Channel 4's film alternatives held up well.

In all honesty the show was sinking before Cheryl Cole was announced or appeared on the show so you can't blame her!
With the show in a hole what you shouldn't do is keep digging

They only invited her as part of the whole anti-Cowell vibe they had going on. It might have worked had it been during the period when they were beating Cowell & getting high ratings.

I think The Voice probably did about as well as it was ever going to do last night. Solid for Eurovision.

Saturday 26th May Overnights
BBC One 14:15- Golf: PGA Championship: 0.8m (11.8%) BBC Two 16:45- Golf: PGA Championship: 0.7m ( 7.3%) This is a big event in the golf calendar and Sky Sports gets figures not dissimilar to those for some of its exclusive tournaments. |

Superb Eurosong figures given the heat, the football, the voting, and a UK flop!
Did not see those strong numbers coming! The contest does seem to be down across Europe though on 2011. Quote:
Bizarre.. The Voice seems to be doing worse than Fame Academy now

It would be interesting to see how many of those viewers also have access to Sky Sports.

As expected for The Voice really - but 4.5m is a disaster! Saying that, the overnight series average currently stands at 7.9m although after tonights results show and next weeks final, it will be lower. Maybe 6m for next weeks final? I bet no one saw this coming after the incredible start it had. Eurovision did well, and was never going to match last years 11-year high so 7.5m is a respectable figure. Poor for the England game - but the 6m match average is good. It's the whole programme average that drags it down massively.

Decent for Eurovision, a group of us watched it last night and it was as tacky as ever. The excitement came from the results not the performances.
Reasonable share for TV, it had the worst lead-in possible. It was so warm around 6pm, even I was outside then to keep cool in the shade. I do hope the final bounces back with a respectable 6m+ rating and an impressive peak (8m?). Poor England rating, how low will next week's teatime rating be? under 4m average maybe? |

Think they should just write the Voice off as a big mistake and move on.
Tom Jones on Andrew Marr didnt look very enthusiastic about defending it and the ratings,and said he wants to get this one over with before deciding if he will do another. |

I know Sky had live coverage Thursday and Friday but do they also have non-exclusive coverage of the weekend too?

The Voice's fall has been spectacular which is a shame as it was going so well. Before it started they would have been happy with 6m. Now it isn't even getting that. Will be interesting to see what Danny Cohen has to say on Points Of View today. The ratings aren't good at all. Will he be honest or spin?
Though I imagine the programme will have been recorded at the end of last week before last night's viewing figures came in.IIRC the Fonz in Happy Days was physically incapable of saying "I was wrong". I think all television and newspaper executives suffer from the same affliction. One possible problem for The Voice if it returns next year without some or all of this year's coaches is that they could find it very difficult to find big-name replacements without bankrupting the corporation. ("We're going to need more money than that.") "And let's meet our superstar coaches Rachel Stevens, John Barrowman, Richard Hammond and Danny Cohen."

TBH it's a derivative show and really the BBC should have thought carefully about this. It's not as crass as TXF, but viewers can see it is yet another talent contest.

No, just evening highlights. Of their three 'shared' tournaments, it's only The Masters where they both show the weekend live.

I didn't realise there was no live weekend coverage on Sky Sports. Looks as though the PGA doesn't pick up casual viewers in the same was as the Masters and The Open.
I wonder if the lack of McIlroy, (personally, I can't stand him or the BBC and Sky's fawning over him) had an effect? |

It's quite sad really, Luke Donald did a masterclass yesterday, yet so few tuned in.

The BBC lose live action from next year. Not the biggest of losses but it means yet another afternoon of Bargain Hunt etc. - although yesterday (and today) they did have European Gymnastics on the red button - with the Brits winning the thing too, which could have air in the "Grandstand" slot.

TV audience was climbing until 7:30, then a dip at 7:45. At which point the football started, then at 8:00 Eurovision ensured BBC1 would easily win the night.
BBC1 (and many people) will be hoping for a cooler weekend next week. |

BBC and ITV have launched their Euro 2012 adverts:
- BBC ('For The Pride of Europe'): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4T-U_46AlA - ITV ('It's Good To Dream'): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7UmvGSzCTE Two different approaches. BBC have animation with classy music, although it looks a bit like a quidditch match! ITV showing some old clips with a twist which England fans can dream about. |

Alliss just said "contact us now, this maybe your last opportunity to speak to us live from here at Wentworth after 50 odd years. We're disappearing into that great country club in the sky, some of us, but we'll miss you"
Whatever it is, as with the National, 50 years means very little. |

All times are GMT. The time now is 04:16.




Though I imagine the programme will have been recorded at the end of last week before last night's viewing figures came in.
