Excellent for Strictly, the first time it has hit 10m overnight in October since 2011!
Dire for X Factor, I don't know how below 6m can be defended as being good. For all of the changes they have made, yet again, it's not doing the business. Meet the Parents is a flop, why do they bother? |

Excellent for Strictly. Series high.
XF is really struggling. Under 6m is very poor. |

Over 10m for #Strictly last night, and Pointless Celebrities peaking higher than X Factor! X Factor just until 6m. |

No show as big as TXF can be defended for being below 6 million. Just awful numbers.

Strong average but unspectacular peak. When BGT gets 10.1m it's peaking with 11.3, 4, 5. The time also shows XF gave it a leg-up.
Not ideal for XF but higher than The Voice's 4m, so up 50% on that. Up week on week too. How you've managed to do down a fantastic Strictly rating, and big up an average night for X Factor is remarkable. |

Great for SCD.
Enjoyed JR last night with Phil Collins. That MTP rating suggests all that "trending on twitter" stuff is pretty irrelevant when it equates to the numbers who are watching. |

Meet the Parents is a flop, why do they bother? It isn't good for X Factor. It really should be over 6m (although it might have scraped past it with something better than Meet The Parents on before it). It seemed to just lose the momentum going into the live shows this year. 3 weeks ago the judges houses Saturday show aired in the same slot as last night with a similar SCD overlap and averaged 6.8m, which would be decent. I'm not sure if it was the choice of finalists or just live show format fatigue that caused it to drop from there but it isn't good. |

Why does this BBC propagandist post about ratings, he embarrasses himself. I think Pointless would do much better without him.

You wouldn't complain when an ITV "propagandist" is doing the same with X Factor.

They need to get rid of Meet The Parents. That is a horrible number. Not sure what they've got that could replace it though. I imagine The Next Great Magician will be no better in a few weeks as well.

A poor and dismal rating , little viewer engagement in the show. Lots of complaints bring the Nicole show, and the poor acts. |

An embarrassment for X-Factor. Its cheerleaders should call it a day.

X Factor looks to be 0.18m higher than last week, so either very slightly up or basically exactly the same depending on your view.
It'll be interesting to see how 10 pages of arguments and baiting other posters can be generated from this, presumably repeating all last week's posts a few more times. |

I don't think the contestants they chose has helped. I know a few weeks ago you said you didn't miss anyone from the earlier stages - but the people I know who watch it (and including myself) a lot of their favourites didn't make it to live shows. And they said if their favorite isn't in the live shows then they've no interest to continue watching which I agree with. Not seen last nights show yet and like the last few weeks it'll probably be good but there's very few people I care about. That's the problem IMO.
I guess the one thing is that if it is the choice of acts that caused the ratings to drop, then those viewers could potentially be won back again for the early stages next year more easily than if they switched off for other reasons. But they've got a long run to this year's final yet, with Halloween/Bonfire Night yet to come! |

Absolutely fantastic viewers there for Strictly there, well deserved.
