Splash won the night as expected. My 5.5m prediction was bang on.
Brightest did better than expected and grew substantially once viewing patterns settled back to normal after the football skewed things ITV's way. I gave up on that after 15 minutes but if the bit of the show around 8pm was better, then there is hope for next week.
Given the mauling Splash has got itself, clearly one of the worst formats in years and something even Alan Partridge wouldn't have pitched, I suspect that is going to be the show that grabs the headlines next Sunday morning - for the wrong reasons.
Antics and Hammond could actually go up, bizarrely, with no football.
