Great rating for CIN. The best share in many years, obviously helped by no Corrie.

Emmerdale looks to have been dented by an CIN inflated The One Show.

Good ratings for CIN, no Corrie helped out a lot, but its the money that raised which matters most and that was superb - over 30m is incredible.

With all the improvements on the show, being in a Winter slot and little competition, it should be looking at getting at least 1-1.5m higher than last year for the premiere and series average.

4.5 for Pointless, worst episode ever IMHO, but I guess it worked.

Thanks, I hadn't heard that. Anyone know why it couldn't start on the 4th? Could allow Splash to get a headstart, not that it should really be an issue.

The X Factor donating to Philippines typhoon appeal

Even if you don't like the show, or Simon Cowell you can't deny this is a good thing they are doing.

11th is a better launch date. It means that the Voice will get one extra week of trailing during the Christmas and New Year period. Lots of new and returning shows will be launching in that first week of January so trailing The Voice's return across that first week among all these shows will be good.

Also I think starting one week after Splash is a good thing. People will watch the first episode of Splash and be disappointed a little bit. It's a lot of rubbish. When the Voice launches the week after, it will damage Splash's ratings and dent it by a million or two. I think the anticipation for the Voice will be greater by launching it the week after Splash. People will be saying "oh splash is a load of rubbish once again, i wish there was something else on" and then they'll see the Voice is launching the following week and loads will tune in for that. Another very clever scheduling decision by BBC.

There is always the possibility that if they get some 'OK' celebs that Splash holds up well as its something different to another singing show. But i imagine it will not hold well against TVUK.?

This is Kevin O'Sullivan's thoughts about it:

Remember, if you don't vote in The X Factor tonight children in The Philippines will die. Using a natural disaster to plug a TV show. Nice... It's an attempt to boost the rubbish ratings and to get more people to vote. Very little to do with the Philippines...I guess the way Cowell sees the tragedy of The Philippines is it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. An opportunity seized...Don't fall for this nasty little ploy.

Why not full cost of the votes, why just 'minimum'? They've just signed a deal with ITV for £150million. I wonder how many of the donations from XF votes will be the minimum required and nothing more.

Btw Samuel didn't votes from Strictly used to go to Children in Need but that was quitely dropped? Just to be fair...

Didn't seem to stop 6m+ tuning in every Saturday night to watch it. It it was that awful viewers would switch off, just like Breathless/Truckers did.

Anyway weren't people saying that about The Voice

Oh come on Splash was/is awful, even by the low standards of TV nowadays. I bet ITV laughed their heads off when it got not awful ratings - did anyone working on it really expect a series 2?

Ah the journalist you only like when he's slating ITV. Why would donating to The Philappines boost X Factor?

Splash was fun as it was supposed to be so awful it was quite good. I wouldn't mind seeing it do OK against a tedious singing contest, 4 million would be nice.
Also ITV have wisely not scheduled TMO against SCD this year, which was really harming this show. On its own TMO is good for 5 million and also a show I quite enjoy.
There, said it, 2 ITV shows I think are quite good.

Would you rather they didn't donate? There are thousands who vote and buy the songs every week regardless so this is a great opportunity to raise a lot of money for an important cause. There are things more important than TV ratings, you know.
