Perhaps PJ Millar isn't being paid to work weekends by DS?

Its always a conspiracy with some but maybe he is just enjoying his weekend?
I have it on good authority that Saturday is his pilates class.

Sunday is bums and tums. And Friday night is bingo with D.M.N.

While we wait for some 2011 ratings, we'll take a trip down memory lane.... from this very Saturday five years ago:

Saturday 22nd July 2006
BBC1
18:25 - Dancing in the Street: 4.03m
19:30 - Lottery: In It to Win It: 5.60m
20:15 - Casualty: 6.23m
21:05 - Dancing in the Street: 4.09m
22:35 - BBC News: 4.18m
I don't remember that at all. Clearly I'm getting old!

If you see anything rolling on the floor, don't worry, it's just my marbles.

talking of Classic ratings

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/mosl...-30-years.html

A streamgraph showing the five most popular shows each year since 1981
Better still, BARB actually list the top 10 shows from each year, dating back to 1981!

So what show topped last year, The X Factor or Strictly Come Dancing? The Mail says one thing; BARB says another!

Either way, they both had excellent years...I wonder if they can build, or will stabilise or dip.

Good that My Family got a slight boost, it was the best episode for a while IMO.
Yes, it was a decent episode. It was the last of the two previously unseen episodes from last year's series ten DVD.

The Andy Murray-d episode, A Night Out, which made two brief appearances on the iPlayer, but hasn't aired on telly yet, is also quite good.

The Mail also mentions TXF for last year, they don't actually say SCD was top last year. The programmes on top of their graph weren't necessarily the most watched programmes of their years. TXF had more viewers last year: 17.71m for its final compared to SCD's 14.28m.

OK, in that case I don't really understand that chart either.

Why can't ratings just be simplistic?

Even more astounding it was probably an everyday occurence - it wouldn't have even been that surprising to read those kinds of figures.

How sensitive of you. And you can't even spell her name right.

That whole post was completely unnecessary. I'm reporting it and putting you on ignore.
Charnhams thoughts were pretty much the same as mine. yeah it's sad, but if someone pisses away their life with drugs and booze, what on earth do you expect to happen to them? Putting someone on ignore and reporting them for having no particular care about a rather rude, obnoxious and aggressive pop star is a bit extreme.

Putting someone on ignore for feeling the need to voice their apathy is more than justified.

If you don't care, then why say anything at all?

Respect the grief and sadness of others for this young girl's passing, even if you don't feel the same way.

wizzywick thanks for kind words, but I am not going back to dsicussing Amy Winehouse, it wont be productive, ive shared my views clarifed them once already, im not doing so again.

It's bad enough I'm bitching at people over television, let alone when something unrelated to TV comes into it. Let's not fall out over that, please.

Is this for real?

You're right Fudd. Not worth the time or energy.
