Well, Splash just finished and no one said "See you again next year." |

The Splash final should be looking to get close to 4m tonight. It has been trailed a lot throughout the week, will have its best lead-in since launch and in the last 20mins it wont be facing the Voice. Expect the Voice to be down from the last couple of weeks - it will rate around 7.5million which will be a strong result all things considered.
Why would people tune into Splash! for the last 20 minutes if they haven't followed the main event? It deserves to get 4m, in my opinion, as I thought it was entertaining tonight but I highly doubt it will manage it. I hope ITV give it another go as at least it's something different from singing but considering the figures I highly doubt they will. |

Yes the football on before it, on ITV will affect The Voice on after. Pull the other one.

Was very little chance of Splash returning next year anyway, with Tom's diving ready for the Olympics 2016. I suspect if it did well again say over 5million it would return, but with it having dropped below 3million is it very unlikely to return.

The Voice started just as the football finished so benefited from post match analysis and a Pointless lead in which will hardly be weak. Plus Splash! dived below 3m last week. Considering these factors I see no reason why it won't hit 8m; indeed it ought to.

For its all faults and slagging off, its actually better than any of the recent BBC LE programmes they have tried, by which BBC1 have been inspired to create Lets Get Ready To Tumble. |

Thursday's match is Swansea v Napoli. I'd have put money on that being on ITV4 (because it's Swansea City). The fact that it's on ITV(1) suggests to me that ITV will be putting Europa League games on primetime ITV(1) for as long as there are English clubs left in the competition. There are two of them - Tottenham and Swansea. Tottenham's game is on ITV4 this week because it's a 6pm our-time kick off.

But I think sometimes, the reason why Sherlock and Jonathan Creek rate so well is because they aren't on very often and their episode runs are very short. It makes each programme feel like 'special event' viewing.

The audience for the last 3-parter declined slowly but steadily over the mini-run.

Could we see Channel 4 getting a similar boost due to Paralympics?

Perhaps they should develop some factual/entertainment programme along the lines of Top Gear, but with different vehicles. A bit like Countryfile at a step-back in time type of thing. Looking at past vehicles from buses to cars, to the present day.

Is that all that matters? Splash is complete and utter drivel, just because it happens to be better than 'Don't Scare The Hare' which is usually thought of as the worst programme in the history of all television doesn't mean it should win awards.

True but it won't be a pound-for-pound swap: ITV will have to allow for the reduced ad income from lucrative young males (in particular) and adjust their budgets for the slots accordingly. This is assuming that they do not devise content which is equally high-rating among young males to take the football's place, which is a safe assumption.
At a rough guess though ITV were looking to put around £200m towards Champions League coverage, so even halving that gives them £100m to spend over three years, so £33m a week. That should be enough I'd have thought to add a 9pm drama to the Tuesday night schedule for a good chunk of the year, so hopefully they'll spend it wisely and losing the Champions League will be seen as an opportunity rather than a problem.

Anyway I was talking about The Muppets programme, Reflex, Britain's Brightest, Secret Service, etc. in regards to recent BBC LE programmes |

I dont call 7m+ rating Itv programmes 'complete and utter drivel' like what Last Request said though. I wont deny Ive criticised XF which does get 7m+ but havent called it utter drivel.
You used words along those lines, and still criticized programmes on ITV that do get good ratings. The Voice is not utter drivel, but is the 2nd best singing show. |

Yes, statistically XF 2013 may be rating about 0.3m better than Voice 2014 or something very small like that. But the Voice's momentum is good, nicely up from last year, where as XF continued its downward decline [down from a 2012 series which was a terrible rating one by its own standards]. The Voice's success is also good news for the BBC because it saturates the singing show market even more and will hopefully mean some viewers are bored of the genre by the time XF returns, which will result in XF continuing to lose viewers and then Rising Star launching underwhelmingly. |
