So we'll have GBBO, New Tricks and Doctor Who all running alongside each other. They've all proved to be ratings beasts but does anyone have an opinion on who will come out on top? 10 million for the GBBO finale seems feasible and the first series of a new Doctor always rates highly (and if the rumours are true series 8 is shaping up to be one of the best yet) but then NT has always had a loyal audience.

Nope, just double up on Thursday night.

I'd expect CS to pop up at 8pm before the ten weeks have passed!
I'm wondering if "The Great British Bake Off" would probably have still been 7 million in January too. Its probably now reached a maximum audience actually. It couldn't have done better, and in August where figures have been unspectacular. Look at what followed it at 9pm. This show is a modern day monster.
The Great British Bake Off's official ratings:
We should be looking at around ~8.2m officially for last night's launch.
EDIT - Now includes HD for Series 3, thanks Lewie.

You beat me to it DMN! I was going to do a similar chart
You've forgotten to include the HD ratings for series 3. It was simulcast on BBCHD. That's if you are including HD.

Ssssh, you didn't see that....
I've fixed it
A question for you all. When was the last time BBC One achieved seven million viewers in the Wednesday, 20:00 slot - excluding soaps and football?
The answer is in the spoiler...

Have you any non Christmas figures of 7 million in that slot?
Suddenly BBC one is beginning to look stronger again. I still think "EastEnders" is under performing for the channel. It should be able to get "The Great British Bake Off" types of overnights. The dramatic September may reconnect it to the audience.

I knew it was years ago! I knew it! It's mostly been 3/4/5m with factual programming.
You must mean soap and sport though DMN because The Olympics was doing well in 2012 I think at that time.

It looks like the predicted bad weather that DMN alerted us too originally is going to hit on Sunday. Saturday looks like nice weather which will work against Tumble. But we'll see.

EE is still suffering from clashes. The earliest it will begin to rise is next week, but more realistically things should rise from September. I think they should've put EE on Wednesday as GBBO lead out personally, followed by that new Friday night comedy (Boomers?). Operation Wild hasn't exactly taken advantage of the lead-out.

Why doesn't the Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony of all of two weeks ago count, what have I missed
EDIT: Also, according to this article, the 200m semi-finals at London 2012 averaged 10.6m http://www.theguardian.com/media/201...00m-semi-final

Yep I would agree that would be a great idea. Operation Wild could have transferred to Friday at 8pm. That would be a post watershed "EastEnders" too....

Busy busy busy for that lot at the moment! You might even, if you were really cynical, add that Mark Gattis turned up to do a reading during Westminster Abbey's commemorations on Monday night! I'd worried it'd suffer from not getting anything like the promo the 50th episode got but they've really stepped it up over the last few weeks.

It's still shocking that BBC1 hasn't managed 7m at that time outside of soap and sport. When was the last time EastEnders got 7m on a Wednesday at 8pm?

Apologies for answering a question directed elsewhere and I don't know if it's managed it since but it definetly did over 7m on a Wednesday twice in a week only months ago, on Christmas and then New Year's Day (although the former only ended in the 8pm hour, it started earlier)
BBC3 currently showing Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom, a late change to the schedule that has caught out the Sky EPG (although the Radio Times website is showing the change). and so Live Pause is not available.,
Eastenders and Emmerdale better hope it doesn't get 1m viewers like Lost Ark last night cos that's a substantial chunk of the audience, although as it's a late change I wouldn't expect it to do so well.
