BBC1 won every slot from 6am - 11.30pm yesterday. From Sam Hodges on Twitter.
![]() Then again, the numbers are awful all round for the big two. Even Casualty and Lotto passing 4m is nothing really to get excited about. Looks like BBC1's chance of decent ratings for the Murray tennis final today will be scuppered by the weather. I assume it's about to be called off, as the EPG has now gone back to the original schedule now, with no tennis. |

They left it too late in the schedule IMO. It has been three weeks since the last show. If ITV had any thought then they couldve aired it on 29th May as.
7.00 - The Cube McFly Special 8.00 - Coronation Street 8.30 - Britian's Got Talent: Final Semi Final and leave Scott & Bayley to begin the following week as part of the new line up. Quote:
No, I don't think so. Must have been the Prince William factor. As I think we found out in April, he's something of a ratings draw!

Perhaps George is right. Christmas Day does fall in June now.

I assume it's about to be called off, as the EPG has now gone back to the original schedule now, with no tennis. Lets face it, the only winner yesterday was Trooping The Colour and maybe some m/c shows when we see those numbers. But for ITV seeing as they are getting an older viewer on Sundays it makes sense to target the younger viewer on Saturdays even if the total adult numbers are lowish. I remember previous years where 2 hour repeats of Foyles War were getting close to 4m but tiny 16-34 numbers. Do we really want to go back to that? |

Scott & Bailey's overnights from last week. They show 262k on ITV1+1, yet in this week's officials the +1 showing doesn't register in the top ten!! Should be at least number six.
Wonder why? Quote:
Yeah, I thought that was odd too, that it hadn't made the Top 10 of the week for the channel. I'll hopefully be able to get the consolidated rating within a week or two so I'll let you know then what its figure was.

If you are happy with 4m and 3 and a bit million for the finale of your big talent show then I'd called that a pretty poor Christmas present.
I don't follow the "your talent show" bit. I keep telling you I'm not Danny Cohen. I know you seem to think I am, but I'm not, I promise. You still won't deny working for ITV though, I see...

Does Casualty still go off for a bit in the Summer, or does that run all year round with no gap thesedays?

Queen's Club took a gamble in moving the tennis final from 2.30pm to 12 noon to try and avoid a bad weather forecast for this afternoon. BBC1 had changed their schedule.
It hasn't worked, it's raining. |

Queen's tournament director seems convinced there's a window of opportunity for the tennis final today - late afternoon. Could cause headaches for the Beeb later if it airs at the same time as the F1. Last thing they want - suspect they'd rather air it tomorrow lunchtime.
May also be some farcical ripping up of schedules today if it eases off for an hour this afternoon - then rains again, and so on. Be a nice warm up anyway for Wimbledon for the annual ITVista (well, GeorgeS at least) "Murray on BBC1" ad nauseum postings... |

Don't be silly. I was responding to the "BBC1 winning every single slot from dawn till bedtime" news. Unusual for either BBC1 or ITV1 that, and doesn't always happen for BBC1 on 25th December.

Comparing Camelot to Pillars of the Earth.
POTE made number two spot in C4's officials for its premiere with 2.54m. It was then 12th, then 22nd. Never to be seen again!! |

Of course maybe they want to piss Bernie off too as it might make it easier to hand back the F1 rights at the end of the year

Saturday 11th June Overnights
BBC One 22:50- Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow: 2.41m (16.4%) They always seem to go through phases as if they can't be bothered to go into the vaults more than once a year. Only Fools and Horses went through a phase of being repeated every week for years, then it was Vicar of Dibley, now is there a Saturday night ever where an episode of either Comedy Roadshow, Live at the Apollo or John Bishop isn't shown? |

The BBC must have the largest archive in the UK, so why do they insist on showing the same few shows all the time?

No we are entering the traditional summer dead zone where ITV show programmes that wouldn't get an airing at any other time of the year and the BBC rely on sport and repeats. However, traditionally it was always the BBC's ratings that sunk in the summer as they used to fill the schedule with cricket test matches and repeats and ITV tended to rally, usually with big budget imported mini series.

They are hoping to cash in on his post BGT enhanced fame I'd guess. I'd expect Knight Rider to turn up again somewhere soon too.
Perhaps ITV should air Knight Rider and Baywatch repeats on Saturday evenings. They can't do any worse...

Stand out for me was Camelot. A very solid rating of over 2m when BBC1 and ITV1 were having poor nights. I wonder if it will stabilise or fall of a cliff like many US imports have done.
Please can we make sure we use The Cube's correct title, its the "Bafta award-winning The Cube". And has @Schofe tweeted about his latest ratings "success"? |
