I really enjoyed Walliams and Friend, I found it really funny. I hope it held up ok against IAC. Would be nice to see it above 4m. It would be good for a mainstream terrestrial comedy to become a big hit, there doesn't seem to be many of them these days

I think it might be. I didn't see Walliams & Friend but I've never been a huge fan of his scripted comedy (Big School, Come Fly With Me, even Little Britain). I much prefer him when he's just being himself, in interviews, on BGT etc. He's far funnier in that sort of setting, which The Nightly Show is more likely to replicate.
He's barely going to be off the TV in the next few weeks though, with Walliams & Friend, Royal Variety, Blankety Blank, the Shirley Bassey tribute and then a week on The Nightly Show. He'll then start filming BGT in January. Busy, busy, busy. |

Fri 25/11 I'm a Celebrity: 8.11m (38.1%) inc +1 Up 350k on last year and identical to the equivalent Friday in 2014. |

How do you think Blankety Blank will do on Christmas Day (if it remains in that slot)? Personally I think for its best chance of success it needs to go opposite CTM.

I think it would work better on Christmas Eve rather than the big day.
With BB in the schedule it'll be: film, factual, soap, entertainment, soap, drama. |

It would be best to avoid Strictly though as its light entertainment against stronger light entertainment. I agree it could do very well against Call The Midwife. It could also do very well against Doctor Who, as you've got very different audiences there. In the current schedule it has a 10 minute headstart on Strictly. BBC1's timings will change though as they need a news bulletin in there. I wouldn't be surprised to see the programmes stay the same (and in the same order) but the timings changed to: 15:10 - Frozen 16:45 - BBC News 17:00 - Bake Off 18:00 - Doctor Who 19:00 - Strictly Come Dancing 20:15 - Call The Midwife 21:30 - EastEnders 22:30 - Mrs Brown's Boys 23:05 - Tracey Ullman Or 15:10 - Frozen 16:40 - BBC News 16:50 - Bake Off 17:50 - Doctor Who 18:50 - Strictly Come Dancing 20:00 - Call The Midwife 21:15 - EastEnders 22:20 - Mrs Brown's Boys 23:00 - Tracey Ullman The second schedule would involve some overruns but avoid having to pad out the news. Either way, ITV would probably respond with: 15:10 - The Lion King 17:00 - ITV News 17:15 - Emmerdale 18:15 - Blankety Blank 19:15 - Coronation Street 20:15 - Maigret 22:15 - TBA Or possibly: 15:10 - The Lion King 16:50 - ITV News 17:00 - Emmerdale 18:00 - Blankety Blank 19:00 - Coronation Street 20:00 - Maigret 22:00 - TBA I'm not sure how long The Lion King will be with breaks. C4 ran it in a 1hr 45 slot in the Summer and. I don't think it filled that, so not sure where ITV have got 1 hr 50 from. Either way, The Lion King would start at the same time as Frozen, Blankety Blank would mainly face Doctor Who, Corrie against Strictly and Maigret would start at the same time as Midwife, rather than the latter having a headstart. ITV don't have a bad schedule although they feel a programme short. There's a TBA in the provisionals for 22:30 after Maigret, not sure what that will be though. |

It doesn't rely on the old (SCD) or the young (XFactor) to get headline figures. I expect Saturdays are dented by the younger demos going out. |

Brilliant for IAC again. It's the best show on TV for me personally.

I'm not. It's the only LE format that is event TV, and it gets good numbers across all demos.

Something new ? The BBC were doing those ''look back on the year'' programmes about 20 years ago and ITV did some as well. Library pictures plus a couple of new interviews if you're lucky.

You can't say a programme that gets 10m isn't event TV. Strictly, BGT and IAC are all event TV in that lots of viewers switch on for them.

I can!! IAC, once a year, stripped over three weeks is an event and it performs across all demos without skewing young or old.
BGT is next. |

Here's a rating for you.
The second edition of IAC on Monday 14th November has a final rating of 11.47m. That's up 2.12m from its overnight rating. |

Luidcruous to say a show that gets 10-11 million viewers isn't event tv just because it skews older

I think it's nice they've done that this year (if It sticks)

I need to get a life. ![]() We were supposed to get a schedule update last night but Digiguide sadly hasn't updated (mine hasn't at least) so looks like we're waiting until Monday for some gaps to be filled. What are your thoughts on what we've got so far James? |

Oliver, Derek is still pushing 3D TV as a success, like a Richer Sounds employee trying to shift discontinued stock. So everybody has opinions now matter how outlandish they obviously are!

Shitting hell that's massive! Extraordinary that a show that is on air every night is adding over 2m on timeshift. You kind of think why bother when the next one is on the following night.
Thanks Cylon. ![]() |

I think IAC will struggle to hit 7m tonight, but looking at that 14th November timeshift, I'm sure many will catch up tomorrow morning!
