and for the rest of the thread, what is this Text Santa show? I am pretty sure Santa does not want ITV viewers texting him on Christmas Eve night, given that he will be very busy giving out presenters elsewhere in the world. |

Tomorrow's Telegraph features Bruce and Tess on it's front page with the headline: "Why Strictly beats X Factor"
Sir Bruce says that The X Factor is losing viewers because of the 'scripted rows' between the judges. (Please note it wasn't my copy. I was reading it in a pub) |

I think the only paper left that hasn't switched allegiance to Strictly is The Sun.

I suspect The Star might still be backing TXF, but I can't say I take any notice of anything The Star does or says, and I'd question whether it counts as a 'newspaper' anyway. ![]() We're certainly in interesting times though, with TXF experiencing something of a fall from grace, and I'm already looking forward to seeing what will happen with the two shows next year. Will TXF continue to fall or will it rebound? Will Strictly continue to perform as well as this year, decline or even rise? It'll be interesting. I suspect ITV might look to BGT to restore a bit of goodwill towards the Cowell shows as an overall brand to help TXF when it returns. BGT is actually looking healthier than TXF just now (despite the lower series average), which I certainly wasn't expecting to be the case at the end of last year!

Any idea of the Saturday night line-ups from January ? Something like this ?
BBC One : Total Wipeout, The Magicians, Who Dares Wins / In It to Win It ITV1 : Primeval, TV Burp, Take Me Out, The Exit List ? |

But if they weren't able to charge full rates on Thanksgivings Eve why would they do it? They could argue no competition + all new originals = pretty decent ratings (even with deductions).

I'm not saying that I would do it, especially with a very serialised programme like Revenge, which is best suited to being week after week. The only reason X Factor was on last night was because it needs to get rid of people (2 this week, 2 next week).

Tonights(Friday) is going to be the same i think Sadly there was a clash but we could be in for a good BBC3 Repeat and Sunday Omnibus rating. |

Surprised To The Manor Reborn was so low. I thought it would have caught out a few more oldies than that. That nice Penelope Keith, Paul Martin (who could pass as DeVere's son), country house.

Not exactly soaring in the ratings as it comes to a climax? That.probably includes the repeat too, so I'll wager it was in the high 7s only against a poor effort for BBC1 and soap hour lead in.

The Royal Bodyguard now is the main picture on the "BBC Christmas Highlights" article, before it was Doctor Who. Is this a sign that this is going to get a prime time slot on Christmas Day?

Sir Bruce says that The X Factor is losing viewers because of the 'scripted rows' between the judges. Brucie is rather sad that at 84 he still gives a flying duck about ratings. Does anybody buy these constant newspaper placements by SCD that they dont court publicity and spin? I expect we will see more of it in the weekend press - probably a Brucie exclusive telling us how he doesnt do press interviews or some such nonsense |

I too expected IAC to do better than 8.3m even if that doesn't include +1. |
