Oh very good

Agreed!!

Absolutely. I had Monday's episodes being crushed a wee bit by BBC1's comedy block at the start of the run. Just hasn't happened. Terrific rating for last night.

Channel 4 was absolutely miles behind on 1.56m (5.8%). And even with Bake Off for the first half an hour BBC2 averaged an identical 2.56m (9.5%) in the 9pm hour.

Bake Off 3.82m - knocks Miranda to 6.39m and Lewis to 5.9m

Nice one BSI. You absolute friggin muppets!

MBB also down, at 7.00m

I watched first half then turned over for MBB. One might assume that the Rylan story yesterday may have helped a little, or maybe people just tuned in - like me - because they happen to like it!

UK TV Ratings ‏@TVRatingsUK
The Chase yesterday hit a new weekday high with 4.06m excl +1. Pointless averaged 3.77m.

7m for Mrs Brown's Boys.

Lewis up to 6.28m with +1. The soaps were (inc +1 in brackets):

Emmerdale: 7.74m (7.84m)
Corrie 1: 10.09m (10.21m)
EastEnders: 8.77m
Corrie 2: 10.34m (10.56m)

At 5pm:

Pointless: 3.77m
The Chase: 4.06m (4.33m)

All time high at 5pm for The Chase. It peaked at 5.12m (inc +1) at 17:50.

7.92m for the BBC Regional News.

Corrie failed to hit the predicted 10m for either episode, let alone 11m. Some way short - unadulterated figures awaited....

5.7m for The One Show!

BBC Regional News 7.92m

Good stuff for The Chase & Corrie.
Bad decisions at the BBC for Miranda & TGBB

No it didn't.

Hang on if the +1 are in brackets which is what you wanted then Corrie is over 10m or are you deliberately choosing to ignore your own rules.

Anything for Ch4/E4??

I notice the strange behaviour of E4 and Pick TV over Charmed is continuing first pick showed Seasons 1-3 with E4 showing season 4 (onwards) at the same time, now with S3 finished Pick as of next monday is skipping to S8 while E4 is stil showing S4, confusing and complicated isn't the word.

2.13m live, 423k (new record) on +1.

Not really Pick has the rights to 1-3, 8 and E4 the rights to 4-7

Corrie did hit 10m when you look at the tape checked figures. ITV use a different ratings provider which looks at the programme's timeslot rather than actual show duration. Great ratings for Corrie and 4m for The Chase. Also pleased to see Father Brown do so well and get over 2m again.

It seems the non-story about Rylan's secret exits are helping CBB this year. Well done to Channel 5's rivals for giving them a helping hand!

That's brilliant for ITV. Not the highest rating since Home And Away. That falls to the first episode of the first relaunch of Crossroads back in 2001 that got 5.51m.....

Embarrassing Fat Bodies: 1.56m (5.8%)
What Happens in Kavos: 1.49m (8.2%)

Revenge: 566k (2.1%)
My Mad Fat Diary: 397k (2.1%)

In regards to tape-checked ratings, surely by now they should do it in 1minute slots instead of 5minutes or 15minutes.....

Cheers

Impressive for My Mad Fat Diary considering the only adverts I saw for that rush repeat was the usual "what's on tonight on E4" trailers.

Heh. Seems most people like me see it for what it is, an entertainment show. Who knew?! That +1 audience must be Channel 5's highest ever.


Wasn't it a new episode last night? DigiGuide says it was.

what's the problem they didn't drop it for winterwatch last week either which was also 8.30-9.30.

Really? It's been plugged too death, especially for last weeks opener...
