I'm not. It was utter garbage. Agree about GS though, the best of the lot.

Is that it or could we expect more commissions? I enjoyed all the BBC2 ones, and bringing back Goodnight Sweetheart felt so right.

If you deduct the +1 Coronation St was more or less same figure as EastEnders the night before.

It's been a while... but I can finally tell you #Humans 2.0 will be back on Sun 30th Oct 9pm C4 ⚡️⚡️ https://t.co/2pHXbSu6TH

Where's Homeland going this year? January, like season one, or a different night/slot?

I hope they add a couple more as I really want Goodnight Sweetheart to go to series. Motherland was the best of the BBC2 pilots so no surprise it got a series.

Is the idea that the BBC make the right call on Our Zoo supported by the fact that ITV and others haven't picked it up?

OMG !

Including +1:

Grand Designs: 2m (10.2%)
Can't Pay? We'll Take It Away!: 1.9m (9%)

We need to have a prediction thread or table for GBBO on 4. We are now down to talk of 3m overnights and I assume 4m consolidated.

It would be interesting to look back at the guesses.

Good question. I forgot about Homeland.

Its harmless fun, but it one of those programmes that will only rate well on BBC1 because its harmless fluff without adverts.

Ch4 are going to over expose The Last Leg. It might do well, but seriously; first Gogglebox, then Cats now this, next it'll be Bake-Off.

Good ratings for both. Can't Pay though is a big hit for Ch5.

Fantastic for Bake-Off. Our Girl doesn't really deserve another series. If it was leading out of a regular programme at 8pm, then perhaps, but its being supported massively by Bak-Off. Away from Bak-Off it'll likely be under 4m.

But it skews young, and not many BBC dramas do that. So its all about spreading the dramas that skew differently.

I think the BBC were disappointed by Our Zoo's figures as a Bake Off lead out. However, in the grand scheme of things it was a decent rating programme. It consolidated over 5m for all episodes bar one and probably could've increased its audience for a second series on Sunday surrounded by the reliable Countryfile, Strictly Results and Antiques Roadshow lineup.

I'd say....

Episode 1- 4.1m (official of 4.7m)
Episode 2- 3.2m (official of 3.5m)

And then average 2.8m overnights (3.2m) across the run.

I think away from Bake Off it would be getting low 3m. It's got the best lead in for a weekday show in how long? In years and years, but can't muster mid 4m overnights?

It would never ever have a lead in as good as that unless it aired behind a World Cup game or something, so it really should be doing 5m.

Writers Marks and Gran have confirmed on Twitter this morning that they were negotiating with the BBC up to yesterday who admitted the excellence of Goodnight Sweetheart but have now passed on the option for a new series.

The writers seem to be looking for another channel and they have a lot of requests from fans for more.

I think we might see it turn up on one of the channels like Dave.

Seems a rather strange decision by the BBC as I expected at least another one off special. And in the threads on here it was overwhelmingly regarded as the best of the returning sit coms despite being badly hampered by getting commissioned and filmed so late that it missed all the press publicity and was awol from the TV ads promoting the series aside from one very brief insert for the last couple of days.

That ED figure looks good!

Delighted that Motherland has gone to a full series - I thought the pilot was superb.

Absolutely. Two of my favourites Anna Maxwell-Martin and Philomena Cunk together couldn't fail!!

Madness!

Sadly the BBC have passed on Goodnight Sweetheart, whilst acknowledging its excellence. Gary will have to find another TV channel.

Looking at the latest iPlayer (device) figures, Our Girl is the highest rated drama in both live streamed and on demand.

Must influence the recommission.

Well Yesterday has just started showing it from the beginning so er Dave
