The right thing to stay. Would of been madness to give up on that drama and go to the News.

I cant quite understand how we became so good at Cycling but its making for some fabulous moments and some brilliant ratings. No enormous Bolt/Ennis/Farah Athletics inspired peaks but still making for an impressive games for ratings.

Sky money is why Britain is good at cycling. Invested in the sport and British cyclists have flourished as a result. It helps that cycling is taking place in primetime at this Olympics. It's giving us great moments and stories.

Lmfao oh North Lad, I rarely visit this thread much but it's nice to see you still peddle your anti BBC shite.
No announcements because nobody knew there would be 2 false starts.

Not really Sky only came on when Team GB dominated the Tour De France and 2008 Olympics. It helps but it didn't start the fire by any means

The National lottery is the main reason. Also the 2002 Commonwealth games in Manchester gave us the infrastructure

Blimey, claiming it's all down to Sky is ridiculous.
Lottery funding started it all off.

Jake didn't, I did.

You're both right about the National Lottery funding. Completely forgot. The majority of funding comes from them.

Indeed and John Mayor has suddenly become very popular, as he was in power when the lottery was authorised.

True the unsung hero of the last 4 Olympics.

What a fantastic Tuesday for Team GB! It's incredible seeing all this talent and them being rewarded! Ratings should be great!

I read a comment on BBC Sport Facebook page which I completely agreed with. Basically the comment said, we've had a pretty bad year, reputation of the country hasn't been great.

I agree, Euro's was tough not only on the fact England didn't play well (I don't support the football team, however Ireland and Wales did themselves proud), but internationally we were seen as "thugs" along with Russia due to the events and fights that were shown all around Europe. i can't fault media around the world for that because England football fans do have (not all) a bad rep. Then we had Brexit, with whatever you believe has caused more divisions between the people that wanted in and those who wanted out, it's broken up friendships and left a sour taste in mouths in general.

These Olympic games has made me feel much better. Team GB have been incredible. THIS is feel-good TV. This is what makes us Great. And it;s not just GB, but generally. Seeing such brilliant sportsmanship is lovely to see.

None of this country vs country crap we saw for the Euro's.

How on earth has it backfired. Ratings from 10-11 tonight will be of the charts
Agreed, the drama around the Kierin restarts was some of the most gripping TV in ages.

In the sense that BBC1 could have shown the main news and regional news at 10pm and cut back to the kierin at 10.30. Instead the news hasn't even aired yet! Hardly seems any point airing it now. It has also rather screwed up BBC1 showing other live Olympics coverage when they finally cut to the news at 11.25...
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but is no basis for a decision "on the fly"

A large part was down to Lottery funding that was ploughed into the sport (thanks to John Major!), along with a commitment to look at the science & technology involved. Chris Boardman was also saying that they looked closely at the aerodynamics of the clothing, and were looking for ways to accommodate the competitor numbers in the design (as it was felt that these extra pieces of material would be affecting those aerodynamics). Plus, Team GB seem to concentrate on one goal - the Olympics.

And of course, Chris Hoy's earlier successes inspired people to take up track cycling

Thanks to them moving EE and the news delay, it was one continuous programme from 7pm to 11:25pm last night on BBC1

I don't know exactly how BBC2 panned out but I think it went something like this

10:00 QI
10:30 Coast
10:40 Coast
10:50 Coast
11:00 Coast
11:10 Coast
11:25 Olympics 2016
11:55 Newsnight

This thing on ITV this Saturday called Spotless, I have no idea what it is, whether its a pilot or just a pilot that is being burned off, (the latter I think) but I feel like its going to give ITV one of their worst ever Saturday ratings. What with this at 7pm and the over played Bourne film at 9pm, ITV's Saturday rating is going to look like they are aiming for Ch5 ratings.

BBC4 - 580K

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but it would have been easier to just take Newsnight off for two weeks, or just have a weekend special. It is the same with EastEnders, they could have easily reduced the episodes over the two weeks rather than breaking coverage just for EastEnders.

What a stonking average, 9m over 4.5 hours!

Wonder what the peaktime shares were for the terrestrials.

And what's even more astonishing is that the peak was close to the end of "peak time" too.

I guess with low overnight slot ratings during this period, when The X Factor returns they can claim that the programme is X percent higher then previous weeks. Useful just in case TXF returns a little lower than the previous year. All about those headlines

I don't doubt that TXF will with return with decent numbers though
