Heres the truth about ratings instead of "Mirror" spinning itself!
Ratings were also excellent for UK. "Doctor Who finished the year with its highest-rated season ever on BBC America. Plus, the annual Doctor Who Christmas special clocked 2.31 million viewers and was the No. 1 nonsports telecast in all of cable in its time period among adults 25-54 in Live+3. BBC America LogoThe Christmas special delivered 1.3 million adults 25-54 in Live+3 and totaled 2.62 million total viewers in Live+3 combining the 9 PM premiere with 11:45 PM and 2:30 AM replays. The 12th Doctor’s first Christmas special more than doubled the viewership of the 11th Doctor’s first Christmas special, A Christmas Carol, in 2010. BBC America was the No. 1 network on Twitter and Tumblr and Doctor Who: Last Christmas was the No. 1 nonsports primetime show on both platforms in all of television on December 25. Doctor Who is pacing as one of Twitter’s 10 most-tweeted original dramas in all of cable for 2014. http://deadline.com/2015/01/doctor-w...ca-1201341383/ |

It also performed well in Canada, incidentally. Quote:
Season 8 of DOCTOR WHO is the Most-Watched Series in Space History and Saturday Night’s Most-Watched Series Not too shabby in Australia, from what I recall, either. I'm intrigued how the show performs in other locations. Certain stops on the World Tour, for example.
Just days shy of the Season 8 finale of DOCTOR WHO, Space confirms its #1 series of all time has hit epic proportions this season. Now averaging 773,000 viewers for Peter Capaldi’s debut season as the Twelfth Time Lord, Season 8 of DOCTOR WHO is the most-watched season of the program to date, up nearly 25% compared to Season 7 and ranking as the #1 TV series on Canadian specialty television. In fact, DOCTOR WHO is the most-watched television program on Saturday nights in Canada during its 9 p.m. ET timeslot among total viewers and all key demos. |

So why do the "glad rags" have it in for the show then?
Or is it just a case of trying to sensationalise to sell newspapers that arent selling? |

The writer of the article is not a fan of Moffat Who. Probably retweeted the NTA Capaldi snub with glee.

When Doctor Who is left out in the wilderness to die without dignity on an axed channel with a 10.35pm repeat on BBC One and a combined overnight of 1.76m...
...there probably won't be a mention ![]() (Goodbye Waterloo Road, I used to love you, really) |

Very consistent. (Although the highest any of the 8 series rated was Series 4, with 8 million, I believe.) Said before on here, by Seasons 6 and 7 of C20 Who, the figures were down to about 5-6 million, so C21 Who has kept things up even better in comparison. And I can't be in denial, that's a river in Egypt.
Sorry. Blame Fry and Laurie... ![]() Edit: You didn't mention Series averages did you. Whoops. |
