I think we need some facts put back in this thread. I'm somewhat bewildered by those that are calling The X Factor's ratings good. If I'm to be quite honest, I think they're alright. Not bad, but nothing to be impressed about. Now, to compare:
2008 - 10.4m (41.0%) *peak: 11.3m (49%) 2009 - 11.3m (43.8%) *peak: 12.9m 2010 - 12.2m (48.5%) *peak: 13.8m 2011 - 10.4m (40.3%) / 10.9m *peak: 12.1m / 12.7m Now, the clash period: 2008 - no clash 2009 - 75 minute clash 2010 - no clash 2011 - 35 minute clash Even if it didn't clash, I think it would have been ~11.4m including +1, without seeing a breakdown it's hard to know who dented what. However, do I think it will rate lower than 2009 and 2010 in the series' averages? Yes. |

Promo has begun for 5*'s Alphas with one spot before Big Brother and one spot during Big Brother. Of course, the show will eventually end up facing Big Brother. D'oh! Looks great though.

You obviously don't watch then as apart from at the beginning of the show The X Factor rarely has "still to come" - they just crash straight into the break.

Big Brother- 1.02m
Xtra Factor- 796,000 That's low for Xtra Factor. |

While I'm on the page...
- Strictly beat X Factor in clash - England game peaked with 6.2m (54%) - Wales/Ireland thrashed the F1 but GP got good repeat rating - 4.4m for TV Burp return - Despite BB breaking 1m, ITV3 pipped C5 in primetime - ITV1's all-day share was 24.3% (+1: 5%) - David Croft tribute did really well for BBC2

You're right though relative to previous years I can't imagine ITV being overjoyed with this figure. |

8The figures for X factor are obviously going to be lower than usual.
2 years ago there was a 75 minute clash and that X factor still rated 1m better than last nights.Quote:
No clash tonight, so it should easily top 11 million, if not higher.

The amount of people that vote anyway is incredibly small, I doubt it made much difference with regards whether they would choose to watch or not.

Anyway forgetting about X Factor for a minute. I am stunned by those BBC 2 Ratings really to get 3 programs over 2m is amazing and it seems to have gone unnoticed

True. But i on the X Factor thread alot of people hate the twist and i've read some twitter comments who hate it to. So it's possible that it might have had some impact

Its always very tricky to talk about The X Factor's ratings because the second you use the words 'poor' or 'disappointing' to describe a 10+ million average it feels wrong and people question it.

Ironic that with the talk all week of "the twist", TXF should then go on to lose out to a dance show when head to head!

Hilarious. Maybe GeorgeS can get you a job in the ITV Department of Spin?
Yeah, like those who are so obsessed by every minutiae of TXF that they fill 150 pages up on DS during each show are actually going to not tune in to their favourite show because "they hate the twist".....

I think that considering that Merlin is down on its overnight figures too compared to last year it might point to a continuing change in viewing habits. It'll be interesting to see the finally figures for episode one in a week or two because I would bet they are on par with last year. It really feels like fewer and fewer people feel the need to watch TV live now. Of course, for the BBC that isn't too much of a headache and 5.5m is a very respectable figure if it's getting nearer 7m overall (not even including the iPlayer). More troublesome for the commercial channels obviously.
That really was a poor showing for Burp's return last night, although the content itself wasnt that bad. |

I don't see why people are agruing over TXF ratings, it did VERY well as there was a clash.
What is worrying is the Xtra Factor. I know the main show was long and people didn't want to watch another hour of it, but 796k out of 11m coming back is not too good, compared to the lets say, Mark's exit from Big Brother being watched by 1.4m, and 400k watching on 5* the same day. There was a bigger retention (to a much smaller channel than ITV2) |
