Attentional's website blog still has not updated with ratings, meaning they are almost certainly delayed, or too low for anyone to care about.

Some PRO tweeted that the Line of Duty won the 9pm slot with 3.3m

Which probably doesn't include HD, so very good.

There seems plenty of scope for a second series.

As for New Tricks, I think they should save that for Sunday nights from September.

Downton Abbey will begin its third series in mid-September (and on a Sunday) I'd assume, given that it launched 18 September last year.

Would it be wise for the BBC to put New Tricks up against it?

No it should stay on Monday night like last year, unlike last year it doesn't have Doc Martin to get in its way in the Autumn.

Crime thriller #lineofduty bowed out from BBC2 with excellent 3.1m/13.8%, only just below BBC1 Share in same slot
Going for gold: #BBC comedy #twentytwelve concluded on BBC2 with audience of 1.5m/7.3%

Channel 4 Press ‏@C4Press
1.6m watched Jon Richardson: A Little Bit OCD at 10pm on Channel 4 last night, winning the slot for 16-34s #4GoesMad

A great rating - but I did hope it would win the slot, for my own amusement

Big congrats to BBC Two - a great run of ratings with that drama.

Line of Duty 3.1m viewers (13.8%)

Turn Back Time – the Family 3.1m (14%)

Very close there....

EastEnders 6.64m
Holby City 4.64m
Love Your Garden 3.26m (inc +1)
Superstar 2.75m (inc +1)

i am very much looking forward to Line of Duty.

The butler did it with a candlestick....oops!! now you can watch wall to wall Olympics...

lol yes whilst I cant stop any of you discussing spoilers related to the show, just let me know if you do, so I can skip the post.

You can spoil "Superstar" for me, if you like, I have not been saving that.

BBC2 cop drama #LineofDuty bows out on winning 3.3m at 9pm. BBC1 factual offering 2nd with 3.1m. ITV's Superstar remains stubbornly below 3m

That must include BBC HD

Somehow doubt anyone has been saving that.

Line of Duty is well worth watching


wonder if superstar will make it above 3m for the final.

I forgot to put a winky at the end of my post. I was well aware of Downton - it would be interesting to see what ITV did if BBC1 got its big drama series in the slot first.

And the impact on this thread - "RadioTimes-gate" this week would be a mere stirring...

I see All creatures Great and Small is starting on Yesterday from the begiining at 4pm, interesting.

So, the top 10 most viewed shows so far this year:

1. Euro 2012: England vs Italy - 20.34m (65.32%)

2. Diamond Jubilee Concert - 15.32m (54.60%)

3. Euro 2012: England vs Sweden - 14.25m (51.79%)

4. Euro 2012: England vs Ukraine - 12.98m (45.60%

5. Euro 2012: England vs Italy (post-match) - 12.68m (51.87%)

6. Euro 2012: Spain vs Italy - 12.41m (44.75%)

7. Euro 2012: England vs Sweden (post-match) - 12.21m (45.85%)

8. The Voice (14/4/2012) - 11.99m (47.02%)

9. Wimbledon 2012 - 11.51m (57.44%)

10. Coronation Street (23/1/2012) - 11.42m (42.98%)

So amazingly even though the Britain's Got Talent final was the most viewed show of the year at the time, it's not even up there. Anyone able to find the peaks + shares for the above?

BARB ratings data supplied by Attentional

I would say EE looks low, but Emmerdale is not better, and EE has the better share, some of this "ratings crisis" is partly to do with the weather, and hitting all the soaps. CSI did well (and out rated C4) however, even if all critical acclaim for Tuesday has been on Line of Duty.

Looks like Superstar will avoid dipping below 2 million, which I guess is some small crumb of comfort for ITV.

That did make me look twice, then I realised that adding the . between the 2 and 5 would make the link not work...

I also fall for that sometimes, then again 25 million is impossible for that show.

1. Euro 2012: England vs Italy - 20.34m (65.32%) 23.2m (77.4%)
2. Diamond Jubilee Concert - 15.32m (54.60%) 16.86m (65.4%)
3. Euro 2012: England vs Sweden - 14.25m (51.79%) 16.3m
4. Euro 2012: England vs Ukraine - 12.98m (45.60%) 18.5m (65%)
6. Euro 2012: Spain vs Italy - 12.41m (44.75%) 14.5m
8. The Voice (14/4/2012) - 11.99m (47.02%) 12m (45.7%)
9. Wimbledon 2012 - 11.51m (57.44%) 16.9m (67.9%)
10. Coronation Street (23/1/2012) - 11.42m (42.98%) (peak/share would hardly change)


Overnight peaks are shown in bold, it would be impossible to have a +7 day peak or share. Euro 2012 post match data, I could not find.

The superb Line of Duty has been recommissioned.

Charnham ** do not read that link ** - massive spoiler, and it was not the butler...

I had already passed on reading the link, but thanks.
