It doesn't make much difference to the above table, but I think DS made a typo as Broadcast are reporting 2.7m for Benidorm. I've amended this now and it will take effect from the next update.

JustWonderful and Lion_60 scored 5ers.

I did a list of predictions at the weekend, with England rating 9.0m due to the ITV1 waffle. Then I saw the Getmany rating and quickly added 2.0m more...result zero points..

I think last week was my best chance to win a week, Sunday night however ensured I dropped back a few points. This week looks uphill already, I am concentrating on 10th spot for the season....I need to catch up about 12 points on you first though

Silly Q...but can you clarify what this means if England are knocked out, are we just guessing QF3 & QF4 ratings using our results skills? I know we will not know England status until Tuesday evening. I might have suggested that we select a QF for a potential England match, and 2 non England QF matches

Eg. QF3 = 8.0m
QF4 = 8.0m

However if England are involved, whichever one they are playing in would be the England estimate

ie Eng QF = 14m - and one of 1st two predictions above would be negated....

grahamzxy

15-06-2012

Okay I just realised, cue light bulb moment,

we are giving 4 estimates......2 will be negated, all dependent on which QF England are in, or neither of them

Phew that took me some working out time...

My form has been shocking these past 3-4 weeks though so I can't just blame it on that.

Hopes of a top 5 finish are fading...
