1.7m/8.0% for series premiere of The Hotel Inspector. Get in! Great episode it was too.

Thats no true really. You have rather over simplified how advertising sales work - ie. you can only sell Olympic themed advertising in an olympics themed show.The pre-Olympic advertising is across all programmes. If anything, its the Webber show that is the major pre-Olympic programming event between now & the Olympics.

To be fair, ITV have only had seven years to come up with a good idea for an Olympic-themed entertainment show.

A freak number, entirely due to the prospect of seeing people walk around in the buff.

Melanie Sykes was just on This Morning she said the show 'My Man Can' she is presenting with Mark Wright is filming in September and going to be on ITV1 Saturday nights in January 2013. Gonna be a "massive prime time game show" apparantly.

Cue more patronising anti-male crap. Can you imagine them having a show called "My Woman Can"?

Give it up. George. if you put out a show called Let's Get Gold in the lead up to the Olympics, starring the likes of Rio Ferdinand, you are attempting to cash in on the interest surrounding the Games, and hoping to sell ad spots to companies who target sports fans.

It's the right strategy for ITV. Unfortunately, as is so often the case, the execution is a shambles.

Not what I was suggesting at all. I know exactly how advertising works.

Let's Get Gold was commissioned for one purpose - to cash in on this pre-Olympics period. Simple as that. That is how it would have been pitched to advertisers, as ITV regularly do. And given, as has already been pointed out, the show failed to get a sponsor, it suggests it went down about as well with them as it did with the audience.

It's the same reason NBC has commissioned Stars Earn Stripes.

Don't forget he also has contractual obligations to Al Jazeera

Roof is closed at Wimbledon already, I expect it will be all day now. With such poor weather across most of England and Wales today and tonight could we see big ratings tonight as people are more likely to stay in?

If Dynamo hadn't signed a deal with UKTV then I imagine one of the main broadcasters would try and poach him. Channel 4 I imagine would pay big bucks.

I know - but I thought that was just CL (ie midweek).

But it's a good point in the sense that it's more workload so two nights for the BBC + AJ CL may be more than he wants.

Well they did try, they just failed. And he only committed to 8 episodes with Watch, so he's a free agent again.

Worth noting that he helped Watch get an all-day share of 1.1% for Thursday, almost 4 x Wednesday's (0.3%)

The show got 1.21m total viewers and a 3.1 rating in the Males 16-34 demo, almost as high as the Simpsons on C4 (3.3 in that demo, 1.38m total viewers)

(all figures inc +1 and are from C4 Sales)

Also, ITV Media reports Dynamo's show was a record programme audience for Watch and contributed to its best prime time ever. No. 1 multichannel show last night.

A decent share for EE, back to normal slot shows how many people are unaware of the EPG (regarding the Wed episode), CS & EM not far behind.

Rogey Mosey confirming (as if it were needed) that BBC Breakfast will broadcast live from Olympic Park on Friday 27th July, as it will during the games (as Olympic Breakfast).

Apparently Susanna Reid is stuck in Media City and Sian Williams is anchoring with Chris Hollins

“Noel Edmonds to front BBC1 pilot

Noel Edmonds could return to BBC1’s Saturday night line-up for the first time in 13 years with an entertainment show about celebrity bodyguards.”

They need to get Susanna on board - unless she has some time off due to her, keep Hazel Irvine for Open Golf only
