I suspect BGT will timeshit quite well given the show ran until 9.45pm. The household watched In It to Win It since they wanted to switch over to BBC 2 at 9.20pm.
It has been reported in other countries The Voice ratings start to dip once the blind auditions finish. Will be interesting how The Cube fared. I notice Million Pound Drop finished a good 5-10 minutes early last night so I suspect that will be tape checked for 9.45-11.10pm |

Really surprised at both of those. BGT being down week on week despite losing the overlap is a big disappointment for ITV, with the peak in particular way off last week (I wonder if this week's revelations have put people off watching Cowell's shows for a bit). I also expected The Voice to rise, particularly as it had an extra 10 mins at the end and no BGT overlap.
Worth noting that BGT needed early again so it'll be tapechecked. Still doesn't explain why it was so (relatively) low. |

This was my biggest surprise at first, but the gap with BGT just doesn't really fit anything we've seen over previous weeks.I thought The Voice would win, but only by rising relatively higher! Still, healthy ratings for a returning show, and healthy ratings for a new one! And by healthy I mean fantastic! Next week will be when we see if theres any downward trend for either show (The Voice tonight is too wild an animal, will people know its on Sunday? Will Sunday audience watch as well...etc. etc. - so I'd forgive any significiant or small drops) |

It that really all the BBC should be aspiring too?
Time after time, the BBC gets away with just doing pale imitations of commercial shows.. Weakest Link => Millionaire The Voice => X Factor now if the BBC is just ITV without the ads, drop the licence fee, and let it survive on subs. Countryfile => Countrywise The Apprentice/Dragon's Den => Tycoon Not just the BBC that does pale imitations is it? ![]() Quote:
Re Dancing On Ice, I dont have to pay for that, and neither are you so if you dont like it its no big deal.
A few people will be paying for Dancing On Ice after that last series. Quote:
If you want to have pot shots at why BGT rates less than The Voice when they are head-to-head, it is because ITV has to run an ad break during that time and then clearly funding method is relevant.
You take pot shots at BBC shows and rarely if ever give credit.Quote:
Honestly you guys are so far removed from reality of how business actually works, that there is not much point in wasting time arguing with you. Keep on living in fantasy land.
We know quite a lot about what happens in the commercial world more than we can say publicly!

Possibly. I was surprised they left in jokes about Cowell's relationships

Neither rating fits in with the patterns of the last few weeks, so let's hope that last night was just a blip. And ultimately I agree, they're still fantastic figures (and BGT was still up on the same episode in 2011 and 2010). I thought The Voice would win, but only by rising relatively higher! Still, healthy ratings for a returning show, and healthy ratings for a new one! And by healthy I mean fantastic! Next week will be when we see if theres any downward trend for either show (The Voice tonight is too wild an animal, will people know its on Sunday? Will Sunday audience watch as well...etc. etc. - so I'd forgive any significiant or small drops) I think both will be up next week. The Voice will be live so that will help and BGT is down to 60 mins rather than 75, so ends at 9:30pm rather than 9:45pm which should boost the average. Also things should have gone a bit quieter about Cowell's love life |

Mike Large Probably just a rather strange coincidence that #TheVoiceUK overran by 3 minutes last night and overlapped with #BGT.... Quote:
Mike Large I think ITV don't really see the irony here ...those kind of overruns only normally tend to happen on live shows, don't they?

Both BGT and TVUK were down about -11% compared to where I expected them to be. TVUK had 10.7m last week so without the overlap and longer duration to build up its audience, I thought it would've got about 11.1m. Whilst BGT without the overlap ought to have gone up the best part of a million to about 10.5m (full-slot) compared to last week's full-slot figure of 9.6m. The gap between the two programmes is not all that different to what I thought it would've been but both are about 1.2m lower then what I was predicting - I dunno what exactly but some external factors must've affected their ratings yesterday and I wouldn't be surprised if both are back up next week.
As for The Voice peaking higher than Britain's Got Talent, I think that might become the case every week apart from the BGT final, even if BGT beats it in the averages, as long as TVUK doesn't lose a lot of momentum in the next month. BGT's highest peak so far this series was 12.2m whilst TVUK's was 12.1m when it overlapped against BGT last week. Without the overlap, TVUK will have a great opportunity to build up its audience to a big peak between 8-8.30pm which is right in the middle of primetime. BGT, starting at 8.30pm, will find it a bit more difficult to build up its audience as after 9.15pm the total TV levels will be falling and even if it peaks around 12m like previous episodes or even at 12.5m let's say, TVUK will probably be higher (close to 13m or relatively speaking compared to BGT as in last night's case) as long as it doesn't lose a lot of momentum the next few weeks. Obviously last night the peaks fell well short of those numbers but hopefully yesterday was just an anomaly and both return to at least last week's levels from next Saturday. |

BGT didn't benefit as I expected from the much shorter overlap. Some disappointment certainly for ITV there.
The Voice also down but the auditions are over so it could be due to that. What can I say about The Cube? It's dead. |

Both shows around 900k below where I expected, thankfully they were not on the RPG! Glad TV won easily, it might help ITV1 raise their game with the edit next week.
What wll TV get tonight? will there be more people watching tv tonight or will viewer apathy affect TV? |

As for The Voice, well I find the battle rounds a bit strange, too much shouty stuff and the contestants almost singing at each other rather than in harmony. They have chosen well in limiting them imo. The Cube, my word, I wonder if PS will be keeping away from Twitter today. |

Interesting headline choice from DS:

So BGT actually WAS the most watched tv programme on Saturday. So much for Hodges spin. |
