It's also at this point where people get carried away, thinking that every Murray match will cause the BBC1 schedules to be ripped up, regional news magazines cancelled, EastEnders delayed etc, when in reality it only happens in the second week.

Still no golf ratings?
Sat - SS2, 7pm to 1am Sun - SS2, 6.30pm to 12.30am Peaks would be of particular interest given length of programmes and almost 2 hours at the start on each day before McIlroy teed off. |

Tuesday 23rd June 2009 19:00- Emmerdale: 4.69m (24.8%) * 19:00-19:30: 4.90m (26.9%) * 19:30-20:00: 4.48m (22.7%) 19:30- EastEnders: 4.84m (24.5%) Wimbledon on BBC2 peaked with 4.5m (22.75%) between 19:30 and 19:45 Thursday 25th June 2009 - think it finished before primetime If it moves and stays on BBC2, then the ITV1 soaps at least will be dented heavily. (last year his games were not last on court and comparisons not very valid due to World Cup) |

The BBC will keep these contracts, but I can see some of the less watched things like domestic athletics and some snooker moving across to satellite.
With regards to athletics interesting to note that part of the London diamond league is down for BBC1 primetime on Friday 5th August, I'd guess 7-8pm Quote:
DIAMOND LEAGUE - LONDON Meanwhile the Diamond League Zurich and Brussels get upped from BBC3 to BBC2 this year, Thu 8th and Fri 16th Sept respectively 7-9pm.Friday 5 August BBC One/Two (1900-2100) http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/athletics/6107744.stm I'm guessing this is in response to the BBC loosing the World Championship rights to C4 but still wanting to have some high profile athletics coverage, especially in the year before the Olympics Quote:
ITV made a token bid to retain the rights in 2004 but everyone knew they weren't very interested in getting them, because at 10.30 it doesn't really offer much value for a commercial broadcaster, and even less so these days with the advertising minutage used up in primetime. If they couldn't make it pay ten years ago, it'd be even less likely to now.

Here's the BBC1/ITV1 Demographic Information for Sunday 12th to Saturday 18th June: http://i56.tinypic.com/3142zb7.jpg
That's one very old-skew for Marple - I don't recall seeing a programme in primetime terrestrial TV (bar BBC2) skewing with an audience as old as that. ABC1 audience for it is decent though. |

Hmm. A midweek launch, same as BB8 (6.2m overnight) and BB11 (5m inc. +1 overnight). Seems like a good choice of night because it won't interrupt any of Channel 5's long-running programmes there. NCIS 7 will be done and dusted after this week so they could effectively devote the whole evening to Big Brother, perhaps kicking off with an OK! TV special and a few documentaries/retrospectives.
I think a Sunday launch would be best where its clear from any competition and can build across the week. It did wonders for the last celebrity series. |

Don't think Murray will start until at least after 6:30pm, heading towards 7pm, could be an opportunity to switch at 7pm, if BBC do wish to.
If not, then BBC2's schedule will be wiped out for the evening. |

PTOS might not rate highly but the ABC1 skew is good. However, the demos for The Apprentice are excellent, 65 pc ABC1, clearly there is a market for intelligent reality shows that are light years away from bitchy no hopers in a fake house.
See this quote from new exec producer Kathy Smith: Quote:
"For the house to work it has to have a mixture of characters. We are trying to make it a bit more authentic and would love to find a few more naïve characters, who are not all about fame and money. Our message this year is 'be yourself'."

Previous game on Centre Court just finished, Murray will be on in 15/20 minutes. Very convenient for BBC2 as that'll swipe BBC1's and ITV1's audience.

And people scoffed when I said it could be ITV's SYTYCD. "I can't see it going that low." Well, it has. It's officially a complete and utter turkey, almost beaten by C4's movie last night, and rounding off a very disappointing week for ITV1.
On a positive note, Scott & Bailey held up well in that crap sandwich. Why does the second episode of Family Guy always outrate the first? ![]() I ssaid last week to wait and see whether it'd rebound and it most certainly didn't. It only has three weeks left but they need to switch it round with The Royal as surely it has about an equal chance of recommission now and The Royal tends to hold up better. Scott and Bailey did well in the sandwich though, which'll give ITV some comfort.An uninspiring but ok night for BBC1. 'The 'stick anything about antiques on' approach doesn't seem to have worked at 7pm and the poor promotion for Horrible Histories hindered it badly. Indeed, when I drew up the schedule for the prediction game I put Horrible Histories down as a special as I thought it was the first episode next Sunday. Countryside performed well, and Case Histories held up without pulling up any trees.

They'll probably make the players stop at 9pm each night for a week of Corrie specials to boost its ratings then come back to the tennis at 9.30pm for the deciding set.

McLaren team boss Martin Whitmarsh is angry at yesterday's Sunday Times F1 story and says it would be sad and unwise for the BBC to drop coverage - http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/sport/t...-one-article/-
While Bernie Ecclestone will do his best to keep F1 on the BBC - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/moto...ne/9517174.stm If Bernie really wants the BBC to keep it he'd give them a free contract for three years - but no chance of that happening. Quote:
Their only realistic opportunity to get onto that chart is with Celebrity Big Brother which should get launch night ratings of about 4m. I'm not sure if it has been mentioned but Broadcast are claiming it begins on Wednesday 10th August, so about 6 or 7 weeks away.

Good timeshift for the first Camelot on C4. Up 43% from 2.24m to 3.20m.
Even the +1 version increased 21% from 299k to 363k. Quote:

No chance of it getting 4m even for the launch. 3m or so would be the best IMO, with around 1.5m for regular shows.
