ho ho, there's always room for a bit of humour. On Sky Sports 3, Carlisle vs Derby, a few men in the Border Rambler on Botchergate who couldn't afford a ticket. Actually for all I don't do football much, this is the local team and they did play bravely against a much bigger side.

Bloody hell still no ratings. Have they normally taken this long to come out?

I posted the ratings earlier. They're about as accurate as they get. Interesting about how many people in Scunthorpe watched Death in Paradise.

Is it enough to suggest that there is an inherent bias from the good people of Scunthorpe towards BBC one?

Speaking of regional ratings, 30 years ago Take The High Road rated as highly as Coronation St in Scotland, but in England was largely a daytime show as few people seemed to watch it. Indeed Scotland's most famous soap lasted 20 years, but being ditched by English ITV and STV research finding the audience was dying out and not being replaced spelled the end.

Still not out, just checked. Been a while since we had a delay like this.

Will you be watching Sky Sports 5 for its launch or not?

I think it's fair to say that these 11 elderly people in Scunthorpe form part of Samuel's loyal OAP brigade who only ever watch BBC One. I wonder what will happen when they wake up and realise it's Sunday and turn over to ITV for Harry Secombe and Highway?

Going by the ratings for their new factual so far, the climb may be more uphill than they first thought. Though, after what they've been throwing out recently, I'm not at all surprised. |

Did Soaplife give a starting time for Dallas? I'm intrigued to see where it'll be slotted in, as while overnights were low for the second season, the time shift was quite big.

Indeed, let's hope it is not a more serious issue.

Maybe the whole system has gone 'mammaries up' and they have had to call in the pools panel to estimate the ratings.

Someone on here mentioned A Year in Provence from 1993 if I remember correctly while talking about previous schedules?
Managed to get access to ratings in the stage archive and good god it was a flop and a half! To go from almost 15m to barely making 5m is shocking. Has any other programme before or since dropped so much? Why did it flop? I've read scathing things about it. Sorry if this is way off topic but I thought it was interesting. Code:
Episode 1 (28 February 1993) 14.67m Episode 2 (07 March 1993) 11.97m Episode 3 (14 March 1993) 9.17m Episode 4 (21 March 1993) 7.46m Episode 5 (28 March 1993) 7.38m Episode 6 (04 April 1993) ~6.75m Episode 7 (11 April 1993) ~6.85m Episode 8 (18 April 1993) ~6.36m Episode 9 (25 April 1993) ~6.53m Episode 10 (02 May 1993) ~5.97m Episode 11 (09 May 1993) ~5.91m Episode 12 (16 May 1993) ~6.40m It dropped like a stone because it was, monumentally, dull. Nothing happened from week to week. I suspect many Morse fans thought it might be a crime drama, but it was in fact a story (based admittedly on a best-selling true story book) about nothing more exciting than an Englishman moving to France and drinking wine and eating cheese. For 12 episodes! |

Watched Judge Rinder today and I thought it wasn't too bad, so hopefully this one should stay over 700k at least.
Can I make a request, if later today or tomorrow when we have ratings that The Chase rating at 12:30pm is posted if possible. Thanks. |

The poster in question was making a ratings related point. Perfectly valid, perfectly constructive and exactly the sort of thing this thread is for. You on the other hand regularly serve up posts - one liners usually that add precious little - that are completely off topic, so less of the thread police stuff please. |

Same channel as original broadcast, so if there has been no inaudible audio code added to distinguish the showings, then yes, it's an EastEnders situation.
If Yog could tell us how much Sunday's timeshift added to the original Bake Off and the answer is zero, I think that would mean it's happening again (I will ask him); or if D.M.N. reveals a suspiciously high 7-day timeshift for the repeat when those figures come out. ![]() I've been thinking about this and now I'm wondering why a different voice-over on the credits for two screenings of the same programme doesn't stop the timeshifts being added to the wrong screening. |

I've heard a few positive comments about Judge Rinder. Will appeal to the ITV daytime crowd I reckon.
The Speakmans is an easy act to follow, of course. What a disaster that was. Not at all hard to improve upon. |

BBC drama seemed to tail off after 1991. A Year in Provence was one of many BBC flops at that time, anyone recall Strathblair, tedious drama about a Scottish village, Rides, hopeless drama about a retired woman soldier driving a taxi, Para Handy, drunks on a ship on the Clyde, Trainer, expensive flop about horse racing and the mega expensive flop, Rhodes, which stiffed. Indeed apart from Eastenders and Casualty, the only respectable drama hits the Beeb had in the mid nineties were Pride and Prejudice and To Play The King.
