I always said hell would freeze over before The One Show got 6m. Well I was nearly right...........

Nice to see Emmerdale was still comfortably ahead of The One Show though.

Huge ratings all round last night

Whitechappel seems to have debuted well and even minus the snow looks like another 6-7m drama for ITV. On the BBC's scheduling, I can see peoples point, but WDYTYA clearly did a good job of sustaining plenty of viewers in the 9pm slot. I think its BBC Two who deserve the scheduling idiocy award - who thought it was a good idea to launch against a Monday Night thriller?!

Incredible figures for the news, especially the regional on BBC One at 6.30!

Also an honourable mention to The One Show and Watchdog. Record ratings for TOS, boosted no doubt by the fact its live and topical. And Watchdog got massive ratings up against Corrie. Even discarding the snow effect on the overall figure, a share of 22% is very impressive.

Great figures thanks to the snow

Anyone know what 'This Morning' and 'Countdown' got?

BBC1 (11) vs ITV1 (9)

Some crazy ratings last night ! 9 million for BBC Regional News, The One Show over 6m, Five News getting best rating since 2005, neraly 6m for Watchdosm, 32.7m people watching tv at 9pm, soaps and Whitechapel hitting huge ratings, etc. I don't think we'll see anything like this again.


Cheers for that. Looks much better for ITV1 compared to a year ago, when none of their dramas were anywhere near that chart. Monday nights have been solved, now ITV need to fix the other nights.

I don't think Regional News will be given an official rating because it's "regional". Also, Six O'Clock News might be in there with 7.1m due it being different from the Ten O'Clock News (depends if you count it both as the same thing or not) .

Fantastic Ratings all around

With Both BBC1 And ITV1 making cracking figures.

All the soaps. Emmerdale , Coronation Street and EastEnders did great.

and One Show getting 6.6m !

also Whitechapel doing amazing. 8m !

Wow, great night!

ITV have found a nice little setup with dramas at 9pm, they really are a force to be reckoned with, with that.

Is regional news justified when it's regularly pulling a total of 9 million viewers? Definitely.

ITV's regional news got over 5m, but it was of course News at Ten which got its highest audience ever, despite being nearly 3 million behind BBC News at 10

Thanks for the all day report DMN ,

I bet Jeremy Kyle got AWESOME figures, think of all the workers who decided to stay in.
It's nice to know that in snow and bad weather, BBC1 and ITV1 are the safest place to be with their undoubted superiority in programming, especially last night, which had a great mix.

I didn't do an update yesterday, but here are the main ratings from Sunday:

Seven
Seven News 2,008,000
Australian Open 2009 Men's Final Introduction 1,622,000
Australian Open 2009 Men's Final 2,246,000
Australian Open 2009 Men's Final Presentation 911,000

Nine
Nine News Sunday 1,251,000
One Day Cricket - Australia v New Zealand Game 1 Session 1 1,124,000
One Day Cricket - Australia v New Zealand Game 1 Session 2 929,000

Ten
Ten News at Five 896,000
Out of the Blue 266,000
The Biggest Loser Launch 1,156,000
So You Think You Can Dance Australia - Auditions 1 1,306,000

The ratings period has now started again so networks will start getting more competitive and put out better programmes instead of just mundane repeats.

Out of the Blue brought Ten down last night. Does anyone know how it faired over here for its first airing on Fiver?

The Tennis brilliantly for Seven though not as high the Women's final, the cricket held up well against it and would achieved higher ratings on any other day. Ten did okay to hit 1m for TBL and SYTYCD.

UK ratings wise and the snow turned out to be a blessing in disguise with everyone benefitting one way or another. ITV1 did brilliantly with Whitechapel and if it can hold up then a series seems likely, BBC One did very well with WDYTYA on par with what it gets normally, BBC Two did very well with UC and Masterchef but fell short with Moses Jones. Channel 4 did okay with Backstage Billy and DOND and Channel 4 News hitting higher ratings than usual and Five missed the 1m for FG and Edison but will be pleased with the performance of Five News at 5, Neighbours and H&A doing better than normal.

Wil be interesting if the cold weather will help ratings tonight with poor programming from BBC One and ITV1, I think Channel 4 and Five will benefit with slightly increased ratings.

A rare win for Ten. A highly successful premiere of The Devil Wears Prada seemed to clinch it for them. I wonder how well it will do when it airs here on Channel 4 this Sunday?

Nothing really exciting in the 9pm slot tonight!

BBC1 - Traffic Cops
BBC2 - Horizon: Cannabis: The Evil Weed?
ITV1 - Total Emergency
C4 - Boys and Girls Alone
FIVE - CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

I think its possible either C4 or FIVE could win the slot tonight.

Edit - Did not read Jonow's post before I posted this, basically saying the same thing .. sorry .

I'd love to see all the daytime ratings to see how they performed with plenty of people off from work yesterday.

Just wondering.

All of these 3 part dramas from ITV.... have they all been cleared out the cupboard, or have these been scheduled like this "deliberately"?

Yeah...huge contrast to last night's offerings.

Woah-I expected ratings to be up, but not by that much! Probably one of the most bizarre set of ratings I've ever seen on this thread with many programmes breaking records!

Fantastic for all the relevant news bulletins, particuarly the 10pm ones which are also up in share aswell as rating. The snow had a huge effect on ratings yesterday it seems.

The One Show & Watchdog put in great performances up against the soaps, which in turn will probably have just put in their best rated episodes this year (Emmerdale at least and that figure will probably beat the most watched episode of Emmerdale in 2008).

BBC2 also thrived in the 8pm slot averaging over 4m! Panorama, Dispatches & Fifth Gear failed to benefit though.

Record breaking numbers for the 9pm slot-almost 33m watching TV at that time on a Monday is madness really!

Also I see Home & Away has reclaimed its position as most watched multichannel of the day.

Tonight will be very interesting with snowy weather all around still, BUT a very poor offering from many channels. I would suspect viewers will flock to BBC1 with Holby on around 6.5/7m and Traffic Cops on 5.5/6m despite it being a repeat.

what about last nights Corrie? or arent they allowed to be featured more than once?

Not allowed more than once.

I imagine that BBC One will do well with Holby although Traffic Cops will probably do 4-5m, I think CSI will see a slight increase and be second for the fourth week in a row.

There must have been about 95% of all people watching TV, watching BBC1 or ITV1 between 8.15 and 9.30, when did that last happen?

And 5 million for the News at One is unbelievable, it is shame we haven't got any figures for the rest of the morning and afternoon shows.

What do you mean?

Do you mean why are they always put on monday night?

If you mean that, then ITV have done that for years, its nothing new. ITV know Monday night dramas do well so they stick to that formula.

If you mean something else then please explain.

Schedule news, for ITV1 Saturday 14th Feb :

18:45 Dancing On Ice: The Story of Bolero with Torvill & Dean

19:45 Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway

21:00 TBA

Billy Connolly Journey to the Edge of the World fills the Thursday 9pm slot from 19/02/09, once the Piers Morgan series finishes on 19/02/09. It's a 4 parter I think.
