they filmed it in June and July 2013. It was announced with great fanfare in march 2013.

it's going to be a great steaming turd and they clearly don't have a clue what on earth to do with it

Still Open All Hours was announced last October, location filmed in November, recorded in December and aired on Boxing day. Car Share is taking longer in production than a Nick Park animation!
Car Share is taking too long to get on air. That always make a you wonder if it is due to production or poor quality.

Good rating for Masterchef, I think it is great complimentary scheduling during the World Cup, a nice alternative for those uninterested in football.

Eastenders is getting rave reviews in the DS soap forum, but I'm not convinced that typical viewers share the enthusiasm of some DS members. It's definitely improved but still seems far from perfect to me.
It's getting good reviews from longtine viewers and critics who had been slating it before. But EastEnders lost the viewer loyalty. It has shown that viewers will still watch with the right storyline, perhaps some of the current ones aren't as compelling compared to a few weeks ago.

Football or cooking? Are those the two camps that the nation falls neatly into?!?!

Absolutely dismal for Enders.
I'm very surprised how badly EE is doing in these clashes. When it was strong in 2010/2011 it used to run Emmerdale extremely close and even beat it despite 30minutes headstart from Emmerdale. It appears its not quite as strong as we might have thought. The damage Kirkwood and Newman have done is going to be forever apparent.
Wow, I know there was a clash but EE was low!
Not sure what you can do about Emmerdale. Its like a thorn lurking in the background waiting for when Eastenders to get a bit of air in it so it can rush on and burst it. And even though ED is effectively sacrificed by ITV its not really losing out at all. Anything beginning with a 4 for a soap is dreadful and it must be pretty soul destroying for the Eastenders hierarchy.

Ideally Eastenders would want the relatively free run that Coronation Street gets to nurse itself through the quieter periods. Not sure what schedule would give it that luxury though but- ITV wont leave it alone as things stand.
It's going to be a long Summer for EastEnders with scheduling and soap clashes hurting it. I would be trying to avoid clashes where possible. No point having them when you come off second best.

more worrying for BB. with the hype of it being so explosive they couldn't repeat in the daytime it appears to have had no effect on the ratings.

did the numbers for BOTS improve?

For BB it says 1.2m (103k on +1), but what was the 1.2m rounded from? (in terms of 1.15m-1.24m)

It is disappointing though.

Average for first week BB14 was 1.32m to be honest, first Tuesday last year got 1.26m (however that was excluding +1).

Or if your like me, who likes both the World Cup and BB, and cooking shows aren't too bad (just to make me hungry and convince me to go to Macdonalds).

Another Emmerdale v EastEnders clash on Friday- and next week EE goes out at 7pm Mon,Tue,Wed & Fri (Emmerdale is on ITV at 7.30pm) so can see its ratings remaining under 6 million.

Digiguide shows a 30 min over lap between two hour long eps of Corrie and Eastenders on Mon June 23rd - with Corrie having the half hour head start.

And Surley ITV would be nuts (but it wouldnt surprise me) to run this schedule on Fri 27th June
7.00 Emmerdale
7.30 Corrie
8.00 Emmerdale
8.30 Corrie

Back in the soap glory days Eastenders was 4 or 5 million viewers ahead of Emmerdale, but soap viewing has become so much reduced and concentrated to levels where the real die hards tend to watch all three main shows-and a head start can make a big difference on a clash. Its true though that the huge pull that Eastenders once had has gone to the extent that missing episodes is no great regret to viewers-the 7 million plus on a recent Monday is evidence that people will tune in-but its very much on their terms. Eastenders really has its back against the wall with scheduling these days. Maybe the BBC should look to change it, but its no easy task.

Solid night for C5 with The Dog Rescuers and CSI increasing to 1.34M and 1.42M respectively. BB's audience share of just under 8% also looks decent enough.

The great shame about this is, having obtained the signature of Peter Kay, the BBC seemingly create the aforesaid turd rather than an eyecatching ratings winner.

Have to say bbc2 looks like my channel during the World Cup with a lot of interesting factual!

Ouch, horrible rating for EE, one of the first of many it will suffer over the next few weeks.

Yes, but given the extremely poor quality of much that has already been made available under Peter Kay's name, like those atrocious DVDs recycling his previous DVDs and those C4 shows that are just made up of out-takes of his previous shows, I question whether this can really be a great deal worse. Unless it was completely technically unbroadcastable, why would they possibly not show it? Peter Kay is really bloody famous. Even if it does stink, you'd get a big audience for show one.

'stEnders is actually in its usual slot next Friday, though it shouldn't do too bad at 7pm as the opposition every night is the ITV news.

So last year BB really recovered well from a shaky start? I seem to remember it being a lot closer to 2m later on in the series. I hope it does the same this year but could go either way. I wonder if these figures would be good enough for Viacom to keep it on as it is so expensive.

Pretty certain I read that Miranda isn't ever coming back because Miranda is busy doing too many other things.
Well forever is a long time. I think Miranda is suffering from the same procrastination/self-doubt that Jennifer Saunders does.

The lady that plays her mother was on Graham Norton's radio show a few weeks ago and she reckons it's unlikely there will be another series any time soon but expects there will be a special at some point. I mean it did end on a cliff-hanger - they can't just keep us hanging forever can they?

Tom Ellis has a new US TV series so it's unlikely we'll see another series but specials are more likely. Miranda also has a supporting role in a new film Spy which has Melissa McCarthy and Jason Statham.

The longer they leave it, the more unrealistic resuming the cliffhanger will look. Remember she'd just been proposed to at the end of the last episode! Perhaps they'd just have to flash forward to the wedding a few years down the line. Nice Christmas wedding special to end it. Of course once she gets married the premise of the show is gone anyway. But surely they have to show her getting married for a satisfactory ending!

The Dog Rescuers is a good programme, and that's a nice rating for it.
