Do you voice Optimus Prime? Revenge of the Fallen ought rate well, it does end just in time for Downton Abbey also.
lol no I didnt voice Optimus Prime. My reason was that I dont like the Transformers movies, so I over predicted to account for my negative bias towards the movies.

Good luck this season, hope you can do all 13 weeks. I think 500 points is the benchmark to aim for.
yep good luck to us all, hopefully a top 10 finish for the season over all, along with a few wins.

Glad that football rating mistake wasnt me.

Thanks for all the kind comments folks. I thought I'd blown it earlier last week (by not taking into account the glorious weather back in England).

Really enjoyed playing. A big thanks to Dancc for all your hard work.

Well done Roscoe for topping the YTD charts.
I'm gonna give Season 16 a miss.

Good luck Charnham
Seems Charnham's chances of winning have gone from highly unlikely to potentially possible, if 30 more players drop out that is! - just joking

damm you Great British Bake Off.
I knew it was going to climb on last week but 4.6m is amazing for BBC2. I was just relieved I am not total bottom - but very almost.

Tonight we have 'All Roads Lead Home' 20:00 BBC Two & 'The Daily Mirror’s Pride of Britain Awards 2011' 20:00 ITV1. I have gone hugely high for POBA and in the middle for ARLH. A 5er is something I really need to climb up the table even a little.

I will be very surprised if POBA doesn't rate 6m easily.

Yes, I was surprised at the low predictions for POBA. It's cleared 6m in the 2 years prior at least.

I think it will be around about the 6m mark again. I personally went a little under. (5.9m)

Waiting on the official update from Dancc, but unofficially it looks like a 3rd programme of the week (out of 5) has been hard to pick and a fiver missed yet again. Two mains, a special and a back-up tonight. At least I ought make double figures by tomorrow.

You were right. Looks like my schedule is proving to be fairly tough (so far).

my EastEnders prediction was law, I appear to be underestimating how much viewers like Ben Mitchell and the Moon family. However I do believe I have scored my first ten, so hopefully ill claim a bit off the back of that.

grahamzxy I am eager to see your predictions for next week.

EE was really high, Hidden was hard to get spot on, I actually picked a number then went higher. Hopefully I will find next week's game a walk in the park by comparison.
