What's going to air on 28th March if Marcella is April 4th, I assume Maigret is Easter Sunday which rules it out for Easter Monday
Maybe Maigret will be on Easter Monday then

We assess success in here, not quality.
Purleeze - the qualitative failings of the soaps, X Factor, Strictly, The Voice etc get chewed over incessantly in this thread so it's a little late to pretend it's all about the ratings.

But both are areas where I expect to see C5 improve in the coming months. The emphasis will be more on the former and understandably so, winning over Guardian readers long-term is not part of the strategy and nor should it be.
You're always expecting improvement. It's always about to arrive. Have you noticed that?

I don't read The Guardian.

Frankly I find it hard to believe that somebody who only looks at the negatives, could ever acknowledge anything positive or meaningful that they are doing. And that's the problem really.
HmmMMmm.... I got dissed.

Whilst I accept not everyone is going to share my belief that they can be much of a player beyond the odd show like Celebrity Big Brother or X-Files, I'd rather we were more analytical than judgemental in here because it makes for better quality discussions.
Where's the evidence that they want to be a player in terms of quality? They're like an alcoholic always promising to give up but ending up back in the bottle each and every time.

Budgies Make You Laugh Out Loud - It's beyond even Monkey Tennis and Youth Hostelling with Chris Eubank.

There's a TBA between 8-10pm on Easter Sunday so I suspect Maigret is airing there.

The BBC will be rubbing their hands with glee as it bumps up the ratings.

I read that piece and I thought whoever wrote it clearly doesn't watch Game of Thrones!

Another great figure there for The Night Manager.

Doctor Thorne struggling. Mr Fellows certainly doesn't have the midas touch with his writing skills.

Thank you Ray, do you have the share?

Very good rating for it considering it didn't have a Midwife lead in, looking forward to the final two episodes.

If anything I'd say Indian Summers and Doctor Thorne would hurt each other more than The Night Manager, because both costume dramas skew older.

Amazing figure for Countryfile considering it was a compilation programme and one of the items was three years old !

Interesting piece in the Guardian about Doctor Thorne basically saying that there is too much plot and not enough character development. Perhaps one of the reasons why it hasn't captured more of the audience ?

Bad night for ITV there. I see Beowulf only ran for 52 minutes as well (19:02-19:54), so presumably they are struggling to sell advertising during it.

Budgies Make You Laugh Out Loud: 0.71m (3.5%)
Penn and Teller: Fool Us in Vegas: 0.92m (4.3%)
Film: Jonah Hex: 0.75m (3.5%)

Fool Us in Vegas increased! Who knew hitting the 8pm junction along with other channels was important?

Oh yes, everybody.

That's a shame the Cat programme is very good, can't say the same about Beowolf though.
