Pretty extraordinary story in tomorrow's Telegraph that BT are in talks with ITV that could see ITV show some of BT's Premier League matches next season, in addition to producing all of BT's coverage.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/n...gue-games.html ITV have denied talking with BT. |

Ouch for Toast of London, the Channel 4 funny fortnight is a real mixed bag especially the pilots for new comedies.
Quote:
The trouble with Channel 4's Funny Fortnight is that they pack so much into it, it's difficult for them to promote all their offerings. There's a comedy pilot from the writers of Outnumbered tomorrow night at 10.35, Just Around The Corner. I've just about remembered to set my Sky Plus for it. It remains to be seen whether I remember to watch it.

So Beaver Falls up 100k or so on it's premiere a fortnight ago but at around the 400k mark although that was enough to get it a second series I'm not sure it's enough to get it a third

Am pretty sure Premier League agreements would include agreements from BT on how it would be shown.
This wouldn't be done after their signed. We'd already know if ITV were getting some rights with agreement on how their shown (advertising BT or something). Mind you - that might not stop some sort of simulcast. |

AU: X Factor dominates, TEN flops again and again
Link: http://twitter.com/mediaweekAUS Quote:
Tue TV: Seven #1 27.4% XFactorAU 1.52m7News 1.37m TT 1.18m W&L 1.16m/1.06m 9News 1.13m ACA 1.08m BB 1.01m H&A 1m Anger 693k Survive 506k
- X Factor once again dominates with 1.52m. That is a really good retention from their premiere last night. Winners and Losers also fared decently afterwards and was it a double episode last night? - TEN managed to secure another flop, this time with I Will Survive. While I am not surprised about the failures of Don't Tel l The Bride and Everybody Dance Now, I am disappointed about this one not doing well. - Big Brother declines down to 1.01m. Should this be a worrying time for Nine? It is now reaching to the numbers that led to their first cancellation, which was their eighth season a few years ago. - Everybody Dance Now has officially been cancelled by Ten (http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2012/08/...dance-now.html). Their Super Sunday lineup now consists of repeats of The Simpsons, Modern Family, Graham Norton and NCIS. With the US shows making a return in a month time, should Ten fast-track until November to save them from what is already their disaster year? - Also, this is really embarrassing for both EDN and Ten. EDN has been axed immediately, with no one being declared as winner(s). Although there has been cases where a reality series has been cancelled in a sudden, not making it until the show's contractual end. In Spain, their most recent season of Operacion Triunfo (Star Academy) has ended prematurely (leading to the show's eventual cancellation) only after a month on air, due to very underperforming ratings. They had an abrupt finale, where there was an elimination and a winner was decided from the 12 remaining students, the same night. France had it worse last year with Carre Viiip. It is pretty much like Big Brother "fans vs faves" and they were cancelled only after two weeks, due to very low numbers. The remaining housemates were all ejected out of the house after the news broke out. Only one actual eviction show happened. Doubtful that will happen to Nine, even if BB declines further. |

What is the highest percentage share of any broadcast in the UK? I recall a World Cup match got around a 90% share at its peak.

Might explain what GeorgeS has been up to lately. Perhaps he's absented himself because he can't contain his excitement over snatching some live Premier league action and he knows he wouldn't be able to keep mum.

Isnt "I Will Survive" a Andrew Lloyd Webber type show, to find a Drag Queen, to be in Priscilla Queen of the Desert? Coming soon to ITV 1? Priscilla Queen of the Lake District?

The remaining housemates were all ejected out of the house after the news broke out. Only one actual eviction show happened. Doubtful that will happen to Nine, even if BB declines further. I think if Big Brother remains above 900,000 on Tuesdays-Thursdays and can reach upwards of 1.1m on Sundays and Mondays then it will have done respectable, but the fact its numbers keep declining from the previous week is not positive for them I expected X Factor to do well, but never this well, after the success of the Voice and the decline of AGT and DWTS I thought it would struggle this year. However rather than focus on the rubbish acts they've concentrated solely on the good ones, maybe 5mins on Monday and Tuesday devoted to not so good acts. Will be interesting to see what Seven decides next year, with the media here saying Mel B is likely to be going to the UK version next year (don't know how true this is), perhaps AGT maybe cancelled and Dannii slide across to the X Factor. There is no way thatDannii didn't join the UK show because of Simon, otherwise she would have left AGT as well, I think there is more truth in her wanting to stay in Australia. Yes Winners and Losers does appear to have been a double episode last night, I turned off on what I thought was the last ad break of Part 1 because I couldn't be bothered watching 5 minutes of adverts for a 2 minute section of drama, but clearly I was wrong to do that. Would of been nice for Seven to have promoted the fact it was a double epsiode. Also talking of fast tracking American shows Sevn are airing GCB twice weekly as of next week, considering it only has 10 episodes it will only be on air for another 5 weeks... is it possible Seven are going to fast track Revenge and want mondays clear? They did have Revenge in their Spring promos but that doesn't always mean anything with Seven or Nine. Quote:

/sigh I didn't even know they were piloting new comedies. No wonder some shows are getting drowned out.
Having Ian Brady as a lead in during 'Funny Fortnight' can't have helped either. Quote:
The new one off drama on BBC 2 Sunday at 9 pm directed by Birger Larsen of Forbrydelsen (The Killing - original Danish edition) gets a rave review and looks very interesting. First UK production with fascinating new twist to presentation style. But against an ITV drama and a new George Gently on BBC 1and the also intriguing new Sky 1 series starring John Hannah and Suranne Jones (A Touch of Cloth - an Airplane/Naked Gun style take on UK cop dramas) the 9 pm slot is insanely overstocked this Sunday. Something is going to get criminally undeserved ratings it would seem. Maybe more than one something.
Quote:
Doctor Who's final numbers have remained impressive and its total reach figures even more so but its overnights haven't exactly been setting the world alight lately. If anything if its going against the complete dud that is Red or Black the pressure is going to be on Doctor Who to hit it out of the park.
Hopefully a consistent 7PM start time will help achieve that. This could be something of a blessing in disguise for ITV though. Another series of 'Doctor Who ratings crisis' stories like those we saw last year will only distract from Red or Black. Quote:

Wednesday is a good day for it, however:
Mrs Biggs isn't going to be a huge rating but Ch5 might be surprised at a drama in there. All Star Mr & Mrs is odd, that should be on Saturday before X Factor; but then Doctor Who might kill it anyway - best use R/B as a sacrificial lamb to the Daleks and Weeping Angels I suppose. All its good for.

. Also, like you said, Seven didn't expect TXF to perform this huge. My prediction is that Seven will bump Up All Night as TXF lead-out show after GCB completes their double episodes run. Since Up All Night got renewed in the US, Seven would want to give the sitcom some limelight, at least.

Yes but the BBC would have never surrounded it with Tripe like Big Brother, and there I was thinking that Channel 5 wanted big ratings for Dallas, such a pity.

I rather liked Toast, but had a nagging feeling I'd be the only one. That really is a terrible rating. I don't think I've seen a rating of just 300k before at 10pm on C4, not for something seemingly so mainstream.

On Twitter people are saying the Dallas press launch was great apart from Richard Desmond who was hijacking the event.
But to be fair to Desmond, he is making sure theres going to be lots of cross promotion in the Daily Star and Express. So this is going to be big for Channel5. |
