X Factor will top the ratings chart this year even before the final. It only needs 14million and it has done it. I think it will be number one following the results show on the 13th November.
But if the Sunday show moves up then it is the most likely. Still don't buy into this '13th Nov' show stuff though. The average should go up but not as much as some say. |

Yep, X Factor was officially the most watched programme of 2010 and will go down in the record books as that, whether or not Robbie agrees
. Here's the full Top 100 list of 2010: http://www.broadcastnow.co.uk/Journa...0Top%20100.pdfWorld Cup 2010 obviously peaked higher (~21m for a match IIRC) so World Cup 2010 had the "most watched moment" on TV last year, but the general methodology to determine "most watched programme" over the years has usually been done by averages, not peaks. |

Somebody asked earlier how Little England rated on ITV1 at 8pm last night. It had 3.5m (14.5%) according to Twitter sources.

I'm just bored of the spin now. It astounds me that the camp on here that maintain it is doing fantastically every time there's a rise can't see how their reasoning is as flawed as the tabloid journalists that claim it's in crisis. Both as bad as eachother!
LOL DANNCC! I hope that comment was meant in jest considering your comical spinning for Channel 5! ha ha ha! ![]() ![]() ![]() Speaking of Channel 5, it had a bad night last night. Gadget Show and Hotel Inspector are pulling in poor numbers and Big Brother continues to pull in disappointing ratings. Excellent for Coronation Street and Doc Martin. X- Factor did well on Sunday and hopefully will gain some momentum from there.

What stands out on that 2010 chart is how enormous I'm A Celebrity was last year. 13.48m - equalling the Britain's Got Talent finale. Strictly only beat it thanks to a record setting year. Having the XF weekend lead-ins has certainly boosted the franchise over the last few years, but it's nevertheless shown pretty admirable longevity to capitalise. Always seems a bit of an anachronism these days - a pretty dated concept that you feel belongs in the early 2000's, yet is still perennially popular when all its peers fell by the wayside. Quote:
Big football matches are probably the only event where BARB figures are clearly inaccurate because they don't measure people watching in pubs etc (for obvious reasons they can't). So I guess for the ''real'' figure you can add at least a million to any World Cup match involving England.That would put the England v Germany game in No 2 spot.
It's actually another reason I considered the Royal Wedding numbers to be so impressive this year - it's pretty clear there was a lot of out-of-home viewing for that too. Especially if you compared it to, for instance, the Diana funeral where a much greater proportion of viewing would be done at home because of the sombre nature of the occasion. Quote:

Regarding The Cube, I'm not too surprised by the 4m rating for it. It's the type of show you can just dip in and out of or just put on in the background. It's not really an unmissable gameshow that will get bums on seats. 4m isn't a disaster, but it should be edging towards 5m I think.
A shame about Top Boy recording a low figure. I haven't watched it yet, but it looks really good and it's always nice to see Channel 4 attempting new comedy and drama. I hope the low figures doesn't put them off trying to find a new drama/comedy hit. |

I thought half term was over? Anyway, may I make something very clear here: I won't be bullied by you or anyone else for having different viewing preferences to everybody else. Whilst I may only choose to comment on the specific figures that interest me sometimes, my analysis of the ratings is always fair and honest, and the more discerning readers will know this so that's all that matters to me.

Was just pointing out that it seems pretty ironic that your tired of spin when 90% of your posts on this thread are promoting Channel 5 in some way or trying to put a spin on there figures. I don't believe you work for them so don't see what benefit it has to you?
I've already pointed out today for example that Celebrity Wish List is losing out to E4+1 in the ratings. Nobody else had brought this to light. Does that sound like pro-C5 spin to you? What I choose to write about in here is perfectly up to me I believe, as long as it's ratings related (and that does include programming and scheduling for obvious reasons). |

Its the type of show I think which will increase week on week as people realise its on and as you say - put it on in the background. Quote:

XF always rates better on Sundays, and the rise from Saturday to Sunday has been the case for the previous two series too (which were considered successful). The main reasons for this are:
1. more people watch TV on a Sunday. A 40% share on a Saturday = c10m, whereas 40% on a Sunday = c11m. 2. on Saturdays, XF clashes against SCD which drags down its average. On Sundays it doesn't clash. 3. on Saturdays, some of XF's target audience (young 16-34 viewers) are out whereas on Sundays they're in. Quote:
Will C4 be happy with Top Boy numbers?

Misfits did solidly on E4, considering what I thought was a very difficult slot indeed. I'll be keeping a close eye on that one for the next few weeks to see how the numbers react to the new lead.

E4+1 is funny as its top ten is made up every week of 9 Big Bang Theories and 1 ep of something else.

Channel 5 have had success showing archive shows such as An Audience with Bruce Forsyth which did 1.4m which is impressive for a repeat and also old sitcoms at Christmas and last Christmas they showed TOTP2. I have no qualm about it because some of it rates quite well, think Morecambe and Wise did 3m on BBC Two as did a repeat of the Two Ronnies
I wonder when Channel 4 will show Homeland? I think January or February would work either on Mondays or Thursdays at 10pm, it wouldn't surprise if it gets a first look on More4 either on Thursdays or Sundays. |

Sunday: So TXF scores 12.2m inc. +1. A good rating for they show. Obviously down y-o-y but at least there wasn't a further decline. I do agree with Score's comments about the all the posts regarding TXF. It has become a major chore recently this thread with the endless comments about the same subject. I'm glad the mods have caught onto this too. Just tone it down guys. I think we all know the situation with TXF now. Downton Abbey posted a great rating. Should end on a series high this weekend. Countryfile also did very well. Shocking how popular that show is really. The Cube returned as expected for me. I wasn't expecting a 5m+ rating with TXF down y-o-y.
Monday: All the soaps seemed to be hit quite badly by Halloween - I wasn't really expecting that. The first dark night for the soaps and they all go down. Emmerdale just under 7m, EE just topping 8m and Corrie not that far out of line with previous weeks but when compared to the same episodes last year, it makes for very poor reading indeed. I thought Doc Martin would have been closer to 9m too, but with timeshift it will be close to 10m and it becomes the most watched series so far for it. Hollyoaks received a very nice bump for the murder storyline. Maybe first look also knocked down Emmerdale abit too. |

10 O'Clock Live to return to Channel 4 http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011...l-4?CMP=twt_fd
Channel 4 has confirmed a second series order of 10 O'Clock Live, but has tweaked the show's format and cut its running time to 45 minutes. The live programme, which airs on a Thursday night and aims to lure younger viewers turned off by Newsnight and Question Time, retains its four original presenters, with Charlie Brooker and Lauren Laverne again joining Carr and Mitchell. It will return to Channel 4 in early 2012. The first series of 10 O'Clock Live, which began in January and ran for 15 episodes, launched with 1.9 million viewers to a generally positive critical reaction. It featured interviews with politicians and cultural commentators, as well as debates and sketches. But by the end of the run its average audience had dropped to 1 million, as the show's writers struggled to keep producing engaging new material to fill an hour of airtime. |
