2.7m for the BBC race package, 0.25m for Sky's.
Did not expect a ten to one trouncing! |

How do these compare to Sky's own estimates?

Not too sure, I think DMN probably has the estimates Sky made beforehand. That rating yesterday looks low though, think they would've wanted more than 246k.

John Plunkett from Media Guardian seems to have got the Sky F1 figures wrong (he said peak was 455k). Two other sources, including Broadcast's Jake Kanter, say that the Sky Sports F1 coverage actually peaked with 1.0m/22pct.

Last year's for comparison Quote:
Live coverage of Sebastian Vettel's win attracted an average of 2.129 million viewers and a 51.1% audience share yesterday morning. http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011...gs?INTCMP=SRCHBBC1's lunchtime repeat of the race averaged 2.016 million and 20%. How often do BARB update the panel with numbers who have HD pack and/or SS1 & 2? |

Sky did say beforehand they were expecting an average of 1.34m for exclusive races.

3.2m and 1.0m the respectable peaks then. Down considerably on last few years but nice Sky figure. (posting off phone!)

Do Sky repeat the F1 during the day? Are those figures added in?

Was just coming in here to say how disappointed Sky would be with the average being below 300k but the actual ratings suggest a very strong performance indeed, albeit slightly below the numbers that Sky were pitching to advertisers.
Nonetheless I think they will be delighted with those figures for a 6am start and even more delighted if a healthy proportion of those watching were new Sky customers. The fact that 267,000 people watched the 90 minute build is a very positive sign - although I think the conclusion of many F1 fans is that Sky's pre and post race coverage will need to improve on yesterday's offering. Broadcast say the average of the whole programme, from 4.30 - 9.00 was 526k (16.68%). Also delighted to see Homeland continuing to do great business for C4, the series really starts picking up in the next few weeks so it should hold on to those numbers. |

At least Sky have some hard data to work with now. There must be millions of Sky Sports subscribers, like myself, who get the channel by default but have zero interest in F1 and won't watch it. |

Were they pitching a season average or for that particular early start race?

Very rare to see a US import show an increase in ratings these days from its debut episode, am struggling to think the last time this happened? Glee?
Plus with BBC1 increasingly close to collapsing at 9PM with Upstairs, Downtstairs and not much in the way of compelling competition on ITV1 Channel 4 timed the launch of Homeland well. Titanic is the next big challenge. |

Let's hope Homeland doesn't get lost in the shuffle next few weeks with Titanic and Silent Witness appearing on the scene. I fear it might.
But so far so good anyway, I've been pleasantly surprised by how well it has held up so far. It just shows what a good show it is that the audience are sticking with it to this extent. |

So presumably Hill's not signing a multi-million pound deal with Channel 4 then. A lucky escape for them I feel. It'll be interesting to see whether or not ITV have offered him more shows to get him to stay with TV Burp.

According to Broadcast, last night's Millionaire is the most watched episode for more than 3 years.
Looks like ITV have picked a good time to bring back the "normal" version. |

Homeland is an all too rare thing these days, a great US import.
In reality, I don't suppose he knows a thing about it!! |
