I wouldn't underestimate the nostalgia factor. Cold Feet was a sensation when it was on because the people in it were the same ages as the audience and it accurately reflected their lives, I think a lot of people will return to it because to a lot of people, they're like old friends.

Anyway, I have a potential tidbit of news. A company we work with regularly are trying to get the contract to produce a new version of the Fort Boyard format. Obviously it's probably just a pilot but are there any bets on what channel it might be on? I'd love for it to be Five but I can't see it.

Re Cold Feet, let's not forget it was never a monster ratings hit in 1990s/early 2000s terms. The ratings are all there on Wikipedia and it was basically a 7-8m moderate success not a 10-13m+ leviathan. True it got its best numbers for the short s5 wrap up with 10m+ for the last ever episode.
But that's the start point, the peak. It would be odd if the series got some of its best ever figures for a 10 years on slightly unnecessary and desperate revival, so you kind of think it's in the 6-7m bracket at absolute best. |

Anyone still wondering about why the BBC prioritises the Olympics so much and why so much of it is on BBC1:
w/e 21/08/16 was BBC1’s highest share since the London Olympics. w/e 14/08/16 was BBC1’s 3rd highest share since the London Olympics. NB. The 2nd highest share since the London Olympics was the week Murray won Wimbledon in 2013. See link and adjust start date: http://www.barb.co.uk/trendspotting/...viewing-share/ |

I used to love watching Sunset Beach on FIVE. More for the announcer taking the piss before it aired though.

Thanks Ray.
Casualty gave a lift to Holby City, One Of Us is another BBC1 drama that can't keep viewers and a great start for the New York: America's Busiest City on BBC2. |

Over a year late, but Channel 5 has finally managed to get Spike on Virgin TV.
That can't hurt the chances of Battlebots getting off to a good start on Sunday. |

She seems to be the kiss of death for any programme. Perhaps directors need to stop hiring her. Also does it have the ABBA song as theme tune?

More often than not, BBC2 success in factual is frequent. Also I don't know about anyone else, but ITV doing badly on Tuesday is getting so boring. A drams starting last night would have been ideal. One Of Us on BBC1 not doing well, ITV could have taken advantage. They cannot keep scheduling nothing but flimsy factual on Tuesday, its just weakening the schedule. At some point they need to put a drama at 9pm. |

Too much factual and not enough entertainment. |

I can't believe Ch5 is 20years old. It feels like its been here longer than that. I'm 24, but its difficult to think Ch5 not actually being that old at all.
