Certainly a stronger performance for XF. Sunday at 8.00 is arguably the prime slot of the week and Im guessing XF peaked high towards the end. It probably has that "last treat before school" feel to it and ITV will be hoping it grows and grows into more of a family routine than last year. Certainly Saturday looks the weaker night and it will take a good and newsworthy cast list to make substantially more viewers tune into the elongated early lives. ITV will no doubt be throwing a lot into the next few weeks before the two Strictly shows return to bolster the weekend for BBC1.
Stronger for Coronation Street as more people realised it was on probably, but BBC1 still very solid in the face of it all. We can see the value of AR and Countryfile again and What Remains did decently against traditionally safe 2 hour drama on ITV.
The F1 figures look a bit depressed to me though might be wrong. From my point of view the Vettel bandwagon appears a bit too strong for the sports good at the moment.
