Wow- look at The Yorkshire Vet. It had absolutely no right at all to hold up that well against the Royal Variety which on paper at least seemed guaranteed to do some damage. But no, it was strong enough to overcome it. This is becoming a firm favourite of a lot of viewers now and should have its episode order increased for 2017.
New Lives on the other hand has probably peaked. Still great television but hasn't quite captured the audiences they might have hoped for this time around. That said, perhaps some of the stories weren't as compelling as some of those featured in earlier series.




. I imagine it's temporary though as nothing's changed
