Let's be honest here, we're talking about something which has a very slim chance of happening.

That Eastenders entry is, I believe, the total for 3 showings of the Christmas Day episode.

As many others have pointed out, we now have 50+ channels that aren't showing something in particular. I ignore most hype, I turn on the football just before kick off, then switch over at full time. Some people are just easily annoyed by trivial things... Quote:

With the media hype and excitement in the country if England did actually make it to the final i think across BBC and ITV you would be looking at an average of 30m + viewers.
In fact who in the UK would not watch the England team in the biggest final since 1966 ![]() |

BBC1 have exclusive live rights to England in the quarter and semi finals of EURO 2012.
If England reach the EURO 2012 final the match will be shown live on both BBC1 and ITV1 and would most likely become the most watched british tv event of all time ![]() If it were to happen I'd say you'd be looking at 22-25m absolute max, but even that is optimistic for a Euros final. A World Cup might be a different matter, but I couldn't see it topping 16m or so on BBC1, and then ITV making up the difference, so probably 20m or so. |

Ireland are going out of Euro 2012. Will BBC1 now show the more important and exciting Spain v Croatia match on Monday, the winner of which will go through and loser probably will go out? Or will they still show the Ireland game in which the Irish are playing just for pride to avoid an embarrassing 0 points.

Big result for ITV though, denying BBC1 a crunch Irish nailbiter. GeorgeS will be ecstatic... |

I had to laugh about the ratings for a nuclear war. Having watched the DVD of Threads recently, news and Protect and Survive adverts were all the programming was made up of on the last day of civilisation, but who would be able to count who had watched all this plus the first bombs falling.

You'd think the former. They will be showing both anyway on BBC1/3, so Irish diehards can watch there.

George S is Irish isnt he? Hes probably drowning his sorrows right now, poor old Ireland are gonna be the first team to be knocked out of Euro 2012.
And will the BBC show Ireland on Monday night on BBC1 or move it to BBC3. Ratings versus football relevance? Italy should beat Ireland and end up on 5 points; Croatia if they draw versus Spain get 5 points. If they win they go through. To me the Spain vs Croatia game is now the more relevant one. |

What sort of ratings have the alternative games on BBC3/ITV4 got in previous tournaments? |

I'm a bit of a few nationalities. I'm finding Spain's performance to be fantastic. Exhibition stuff.

ITV appear to have decided beforehand to screen Netherlands v Portugal on ITV1 and Germany v Denmark on ITV4. Will ITV put ratings before football relevance now that Germany have established themselves as the second biggest ratings draw of the tournament?

I'd be surprised if they didn't show Ireland, but Spain v Croatia should do quite well for BBC3.

I know its never gonna happen but if Itv put England v Ukraine on Itv4, how many less viewers do you think it'd get than if it was on Itv1? It would smash digital rating records by a country mile and never get beaten again.

Judging by tonight, Ireland though they were in the Eurovision Song Contest. Maybe they can play Jedward against Italy?

AND SWAP THE TWO MATCHES OVERQuote:
Germany are through and should beat the Danes. So the Netherlands match is the crucial one.
And you've just said ITV are putting Germany on ITV4. I'm confused about your point?
Spoiler
edit: and for the record, I'm jesting and don't believe for one second that ITV will change their plan. |
