so Robbie's problem are the words used by a member of parliament, isn't it a fact MP's use the most positive figures when making their points

Goodbye Hunted.

BBC1's Hunted laid to rest - Melissa George spy drama, which has faced plummeting audiences, will not be recommissioned for second series

I see the Royal Bodyguard is out on DVD/Blu Ray. Could this be the lowest-selling DVD of all time ?

Im A Celebrity rated very high with the +1 audience, is that best ever rating for Itv1+1?

Any programme that changes its title twice was bound to be suspect!!

Nemesis > Morton > Hunted.

I don't think it is. I believe other shows have also got around 700k on +1.

Contradicts this:

but that does say 'potential' second series and talks were in the early stages.

Indeed it did. I wonder what that million were watching instead of IAC in the 9pm hour.

733k according to DS, so yeah I imagine ITV would round that up to a million . Kidding, of course, excellent figure for the repeat.

What is a reach figure? Feel a bit dumb.

Is it the total amount of people a show reaches for some amount of time across an episode, or a season?

Mike Teevee doesn't post the +1 ratings. He posts the ITV1 ratings and then the ITV1 HD ratings separately. So last night's IAC averaged 8.07m in the 9pm hour with a further 733k on +1 (so 8.8m in total).

Good solid drama is what the BBC seem to specialize in. I think it's a grower. Some things hit the ground running others flop some like this remain steady. I think they have fond another very good returnable drama their.

Hunted on the other hand is a spectacular flop very rare for a BBC one drama to do that.

How do we think The Last Tango In Halifax will do next week. Looks like a strong cast. It's apparently a comedy drama. The ghost story thing on Sunday looks good but it has tough opposition. Both should launch with 5m but I doubt they will.

imagine 5million watch the first half hour of a show, then they all switch over, but another completely different 7million tune into the second half hour. The average would be 6m, but the reach would be 12m...

I've noticed you refuse to capitalise ITV and refer to it everywhere as Itv, but have no problem with the concept of BBC being uppercase. Are you trying to make some sort of statement or do you genuinely just not realise it's an acronym not a word?

Yep.

In other news, it's probably for the best the Bbc decommissioned Hunted, and that ITV axed Monroe.

where as the BBC logo

link

Mike Teevee

well it looks you've both got valid points

the logo is in lower case
but the company is an acronym, therefore should be capitalized
