Unfortunately soaps are regular high performers. I'm almost certain Countryfile would lose out to the soaps. Both shows target the same older audience.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/j...-could-9111769 I can see why ITV would want The Grand Tour, but not sure whether Amazon would actually sell it to them. It could play quite well for them on a Tuesday at 8pm, the benchmark would be pretty low and it'd skew male. 3-3.5 million there would be a decent result (as long as they get it at a decent price). |

Countryfile starts in the mid 5's but is above 6m after 10 minutes and above 7m half an hour in so 30 minutes before Strictly starts. Strictly clearly helps but it's still pretty good going anyway.

Then put Emmerdale at 6:30 and Corro at 7pm on a Saturday and have XF, Takeaway, Voice, Dance or BGT follow them.

I think you under-estimate how much soaps are valued in this country. They aren't just cheap, lazy filler filmed on a low budget in one indoor studio.
Broadcasters got lazy and instead of finding new hits thought just bung another soap episode on. The soap explosion of the nineties was one of the worst things that happened to TV in this country. They block primetime and other channels decided just to put factual opposite them. Primetime ruined, variety reduced. Put something half decent against it and they get dented. But there's no money which is why you get more soaps and mainly factual against them. It's like a nightmare! I weep for the variety that we used to get in primetime on BBC1 and ITV. There's a large audience out there not interested in Emmerdale or The One Show at 7pm. The same bloody programmes day after day until the end of time! Drop the bomb! |

No, no, no, the soaps have to stay away from Saturday nights. Putting them back on Sundays would be fine but they'd just be out of place on a Saturday and really would be one step too far.
Personally I feel that they are on too much now, but they are ratings bankers so it is expected for them to be where they are. |

Please could someone let me know the ratings for the NFL on BBC2 yesterday 2pm-6pm? It always under-performs it's slots and I don't understand why the BBC give it such prominence over other minor sports especially after such high numbers for various Olympic sports over the summer.

It would possibly push the commitment of those viewers too. Some just wouldn't be able to keep up with every episode. Saturdays should be kept free from soaps, and Sundays too.
Personally I feel that they are on too much now, but they are ratings bankers so it is expected for them to be where they are. I'd like E/CS to be on 7-8pm Monday to Friday and leave the rest of the evening to develop new shows. EE would go to 8pm and the BBC win by facing fewer soaps and owning the 8pm slot. No clashes and soap fans and non-soap fans know where they are. Isn't going to happen and the soaps will keep bleeding viewers. They've got 10 years left in them still. That's a long time. |

This is why lead in's are important. If CF has Can't Touch This on before it, pulling in 2m, it would take longer to build up that audience. Countryfile is perfect Sunday night TV, but it also the perfect factual to build up an audience waiting for SCD to start. |

Any other Saturday ratings? All that was available was Strictly for BBC1 and the Saturday triad for ITV.

ITV's highest is Tipping Poing which was expected. |

Does anyone know if those quizzes they tried, Alphabetical/Cash Trapped have been renewed? Rebound is on at 3pm now and that is the right idea though 20 episodes is not enough. All four channels seem to be searching for these shows. |
