21:05 - FILM: The Bourne Identity (2002): 1.08m (6.7%) exc HD & +1 Even with its exclusions, that's incredibly bad. Over-use? |

I think the Football League Tonight rating on Channel 5 only serves to highlight how vital the Match of the Day lead-in has been for them on BBC One in recent years.

17.4% and 13.2% respectively (exc HD & +1).
![]() ![]() So I'd expect KIITF to end up with around 20% and The Cube around 15%. KIITF doesn't actually seem to have done too badly, certainly not compared to last time. |

ITV's idea of a late-evening highlight in this period was re-showings of the original 1970s Star Wars films, wrapped around the news. |

Not terrible for the FLS on 5, once Autumn kicks in it could get 1m+, they just need to show the right highlights and give on screen plugs from 5pm onwards.
Just 3 more August weekends to go then ratings will surely start to climb again.... |

Though in three weeks time The X Factor will probably run across the 9pm slot and within six it will have the Rugby World Cup to deal with. It isn't going to be an easy ride for the show.

Don't worry, there's bound to be a few manufactured scandals and disagreements between the judges, just to drum up publicity.
What's that got to do with the discussion at hand?EDIT: Oh I see. I meant it's not going to be easy for Football League Today; not The X Factor. |

Been looking at tomorrow's listings and Tipping Point is in the 3pm slot Hello Campers should've been pulled weeks ago IMO
On a quiz related note anyone know how 15 To 1 on Channel 4 and Two Tribes on BBC2 have been doing since they returned on July 13th |

I think the lack of success of Keep it in the Family is the reason BBC are not bringing back The Generation Game.
The shows are fairly similar in format (though family has mated Gen Game with 321 and Crackerjack). They have a genial host (Bradley Walsh does this show about as well as it could be done). Theoretically Saturday night is ideal for it as it is in the Gen Game slot. If it cannot get viewers there then the BBC will have figured that even with Miranda Hart presenting a Gen Game revival would likely fare only a bit better. Quote:
Wasn't Mrs Brown meant to be getting the format that Rob Brydon ended up with as a later Saturday Show, I feel that would have worked a lot better imo

The 83 and 84 figures would be fantastic ratings for today, with shows getting over 5 million and Dynasty getting 8 million. But it does show how things have changed, not with regard to multi channel tv but with just what rubbish is churned out now.

Saturday Night Football comes from the same studio as last season. The only difference is they don't have an audience in it anymore. Much better.

Lest we forget that when it moved to the Beeb - and it hasn't been there for very long, only six years, ITV before that had the rights for over twenty years - there were plenty of moans about the show because they had lots of tweets and e-mails in it and pointless wandering around, and people saying they preferred it on ITV. So being on commercial TV is not in itself a downside. Quote:

They get top billing on C5 but if casual football fans aren't going to look out for it, is there any value in that? Yeah, League Two clubs may now get their goals at 10pm rather than 1am, but they lose them being on Football Focus and Final Score, plus the simple announcement that that's where they are on Match on the Day. Better sometimes to be the supporting feature to something bigger than trying to go out on your own. Quote:

A positive post about a well loved entertainer who died last week. Cilla Black, as well being a very successful pop star in the sixties, was ratings gold when she moved from singing to television. Her BBC show Cilla attracted 18 million viewers a week. Not as well remembered as Blind Date, Cilla was part of a trend the BBC used on Saturday nights in the seventies to base a variety show around a middle of the road singer. Pet Clark, Cilla Black, Lulu and Val Doonican had shows built around them that were massive.

Well, the audience was a waste of time but I wouldn't argue it was any better because now there's just no point them being in the studio at all, it is absolutely pointless. You don't save any money either because you have to light and power the studio, especially one as big as that. You've got to be at the ground anyway so sending the presenter and pundits and pointing a camera at them is a trivial expense. It's also unbelievably boring, there are no interesting film pieces or interviews, just loads of dull chat from Dave Jones, who is adequate but not a very interesting presenter, and Jamie Redknapp who is a dreadful pundit. Saturday Night Football has always been dull but it was toe-curling and dull with an audience. They didn't know what to do with them. Now they have a massive aircraft hangar space that looks very empty. Monday Night Football and Super Sunday show how it should be done. But to be honest Soccer Saturday is the best of the lot. |

Meant to reply to what Steve Williams said in the previous thread but it's locked. So.... http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showp...ostcount=10205 Quote:
The difference between Deal Or No Deal and Countdown is that Deal Or No Deal is not much of a format and it lives and dies entirely on its presentation, and obviously the novelty is going to wear off. Countdown is a format that can literally run forever. It's also a totally unfair comparison to look at the ratings for Countdown from ten or fifteen years ago when it was at 4.30 and facing kids shows on two channels, plus with high rating shows either side of it, to now when it's at 2pm, its umpteenth slot in recent years, facing strong schedules from BBC1 and ITV and surrounded by a load of rubbish. The "boring" comment is entirely subjective as well.
Quote:
But that's not the best way to make television, is it? Little and Large were rubbish, as you admit their ratings went up because ITV were even worse, but even at the age of ten I could see they were running out of ideas and the show was a mess. If a show is not achieving things artistically, especially on the BBC it doesn't matter if it's getting high ratings. Do we continue New Tricks until the very last viewer has switched off, no matter how outlandish the plots and how often the cast changes, or do we try and keep a decent standard and ensure people have fond memories of it when it finishes?
Calling Little & Large rubbish is just as subjective as saying Countdown is boring. How can you say Channel 4 keeping Countdown on life support just to fill a few hours with minimal ratings is different from the BBC keeping Little & Large going when ratings dipped is beyond me.Countdown is only watched as a format during Eight Of Ten Cats Does Countdown. If Deal Or No Deal has seen ratings drop as well as Countdown I don't see how Countdown can get a free pass. Nick Hewer is a terrible host and helped suck the life out of it. It was always fairly boring but it used to be popular and boring. Are you saying Channel 4 should keep Countdown going until every viewer switches off? "But that's not the best way to make television is it?" Didn't you say that?

Hello Campers hasnt been pulled it is still on at 4pm
TP repeats should have been put in at 4pm instead, in order to fairly assess whether Freeze Out can gain a decent audience, with help from its preceding show, rather than having to do so entirely on its own. There's zero sense in keeping Hello Campers on air. It should be binned and never shown again. |
