Peter Kay's appeared live on Strictly last night, and I was going to suggest an entertainment format for him. However his minute airtime has caused a stir:
http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/o...-peter-9293954 It just shows how public culture has changed over time, no-one would have batted an eyelid in the seventies. Or if they did no-one would have taken any notice. |

Note it's not the BBC who decide it's the public vote, Craig may annoy a few on his marks, but is honest, he explains why. Many people have their favourites so vote for them.

High end of my expectations for mcintyre, however secretly I would have loved it to be closer to seven, I'm guessing this will be sandwiched between the strictly final so could see a great final rating.

Blackpool always rates well and last night was no exception. There will always be differing opinions on the quality of the show. Let's not forget, that's all it is. A posters personal opinion. There is nothing factual, it's an opinion.
Surprised MM did so well. IAC did fine and XF is pretty static. Hard to see how it's going to improve much now. |

Also regarding McIntyre I wonder if this series continues well, will they aim for 2 series next year, or will they be airing a new sat drama next autumn. I would either have two series or on extended run.

Maybe next year, the BBC could be a bit more "naughty": 5.55pm Pointless Celebrities 6.45 Michael McIntyres Big Show 7.45 Strictly Come Dancing 9.10 His Dark Materials And put Casualty on on Friday night. |

According to The Sun (I know) ITV has signed for another three years of IAC

Isn't "His Dark Materials" lined up for the post Strictly slot next year? Must admit, it will be nice to have a fantasy drama following Strictly again.

What's the cut off point for finishing filming the results show?
I can't see how ITV are going to be competitve again on autumn Saturday and Sunday's. People say axe The X Factor but replace it with what? Whereas the BBC just have solid show after solid show. |

One show aired until 8.45pm this year didn't it? I guess the cut off is then.

I agree about Saturdays, it is tough. The 6-8pm block is a nightmare for them. They need to just keep plugging away with new shows. Ideally they'd do what BBC1 has with McIntyre and find a hit in an easier time of year and then move it. Still easier said than done though. |

They could theoretically get it all done and dusted by 11pm. |

Wow...nearly half the viewing audience for BBC Strictly. Excellent stuff. BBC Michael MacIntyre's Big Show did better than I expected. I was thinking it would get 4.5 million. Whilst not overly keen on Mac (I find him a bit silly/immature) I quite enjoyed it. The singing fireman at the end with his stunning voice, wow! There is a format there to work on and fine tune.

One wonders how close the XF numbers would be to last year were it not being assaulted in the schedules by our wonderful, untouchable PSB. Probably not matching, due to a line-up considered weak and natural decline, but perhaps within 200-300k of it.

Delighted Mikey's Big Show did fairly well, was a fantastically entertaining show with the exception of Ellie Goulding. Although 'fairly well' comes with the caveat of it looking better for its low expectations rather than in terms of the actual middling number.

The repeats catch a fair few viewers, too. SCD's consolidated are helped by all timeshifting/on demand being added to the one linear showing, whereas XFactor's are split between the first and the repeats. |

Who even cares? These comparisons are SO 2010. SCD's audience are more loyal and likely to be sat inside every evening watching TV.
On a few occasions, The Next Great Magician (brand new ITV LE show) hasn't been a million miles off matching SCD in 16-34 numbers... |

Only issue for me was the lip syncing on BBC One HD. Really annoying and a bit of a distraction.

I personally find The X Factor live shows a huge improvement on 2014, certainly 2015 and 2013. It's a very fun show to watch now takes its self less seriously but however the production has been spot on. Last night was the best live show since the glory days I think.

BINGO!!
Got it in one - a "story" trawled from a small number of Tweets. Impressed with the Michael McIntyre rating and I think the later time does help so I hope any future series stays at the later slot. Strictly as big as ever. |

On a similar note, I think many get blinded by 'ratings nostalgia' over 2008-11. Folk need to see that, yes many were watching then, but they weren't necessarily the best productions. |

In fairness, it was partly due to the amplified acoustics of the ballroom itself. It was a little grating for the viewer admittedly, but I guess sometimes things like this happen. It hasn't happened before and chances are it probably won't happen next year!
