Our old friend from last week Celebrity Squares continues to look doomed, going backwards slightly in week two to score a pitiful 2.11m.
Countryfile once again had three times as many viewers. |

Interesting that they have both gone up.

Strong ratings there. An excellent finale bounce for Poldark and impressive for Vera to grow against that. 5 million is a solid audience especially with such a rancid lead-in.

Poldark very well received by the Daily Express today although still cant quite resist pointing out that the seventies version got twice the number of viewers. Poldark though eminently more watchable than The Village, and is returning next year (there is seemingly talk it could run to five series based on the number of novels-not sure whether it will have the legs for that). The BBC has War and Peace too-wonder when that will be shown.

BBC One's Poldark ravishes 5.9m with series 1 finale on Sunday
Poldark wrapped up its first series with strong ratings on Sunday (April 26), according to overnight figures. Aidan Turner's period drama brought in 5.87m at 9pm on BBC One, adding more than 400,000 viewers from last week. Earlier in the evening, Countryfile continued to top the ratings with 6.39m (34.5%) at 7pm, while Antiques Roadshow interested 5.78m (26.3%) at 8pm. On BBC Two, coverage of World Championship Snooker was seen by 940k (5.0%) at 7pm, before Coast Australia averaged 1.02m (4.6%) at 8.15pm, and Hunters of the South continued with 1.14m (4.9%) at 9pm. ITV's Celebrity Squares remained consistent with 2.04m (10.7%) for its latest episode at 7.15pm (76k/0.3% on +1). Vera followed with 4.70m (20.8%) at 8pm (318k/1.6%). On Channel 4, Three in a Bed entertained 650k (3.5%) at 7pm (117k/0.5%), while For the Love of Cars dipped to 1.22m (5.5%) at 8pm (210k/0.9%). Later, The Impossible captivated 1.37m (7.3%) at 9pm (229k/2.0%). Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls and The Last Stand were Channel 5's Sunday evening film selections, with the former bringing in 752k (3.7%) at 7.15pm and the latter entertaining 945k (4.9%) at 9pm. |

Poldark could just make it to 5 series but no more. It has been an entertaining series. Much better viewing than The Village.

Strong evening for BBC One on all 3 main shows, Vera held up well on ITV - Celebrity Squares just hasn't taken off, is the format all wrong for 2015? BBC Two seems low also - around 1.0m all evening. Around 20 million viewers in primetime.

Strong figures for ITV3's royal documentary Kate Middleton: Heir We Go Again! last night, which scored 545k (2.4%) at 9pm.
Other notable multichannel performers were Arsenal v Chelsea (1.6m/11.6% on Sky Sports 1) and the Come Dine With Me omnibus on More 4 (peaked at 514k/2.9%). Full top 10's for Friday, Saturday and Sunday: http://www.itvmedia.co.uk/ |

Official first week ratings for Spike, certainly a big improvement on VIVA in any case.
Code:
1 BREAKING BAD (THU 2300) 242 2 BREAKING BAD (WED 2259) 228 3 BREAKING BAD (FRI 2301) 202 4 FILM: THE EXPENDABLES 2 (THU 2104) 201 5 POLICE INTERCEPTORS UNLEASHED (WED 2001)166 6 LIP SYNC BATTLE (WED 2133) 157 7 LIP SYNC BATTLE (SUN 2133) 127 8 OLYMPUS (WED 2201) 108 9 FAIL ARMY (WED 2100) 89 10 FAIL ARMY (SUN 2101) 85 |

Breaking Bad is working for Spike. Some were unconvinced that it would, suggesting that anyone who would want to see it would already have found a way of doing so. Obviously not as those are great numbers for 11pm on a new channel not available on cable.
Still needs some more noisy shows during peak but Lip Sync Battle could improve looking at the repeat figure. And I'd imagine The Walking Dead which starts Friday will be its most watched programme from this week onwards. Also, not a great start for the Saturday fight night it would seem with the MMA not charting. But Spike are committed to this and I expect over time it will grow and the slot will become one of the channel's most reliable in terms of ratings. |

The LA Screenings are coming soon so I imagine 5 and Viacom will be on the hunt for new shows both for the main channel and also Spike, 5* and 5USA. |

3D TV is deader than The Charleston in this country. I said this last year. There's little interest.

It's here! It's actually here! Somewhere in the depths of the BBC they've found the Car Share tapes and now it graces the world... but how will it rate? BBC One and ITV go head to head with dramas as The C Word and Home Fires battle it out; which show will win? Inspector George Gently returns on Wednesday so how will it do and will it dent Newzoids further? The election is slogging to a close but will the Question Time special poll high? Nick and Margaret don't really care... they're playing around on trains! Will the show keep you on the right track to win the week?
Why not have a go on the DS Ratings Prediction Game? Just click HERE, hit quote, delete the quote marks and get predicting! Thank you to everyone who takes part in advance and sorry to all the poor souls who have to read through this. ![]()

Couple of interesting scheduling snippets which everyone probably knows about already for Saturday 9th May:
- BBC One are provisionally airing VE Day 70: A Party to Remember at 8.30pm. Atlantis airs between 7.35pm - 8.20pm with the lottery slotting in after that as a ten minute show. - Britain's Got Talent is cut in length from the usual 75 minute episode to 60 minutes. Can't see any obvious reason why. |

One Show - unwatchable, as per usual SNP interview - no thank you, especially with E Davis conducting the interview EastEnders - glory days long gone Panorama - some election prediction nonsense fronted by the loathsome R Bacon Old Tricks - lazy choice of repeat, as usual HIGNFY - well past its sell by date At least the programme you mention firmly ticks the PSB box. |

And Iam a Sassenach and can't vote for her sadly. I like Evan.
