Daybreak was axed when ratings fell to 600,000. It's funny when you think about it. The Good Morning Britain audience isn't the BBC Breakfast audience. They need to look elsewhere.

And Adam Crozier said recently if GMB fell below a 15% share it would cease to be viable for ITV.

Where is the exact quote of that? I've heard that a few times but don't recall ever seeing it myself.

Well I always thought TVAM was saved not by Roland Rat but by Happy Days. And Anne and Nick.
There really should be 1m viewers for a lighter programme than News. |

Regarding the comments earlier about Netflix really be an add on to having Sky, they do seem to be targetting acquiring UK rights for many of the new US shows that you would have seen Sky buy quite recently.
Not just the new Star Trek series, but they have high profile US shows like Designated Survivor - which with the Keifer Sutherland lead you would have expected Sky to go for - and recent acquisitions of Frequency - the new US series based on the time travel cop movie - and The Expanse - a new SyFy space series. Wonder if it will be Netflix outdoing Channel 4 for the spin off from The Good Wife, too? As that is now coming early next year in place of Star Trek Discovery that was set to launch the new streaming service in the US but has been put back to May due to them not even having cast it yet! |

The Guardian reporting that the BBC only kept the Olympics because Discovery feared a backlash if they became the sole rights holders.

Sky seem to realise that they need to keep making HBOesque drama. In a way, Jekyll and Beowulf are dramas that sky Atlantic might have done really well. As might ITV Encore. Time to leave the pool, fly and put on a pair of socks again. I need to marry a footballer. |

Sky press release - it shows the deal they did a while back to have exclusive rights to all future HBO and Showtime shows (ie those starting from this year onward) is paying dividends, even in the Netflix era:
"The first episode of futuristic series Westworld has been watched by a consolidated audience of 1.84 million, making it the biggest launch of a brand new series in Sky Atlantic 's history. After being watched by an overnight audience of 458K on Tuesday 4th October, more than 1.38 million viewers have taken advantage of catching up on the show flexibly over the following seven days, through their Sky+ recordings and on demand." |

The ratings are embarrassing, but ITV is still the only viable network to advertise on in the mornings. |

Too many changes, when the original format started to pick up. Im sure in October and early November of launch year, it settled around 800k. Then ratings started falling again when they changed the format. |

I see BBC One has started trailing Planet Earth 2 - where do you see this going?
Poldark's replacement on a Sunday from the 13 November ending on 18th December or the GBBO replacement on a Wednesday at 8pm starting November 2 ending then with two Wednesdays for BBC One to show the GBBO Christmas specials Update - seen from programme Info that Arctic Live is on BBC Two at 8pm on November 2 so doubt they would have same type of programme on both channels |

If I remembered right, Daybreak started to pick up towards end of October and early November of launch year (while still in original format) then they started to GMTVify it then ratings started to freefall. They then panicked and washed the studio with yellow and scatter cushions and bought back Arnold and axed A&C then it was the end.

Here are the figures for this week
Mon – 16.9% / 660,000 Tues – 14.7% / 530,000 Weds – 16.3% / 610,000 Thurs - 14.9% / 550,000 Monday is the strongest ratings day, for some reason (and that reason can't be Morgan, as he also presents on Tuesday and Wednesday). Dreadful figures overall. |

And Discovery were right.
Hutton is also interested in increasing Eurosport’s Wimbledon coverage. “Eighteen months ago there was no Wimbledon coverage on Eurosport. Last year, we had it on in 12 markets and highlights and the finals in the UK, taking Wimbledon to pay TV audiences for the first time in the UK. “Next year we are looking at 25 markets and I hope we can talk to Wimbledon and the BBC and deepen the relationship [in the UK] as well,” he said. |

BBC1
EastEnders: 5.46m (27.5%) The One Show: 4.39m (25.2%) Holby City: 4.04m (19.4%) BBC2 Great British Menu: 1.76m (8.9%) Great Continental Railway Journeys: 1.70m (8.1%) The Hairy Bikers: Chicken and Egg: 1.49m (7.2%) Good night for BBC2 as well. There seems to be a lot of gaps in the BBC schedule coming up soon, is there a definitive answer to what will replace them? |

Slippery slope this comment below is as well.The BBC are probably stupid enough to do some sort of sharing deal on one of there last big sports contracts,to save a few quid.

Why has the One Show suddenly jumped up above 4 million two days in a row?

One of C5's most watched 10pm shows all year.
Should never have cancelled / rested Extraordinary People. It's always done a job. And the titles don't have to be that shocking for it to rate. |

Yes I have to see it to believe it.
Also if someone says something once years ago, it stays with them forever as a current opinion and never expires |
