If only the people who actually watched the programmes commentd here, it would be a Lot quiter. Of course you have commented on many programmes before they were broadcast so I'm guessing you are guilty of the same.

Lewis was facing 7m+ every week on BBC1, Broadchurch has faced 5m and 4.3m on BBC1 in the two weeks so far. The crime drama vs crime drama is obviously going to dent both shows involved but i'm not not convinced Broadchurch is being dented significantly more than if it were facing 7m+ of a different genre. It's swings and roundabouts.

And if your going to lump +1 into comparisons you have to accept that any clashes are lessened as people can watch both with no clash.

Quite disappointing for a barnstorming tie between Man U and Chelsea. And bearing in mind that 8.4m peak was boosted by folk tuning in out of habit for DOI.

Well, 5.8m overnight viewers. Is that "pulling them in" given the publicity and hype?

What was the opener for Broadchurch - 6.7m, or did that include repeat? I lose track....

Either way it dropped a fair bit. 6 weeks to go...

Broadchurch seems to be doing well given the competition it has faced, both of which had launched strongly just the night before. It'll be interesting to see how it does against Motorway Cops next Monday, it might see a boost from that. Although I suspect it might also bring down the +1 number quite a bit as well.

Broadchurch got 6.1m without +1 or 6.8m with it last week. This week it was 5.8m/6.4m. So a drop of 0.3/0.4m. Considering Shetland managed to lose 1.4m from episode 1 to episode 2 I don't think we can quibble about Broadchurch.

I think Broadchurch will be renewed although I think they'll have to spinoff the two characters,

Both did well there i'd say, BBC would be happy if it got 5.84m for every ep since I seem to recall it spent the rest of the week gently rising.

Broadchurch up by more than 2m, ITV will be very happy with that.

Quite a timeshift for Broadchurch, over 2m. Just goes to show it's not the end of the world if it ends with up an overnight of 6m.

On the one hand it isn't great for so mamy people to be timeshifting instead of watching live. On the other hand, the fact that 2.3m bothered to record it and watch at a later late when it was against another drama bodes well for next week when it only faces Motorway Cops. Some of those timeshifters should watch live next week so the overnight might improve.

9.1m is a cracking audience either way though.

It is nice that ITV have finally invested in quality drama. The results speak for themselves. I don't watch Broadchurch as I don't like the subject matter. For the same reasons I didn't watch Mayday. But, if peoples comments are anything to go by, it is clear that ITV is slowly, but surely, becoming competitive again.

I wonder what it will be up against on Easter Monday?

Adverts still have impact at x30, but the advertisers' rates aren't calculated on consolidated.

So bad news for the broadcaster, but good for the advertisers.

Also the sponsor's bumper is a useful stop point for timeshifters.

Wow 9m, excellent rating

People obviously recording it as it was up against a drama which ran all week, you could hardly record Mayday and catch up in time. Broadchurch should be up next week.

does anyone have the breakdown for last night's broadchurch?

In a rare feat for US broadcast television, The Bachelor posted a 3.3 for its SEVENTEENTH season finale and a 3.8 for its "After The Final Rose" special, up 0.4 and 0.5 from last year respectively.

Across the season, The Bachelor averaged a 2.8 among adults 18-49, putting it on a par with the second tier of US reality series like X Factor (2.9), Survivor (2.8) and America's Got Talent (2.8).

The Following was down two tenths from last week to a 2.6 rating. But that's actually great news for FOX because last week it had a Bones lead-in, this week it was a repeat, so it seems like the show is strong on its own.

Amazing official figure for Broadchurch and extremely well deserved too. I don't get the whole BBC v ITV debate at all, and why ITV is criticised if they do well with a show like this. It'll only encourage the BBC to become more competitive and creative if ITV becomes stronger, so it's a win win for both channels and they'll both keep showing quality stuff and not become complacent. The whole battle and bias is completely alien to me. Why would you want one channel doing crap, and the other channel doing really well? Credit where it's due - ITV has done well with this show so far and the signs are looking very good for the next six weeks.

Good to see a new ITV hit. It's about time. Really healthy time shift for mayday as well. first episode got 7m.

Shetland held up okay against ITV. Masterchef starts tonight at 9pm. Solid ratings I expect. I hope it hit's 5m to put it in good stead for the slot changes next week. Running it at 8pm from next week is a good move. It seems not quite right at 9pm.

BBC One have Prisoners wives on Thursday for 4 weeks and then next week it has the syndicate on Tuesdays for 6 weeks. Monday will be a weak day for them with Motorway cops and Friday is weak until comedy returns. Sunday should be good a usual and it has big shows on Saturday. So not bad.

Broadchurch is a big result for Kudos as well, they've got a lot of stick recently, but they're clearly capable of producing big hits in the genre even if they have had a few flops.
