Er, in 1990 I think ITV were suposed to have England's game against Belgium exclusively but the Beeb decided they wanted to show it as well, and in the end both channels simulcast virtually everything in that tournament and the schedules were ridiculous (I always remember The Les Dennis Laughter Show getting flung out about 5pm). As you see, in 2002 they simulcast all the knockout games (and also Spain vs Ireland) but by 2004 ITV decided not to bother and it hasn't happened since.
As we've mentioned before, in Des Lynam's book he said in 1998 the Beeb said to ITV they wanted to show all the England games and they didn't care if they did as well, but ITV took issue with that and they didn't. I had a vague memory, but I really wasn't sure. Quote:

Tonight I think the USA match will rate higher in casual viewers then the Iran match on the BBC.

Fantastic ratings for the BBC World Cup matches yesterday. 7.7million for France v Honduras is very high considering Honduras is a minnow! I expected about 6-6.5million. And a very strong share for the Argentina game too, late into the night.
Underwhelming rating for Itv, a 25pct share is the lowest yet and about 9share points below BBC1's 5pm game the day before involving two similarly lowly ranked football teams. I suppose the Itv weekly reach crisis is once again visible with that rating. |

The difference was that EastEnders was awful last year and ratings were down. If it was strong then it would have benefited a bit more.
Stories seem to be perking up a bit this week, though.

Yes, although the last couple of weeks haven't been quite as strong as the rest of 2014, with focus on some of the weaker characters, and the contrived storyline to improve representation of disabilities.
Stories seem to be perking up a bit this week, though. ![]() Just a shame for the show that when an interesting/important episode comes along it comes up against World Cup scheduling. |

Yes, they saw sense and put the day and time on it yesterday. They ran the trail without any days or times for two days.

Last year even the 'big' stories weren't interesting and the pace of it all was slower than continental drift. Lately it hasn't been as strong as post Lucy Beale murder but is still decent.
Just a shame for the show that when an interesting/important episode comes along it comes up against World Cup scheduling. For the Games and Wimbledon it might be worth the BBC choosing a schedule and sticking to it, whether that means keeping the Games and Wimbledon on BBC One or Two whatever happens instead of swinging them between the channels. The last thing EastEnders needs is last minute scheduling changes. |

Exactly they should have put the time and day from the start of the trailers. I mean it's like they just realised they best informe us viewes there's a change of time for EE. It's just silly it took them so long to realise.

On one hand, the current Germany vs Portugal scoreline might limit the peak, but given the teams involved it may make little difference akin to Spain vs Netherlands.

EE would probably have rated better in its usual 8pm slot tonight and Friday but on BBC2 than shunted forward to 7 pm on bbc1. It did ok there during the Olympics didn't it, c5m?

Surprised our Social Media Commentator hasn't been along this evening. Might be because Adrian Chiles was trending on Twitter for the right reasons for once...most seemed to agree with him about Muller's role in the red card. |

24 Hours In A&E renewed for a further 30 episodes. Potential overkill by Channel 4.

I refuse to believe anything positive is being said about Adrian Chiles.

The England v Italy match caught many - but not all - out but would you do better predicting the Uruguay v England match? How will Coronation Street and EastEnders fair in new look schedules? Will Friday Night Dinner return to a strong figure?
Remember to make your predictions for week twelve of the DS Ratings Prediction Game. The schedule can be found HERE - just hit Quote, delete the quote marks and get predicting. Thank you in advance to everyone who takes part.

A little odd to have that game on primetime, but I guess they don't always think about when certain games are shown in different countries. Iran/Nigeria would have been better suited like Japan/Ivory Coast in a very late slot.

It was a series low but only by about 100K or so I think.

am quite suprised by level of ratings so far for the football.
Looks like we're set for a massive peak when England beat Germany on penalties in the first semi-final, stick 9:35am on July 9th in the diaries folks!!
