And then two weeks of Wimbledon where Pointless won't be on at all.
I am bored with daytime TV anyways so won't miss it.

One of those odd nights when all the five terrestrial channels had factual offerings.

BBC2 should be most pleased with that 2.8m figure for British Airways. They had been trailing it heavily though, so they must have had high hopes.

ITV's 'Cats' doc was surprisingly low, considering how well the Horizon performed, and given the huge Corrie lead-in. In fact, take out the +1 figure, and it was neck and neck with Crimewatch on 3.6m.

Illegal Immigrant and Proud performed creditably for C5, with 1m, and The Island was steady enough on 2.2m (1.9m with +1) Can't help thinking that C4 were hoping for bigger things with that series, though.

Incidentally, C4's "Secrets of the Juink Food Business" could only muster 800,000 at 8pm -deservedly so, as if we've seen this sort of show at least a million times now. And on Channel 4, too.

It was battered by Springwatch with 2.5m

I think The Island suffrered from facing A Very British Airline. BBC2 will be happy with A Very British Airline because ratings were poor on Mondays at 9pm for weeks. They needed a hit.

Speaking of which, Welcome To Rio could get over 2m tonight. That trailer with a man walking up hundreds of steps carrying a fridge is striking! I think Happy Valley could get a high rating tonight as well.

What the BBC used to call a great summer of sport. Actually I think this could be a fairly quiet summer for Sky with the World Cup by law being shown on BBC One and ITV, Wimbledon on the BBC, The Commonwealth Games being a BBC event as well. I reckon they can't wait for August and the domestic and European football to come back.

Sky Atlantic was within a hair's breadth of beating Channel 5 at 9pm last night according to the DS article. Game of Thrones has been massive for them this year, helped hugely I would imagine by the recent move to only have one ad break during each episode.

What was the Channel 5 +1 figures for Illegal Immigrant and Proud because viewers may decide to watch it after Crimewatch or British Airways or Games Of Throne?

I quite enjoy Only Connect, Best quiz on the box.
Agree with that - never miss it.

I always record Game Of Thrones and the one ad break had made no impression on me at all - had not really noticed.

I think the French Open has been rained off this evening so I want that car is on ITV4 now.

Less than 100,000 otherwise DS would have reported it.

Expecting a much better evening for Five tonight but admittedly a poor start to a big week for them yesterday.

I think there's a possibility that Happy Valley will hit 6m tonight - I'm so sad it's ending tonight I hope Sally Wainwright writes a second series. I think we've been treated to some great drama so far this year - both Happy Valley and Line of Duty have been gripping.

Looking ahead, I think Big Brother will launch in the mid 2s on Thursday. I think that will be a decent enough start, as long as it doesn't fall below 1.5m I think Channel 5 will be happy.

I'll be keen to see how Big Brother launches on Thursday following on from the buzzworthy CBB in January.

It was a canny move albeit one few broadcasters can probably afford to make. It's definitely the reason I've started watching live again though which is rare for me as I probably timeshift 99% of television that I watch.

Don't see any intrest in it this year but people will still tune in even if they don't discuss it.

There were a few nice magazine pieces with Emma at the weekend. Queen of primetime they're calling her now. One even went as far as national treasure.

I can't really get a handle on the appetite level for this one. It's in the hands of the BARB homes come Thursday night. Be nice if it beats last year but I don't have a remotely firm view either way on whether it will or not!!

Next Monday's rating will be intriguing as at 9pm ITV has Road Rage Britain: Caught On Camera and then at 10pm C4 have CCTV: Caught On Camera. Proper innovation there. And BBC1 has a new episode of Traffic Cops - but at 10.35.

Nice boost for Corrie after is returned to its original slot following BGT week. I wonder how the earlier Wednesday episode and extra Thursday episode will do this week? My guess is around 6m on Wednesday and 7m on Thursday. Tricky scheduling could pull the momentum right out of a week of decent ratings (by recent standard).

Me neither. It's very difficult to gauge this year. I think if it's at least up on last year's launch (which in theory shouldn't be too difficult) then we can call it a win.

Anyone got any Games of Thrones official figures for this season, including time shifted? I assume it must be getting close to 2 million?

That's ITV for you. I swear half the problem with Corrie is the way they shunt it here, there and everywhere. And it won't be getting any easier with the World Cup on the horizon. I fear this momentum will be short-lived.

PS. I swear I've posted more on this thread this evening than I have over the last 3 months combined. Sorry! .

A national treasure. Yes, they called Cheryl Cole that a while back as well! To be honest, the only ones who deserve a title like that are Ant and Dec
