True and this situation that the BBC enjoys has taken years to get to. ITV has chased younger viewers and driven millions away by stuffing their weekdays with soaps.
Lygo decides to show similar dramas on consecutive nights and chops the legs off new LE formats. Oh and he wants more Corrie. Hardly surprising BBC1 is the default option for millions. |

She's still the biggest in the world, last album has sold over 10 million is US alone. Which X factor winner has achieved that?
1D did have two of the top five LPs of the year in America but they weren't XF winners. |

Yep, she's only a small act in the U.K.

Geez, you don't give up do you? I'm guessing you have the Adele calendar and annual by your bed at night too.

BBC News is on before Pointless, which is default viewing fr those older viewers who watch SCD.
BBC News at 5.30pm is often 3.5m+, so Pointless has a good starting audience to grow from. ![]() Do you think that if The Getaway Car or Can't Touch This or Five Star Family Reunion had been on at 6pm last night, they would have averaged 4.8m across the hour? No chance. The first two would probably have had half that. People watch Pointless because they enjoy it, not because they've dropped the remote control down the back of the sofa. |

I knew you'd come back with this one. You can't help yourself. You're always having a dig at the BBC.

What I am saying, is that the celeb editions on weekends are boosted by leading into SCD due to a similar skew. As is Countryfile. Both are popular, but both gain from the SCD lead in. I don't doubt The Getaway Car would be less, but these are flops and are aimed mostly towards a younger audience and so wouldn't skew similarly to SCD bulk audience. |

I think you've gone too high for Planet Earth 2 and too low for X Factor James. But I'm just guessing like you.

Planet Earth II debuted with 9.2m last night #tvratings Good god! That is a stunning rating! I know people will say it had a big lead in, etc but that is a brilliant rating. May well timeshift to over 11m! Richard Osman @richardosman 18s18 seconds ago 10.2m for #Strictly last night, followed by an incredible 9.2m for #planetearth2 . #XFactor held up well with 6.5m. |

I thought it would get 8m at least. The hype on social media was huge amongst young people as well.
But didn't expect it to be that big . Fantastic rating.

Strictly Come Dancing: The Results was the most watched show on TV yesterday with a peak audience of 11m. Average 10.1m and 42.5 share. X Factor had 6.5m which is very good considering it was up against Planet Earth. |

Good for The X Factor, it's a distinguished alternative to Plsnet Earth 2.

Fantastic for PE especially when you consider XF had two of the biggest artists around on the show.

Still amazed by that Planet Earth rating.
Credit where it's due, X Factor held up really well. Either Planet Earth didn't dent it or it would have got a boost under normal circumstances. Not sure which is the case but I can't think of anything else ITV have that could have got 6.5m up against Planet Earth. Particularly with what I imagine was a rubbish lead-in. Amazing for Strictly, this is the time last year when it started posting 10m+ overnights too. Wonder how low Magician and Rockers were. |

Strong Ratings for all the big shows last night. SCD results over 10m 😱 Better for X Factor I knew it would be up as Sundays are bigger than Saturdays to be honest these days.. Planet Earth over 9m that's an amazing achievement.
