked crap from the trailers, and I assumed it was a tame mainstream sitcom that had been banished to the margins of the schedule before it even started. I only discovered it was based on a smash hit Irish stage show from reading the show thread on here last night. They should have promoted it accordingly, and picked some of the many funny moments for the trailers. |
