I'd be surprised if
Waterloo Road didn't also see an autumnal boost on Thursday like most of TV seems to have experienced. In addition, none of those soaps routinely faces a much bigger soap on another main channel. This is not to excuse
WR's ratings which are undoubtedly poor. It should really be hitting 4m in autumn to be respectable in my book, although such considerations as low cost, regional quotas and young demos have kept it afloat at ratings levels which would be cancellation-worthy for many other shows. Even given those factors, it must be nearly on the bubble unless it recovers rapidly this autumn.
