I think what's telling about the decline of Panorama is that if that Diana interview were to happen today (or a modern day equivalent) it likely wouldn't be anywhere near the Panorama brand. The whole thing has become something of a second string program with no real momentum behind it.
When the Diana interview aired, I guess Panorama was pulling maybe 4m a week against 15m watching the likes of Cracker or Soldier Soldier - and that was without a Corrie lead in either. Indeed, astonishingly Cracker still got an official rating of 15m against the Diana interview - however, there was a Budget statement after the 9pm news IIRC, so Panorama aired at 9.40pm that week, so I guess people either watched the first 2/3rd of Cracker and switched, or just picked up Di when Cracker finished about 9.55pm. Panorama that week ran to a full hour, with a Newsnight Special on BBC2 at 10.40pm which itself pulled a record 8m viewers! (Sir Nicholas Soames MP, a close friend of Charles, ranting and railing against Diana being the main highlight of that...) Gosh, I'm turning into Steve Williams!

DS have a low benchmark for 'strong' & 'popular' shows these days, with such superlatives used to describe BB ratings of 1.4m

Ratings are all relative. Big Brother may very well be a disappointment in terms of what was expected from it but relative to the rest of the Five line-up (particularly last night) it was a very strong perform. It was at least 65% ahead of the rest of the primetime line-up.
The statement that got me in that DS round up was this one: Bang Goes The Theory deduced 2.8m (12.7%) on BBC One That makes absolutely no sense. |

In the 16-34 demographic which Channel 5 are chasing with Big Brother: 1) it will have scored higher than BBC One's offerings from 8:30pm-10pm; 2) it would not have trailed Doc Martin the top rated non-soap programme of the night by much more than about 300k despite that show have around 6 times as many viewers in Total People. Whilst Big Brother has been a disappointment so far compared to what it used to get on Channel 4, it is still rating strongly for Channel 5 compared to the average and the trend for the past 3 days has been encouraging with all of those shows up on the equivalent in the previous week. It's not the disaster some on here want to make it out to be. For now at least, and annoyingly for the many haters, Big Brother would appear to be stable. The only real concern in the past 7 days has been Friday's eviction shows, which appeared to take a knock from Sky TV of all things. |

Gosh, I'm turning into Steve Williams! ![]() I don't think that was a record low for Panorama, when everything was shoved over to BBC2 for Andy Murray the other year it got 700,000, I think. Famously one former Panorama editor said it didn't matter if they got three viewers as long as they were talking about important things, but their replacement Steve Hewlett, who we mentioned on the other page, said that was not the kind of attitude they should have had, and that he was stopping doing stories about arms dealing because it was boring and irrelevant. Anyway, it's all relative, if it's a foreign story it's always going to do worse than a consumer or domestic story. |

I wouldn't write off the series so readily. It can still pack a very powerful punch - as it did a couple of months ago with the undercover expose of conditions inside the Bristol care home (a prime candidate for a BAFTA this year). It was also ahead of everyone with the FIFA/World Cup corruption story. However, I do agree that it should be making headlines more often than it does. |

Thanks George S for the Irish ratings
![]() Fair City doing well and the Mrs. Brown's Boys repeats great rating for the GAA final surprised The X Factor doesn't do better on TV3 I rather watching it on TV3 re Corrie I tend to watch the first one on TV3 and the second one on UTV because it starts first on TV3 but the second one is held back by the Monday millions draw I watch EE on BBC because I can't be bothered to sit through the ad breaks |

Early households from US suggest Terra Nova (6.4) is off to a solid but potentially disappointing start all things considered. Two and a Half Men (13.9) is down from last week but still huge and 2 Broke Girls (7.1) seems to have retained a decent chunk of its debut audience despite a timeslot move. Dancing with the Stars (11.9) still very low by its standard - that's a 20% drop vs. last year.
Full numbers in about two hours. |

Tubridy has stated that the clash could cause problems. TV3 is fast owning Saturday & Sundays with UK X Factor, the Ireland Apprentice will launch on Mondays and RTE1's Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday offerings are poor. RTE2's big hope Ireland Masterchef is as best a modest hit by their standards. |

Quite a low night for BBC1 last night. Panorama did very poorly and the 9pm doc also did poorly. Eastenders did alright, share was below average for a Monday showing though. Doc Martin is still going strong, although I would have expected it to rise a little given the BBC's doc is dropping every week. Nothing to worry about with Doc Martin though and it is now in a similar situation as New Tricks was with the main competition being below 3m.
Hollyoaks did well yesterday to bring in 1.31m (7%). Not as high as last Monday but it is encouraging to see another strong start to the week for the 2nd consecutive week. At the moment the monthly overnight average is 40k below September's of last year, which is just borderline close enough to call it level year-on-year I think. Channel 4's primetime schedule is a tad disappointing though with Embarrassing Bodies struggling to get 2m (inc +1). Hard to believe just 3 or 4 months ago a new episode pulled in overnights of 3.5m (inc +1). I wouldn't of thought Doc Martin would have much crossover audience but I suppose it is possible. On C5, good to see the Gadget show rise a bit to over 800k. It is below where it should be of course, but at least demonstrating that it is still salvageable. Big Brother did reasonably relative to its recent levels. |

Adjustments from the Sunday finals in the US have Desperate Housewives, The Simpsons and CSI: Miami adjusted up a tenth and 60 Minutes adjusted down.
NBC Sunday Night Football – 8.3 The Simpsons – 3.9 Desperate Housewives – 3.2 CSI: Miami – 2.3 60 Minutes – 2.3 Everything else is unchanged. With that Top 10 18-49 Demo No duplicate episodes 1. Two and a Half Men – 10.7 2. Sunday Night Football – 8.3 3. Two Broke Girls – 7.1 4. Modern Family 6.1 5. How I Met Your Mother – 5.1 6. The Big Bang Theory – 5.1 7. New Girl – 4.8 8. The X Factor – 4.4 9. NCIS – 4.3 =10. Criminal Minds – 4.1 =10. Grey’s Anatomy – 4.1 =10. Family Guy – 4.1 Surprisingly Dancing with the Stars, Glee and The Office all miss out on a top ten spot from premiere week. If we were allowing duplicate episodes we’d have two episodes of Big Bang Theory and two episodes of How I Met Your Mother on the list. I’ve also excluded Fox’s football overrun and NBC’s Sunday Night Football pre-game. CBS dominates the list though with 6 shows, Fox has 3, ABC have 2 and NBC has a grand total of 1 show. |

Looks like Exposure's been, er, exposed....

How I Met Your Mother was adjusted up to 5.2 so that would put it ahead of Big Bang Theory.
Also Terra Nova starts with a very disappointing 3 in the demo across its two-hour debut. |

US Ratings – Monday September 26
After a couple of years of false starts Terra Nova finally debuted on Fox last night and it faltered straight out of the gate. In general terms its performance was a solid enough start but for a drama with both the production and promotional budget of Terra Nova that’s nowhere near good enough. It’s been a Fall of big gambles for Fox and so far those gambles haven’t paid off quite as they’d hoped and they’ve still got the stop and start Bones/The Finder scheduling on Thursday nights to come. Meanwhile it was another fantastic night for CBS who saw much stronger than expected retention vs. last week. Two and a Half Men dropped 33% from last week’s series high whilst 2 Broke Girls dropped just 37% despite a lower lead-in and a new timeslot. How I Met Your Mother was down just 6% and Mike & Molly returned with a series high – Emmy bump? Bridesmaid bump? Two and a Half Men bump? You decide. ABC and NBC both had bad nights. Dancing with the Stars hit a series low for a performance show. Meanwhile NBC’s line-up fell vs. last week to even lower levels with The Playboy Club looking increasingly likely to be pulled sooner rather than later. And The CW continues go largely unwatched. Total viewers now added ABC 8PM: Dancing with the Stars – 3.2 [15.73] 9PM: Dancing with the Stars – 3.4 [16.31] 10PM: Castle – 2.9 – [11.90] CBS 8PM: How I Met Your Mother – 4.4 [10.56] 8:30PM: 2 Broke Girls – 4.5 [11.58] 9PM: Two and a Half Men – 7.2 [20.03] 9:30PM: Mike & Molly – 4.9 [13.98] 10PM: Hawaii Five-0 – 3.3 [11.06] Fox 8PM: Terra Nova – 3.0 [9.03] 9PM: Terra Nova – 3.1 [8.97] NBC 8PM: The Sing-Off – 1.7 [4.84] 9PM: The Sing-Off – 1.6 [3.94] 10PM: The Playboy Club – 1.3 [3.91] The CW 8PM: Gossip Girl – 0.8 [1.41] 9PM: Hart of Dixie – 0.8 [1.79] |
