Which equals a larger floating audience to inherit in the last hour.
Everything down on last week - I wonder where the viewers went? First Christmas parties of the year? |

Oh please. I'm allowed to disagree, this thread & forum is about discussion after all. Disagreeing =/= 'jumping on' somebody.
Run back to your safe space if you need to then, like you often do. |

Well the bonus MM has at present is leading out of SCD. If you don't watch TXF, then BBC1 is really the best option. On Christmas Eve it will have Pointless on beforehand ( oh how exciting - on every day, on every weekend and still makes it to Christmas Eve), so it'll be intereting to see whether its boost this series will continue without SCD.
The Spider Man film (I prefer the previous too) did not much last year (1st one), and I expect will do 3-4m on Christmas Eve. BBC1 shouldn't have many problems pulling in the older viewers here, because they are hardly likely to watch Spider Man. |

To be fair, I'm not sure if The X Factor can be dismissed as a poor figure - though it is - without considering that everything was down on last week. Indeed, The X Factor had a longer running time, therefore potentially losing some of it's younger audience, and I'm A Celebrity a later starting time (same as above) which may be valid excuses for decreasing figures. Strictly had a later start, which negates the excuse of it 'starting too early' and McIntyre's slot didn't change at all so why they are down is a slight mystery.
As I said, The X Factor's figure is poor and the Strictly/McIntyre combination did well, but I can see more valid reasons for the ITV shows to be down than BBC One's. As an aside, people may criticise Meet the Parent's figure compared to Tipping Point but the latter didn't have to air against any of Strictly last night. It wouldn't have rated as well as that if it had - albeit no doubt better than Meet the Parents! |

From rzt:
Saturday 26 November 2016 Ratings Roundup BBC 1 18:10: Pointless - 4.58m (24.8%) 19:00: Strictly Come Dancing - 10.21m (47.6%) * peak - 11.53m (49.6%) at 20:00 20:10: Michael McIntyre's Big Show - 5.78m (27.3%) * peak - 6.42m (29.8%) at 20:55 21:10: Casualty - 4.24m (20.6%) 22:00: The National Lottery Draws - 2.69m (13.8%) 22:10: BBC News - 2.97m (15.5%) ITV (inc. +1) 18:00: Tipping Point - 2.71m (14.96%) 19:00: Meet The Parents - 1.58m (7.4%) 20:00: The X Factor - 5.67m (26.7%) * peak - 6.62m (31.4%) at 21:10 21:50: I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! - 7.36m (38.7%) * peak - 8.15m (41.6%) at 22:15 22:50: ITV News and Weather - 2.69m (19.4%) And let the arguments commence. X Factor dire as usual. Strictly solid and is exactly the same as last year. I'm a Celebrity, I think, was dented due to the late start (9.50 was very late). Meet the Parents is the flop of the year regardless of any demos it gets. SCD consistent around the 10m mark, great share but I thought it might get close to 11m like Sunday's Pointless consistent - people don't care it is a repeat because most won't realise. Quite why this offends people I don't know. MM down on the week but still doing well. Casualty has the 4.2m Holby has. Tipping Point getting duffed up by Pointless - this idea that TP or the Chase are key shows for itv is exaggerated. MTP losing 400k is bad. XF got the same as last week probably. It started 5 minutes earlier so the time check from last week said 5.9m at that start time. It peaked in its normal time and then fell back in the extended time. It'll consolidate to its usual 6.6m. 39% share for IAC is consistent with other episodes. It'll consolidate to its usual level. Last night was a great night of LE TV. Many will be catching up on it today. A little surprised the night was down seemingly last night but then it is the end of the month. |

Please be very very very careful on any filmed results as we do not want to spoil it for the 11 million who watch.
I know it hasn't so far, but hints can develop. BTW IMHO, Britains Got Talent and Strictly Come Dancing are the joint most successful LE show, on consistency. I did say arguably. If you go by averages, IAC, SCD and BGT match XF. But then so does GBBO on BBC1. But if you go by totality, they aren't even close. It's rather like saying EE is as successful as Corrie. On averages, it is. But... Like I said - arguably. |

![]() IAC on too late and XF not so good. Really think it's been let down by such poor acts this series. Total lack of quality. Saara is the best but will no doubt go before the final. Any of the five can make the final and any of four can win it. BTW - I wonder how much ITV make from the XF and IAC apps. It still surprises me that they encourage people to not pay to vote. SCD still pushed the phone voting rather than their website voting as you'd expect. |

Much better looking schedule, time to stop prioritising X Factor. X Factor down nearly 1m year on year.

A Pointless Celebrities repeat getting 4.5m, the ultimate default viewing.
Unlike the daily shows, you are much more likely to have already seen the celebrity repeats before,as they always air in the same once a week slot. What's funny is that if those default viewers had looked elsewhere, they would have seen Len Goodman was one of the celebs on Tipping Point Lucky Stars last night. The BBC are abusing their unassailable position airing repeats on a November Saturday night. On another point, Coming up with alternative schedules is pointless as nobody knows what the shows would have done in other time slots, the competition is a big effect which people constantly ignore. |

As an aside, I'm A Celebrity skipping an elimination yesterday means they'll either have a four person final or a double elimination somewhere down the line across the week. From what I can recall neither Ant or Dec mentioned a double tonight but I can't see them going with a four person final. If I'm right this means the double will air during the week - I'd assume either against The Missing finale or The Apprentice?

Any of the five can make the final and any of four can win it. . Based on results so far only Matt and 5, I think, have not been in the bottom 3 whereas all the others have. If they avoid it tonight then I suspect they are nailed on for the final baring a really bad performance. Think they judges would put either thru anyway. |

ITV would be criticised in the press and on here for causing an unnecessary clash and then mocked for losing the clash they created. |

Surprised TXF didn't break 6 million this week, two weeks before the final. ITV may as well just stick it on at 7pm now, as IAC is the priority and starting it at 9.50pm is just ridiculous.
Quote:
No worries. But yes it will likely break 6m on the SCD final night. In fact in that sandwich it'll probably push 7m.ITV are not showing anything other than films (male skewing) so most viewers will likely stay on BBC1. Quote:
Didn't the 1st part of the final last year get under 6 million and then the Sunday live final get 8 million?
I think the exact same will happen this year, whilst the live ratings are not the highest, people are still talking about TXF and know the contestants' names so are clearly watching it somehow. I think the Sunday final episode will easily get 8m+ in 2 weeks. Quote:
Shiny-floor LE should be priority on Saturday nights, XF can and should rightfully stay at 8pm. Simon Cowell is very important for ITV's ratings, market share and profits so he should receive scheduling respect despite XF putting in a low number last night.

Delighted at that Michael McIntyre rating, it's something different for Saturday nights with one of Britain's best stand-up comedians and I've really enjoyed it.
IAC being down doesn't surprise me too much, it's just not been as good this year. The late start obviously didn't help either. |
