Overnights.tv @overnightstv now3 seconds ago
#GBBO was back with 10.4m/47.5% - up on last year's launch figure of 9.3m/43.2% @LoveProdHouse @PaulHollywood http://www.overnights.tv Peaked at 11.2m. Amazing numbers! I remember when it would have been wall to wall repeats and movie fillers every night. Now the biggest show on telly launches there. Wonder why they don't hold it back a fortnight and pull even more though? |

The last thing I saw was from June and Paul and Mary said they wouldnt continue with GBBO if it left the BBC. I assume Mel and Sue wouldnt either. So technically the GBBO we have now would end anyway if it was stolen from the beeb.

Stonking rating for Bake Off, wouldn't surprise me if this is the most successful series, there seems to be a good mix of contestants. Of course, the Daily Heil is already trying to knock it down with various articles about the private lives of contestants.

Money talks and I suspect they'd all be back. They'd be foolish to walk away. Particularly Mel & Sue as it's not like they've got any other particularly big gigs (not for lack of trying in Mel's case). I think it's very, very unlikely to leave the BBC so I wouldn't worry, but I remember will.i.am saying he wouldn't move to ITV and now he has. It won't move to ITV, but if it did I suspect the talent would follow.

Wow - impressive.
I wonder if this will be bittersweet for the BBC? It's gone all suspiciously quiet on the negotiations front. |

TVUK was a bit different though. The Beeb was getting bad press for airing a very commercial show and ITV bought the production company. GBBO is a quintessentially BBC show, and maybe its makers respect that also even if ITV did offer big money?

This is all incredibly unlikely though as I'm 99% sure it'll stay on BBC1 and so it should. |

Well, all 4 presenters/judges have stated that they would not leave the BBC should the programme move to another broadcaster, so it might actually be a bittersweet moment for any other broadcaster should they gain the rights to the programme but lose the main people who help make it what it is.
The contract negotiations will take some time as unlike The Voice, there is a number of spin offs in the Love productions contract too. GBBO, Comic relief GBBO, Masterclass (this year being replaced by 2 Christmas specials) the kids version, the professional series on BBC 2, the pottery showdown and Sewing Bee. It's a massive contract. |

That's very true. Had it been flung out on ITV1, it quite possibly would have been summer filler and then quietly dropped after a series or maybe two. I don't think anyone but the BBC could have built a show like Bake Off to what it is now. Although I have to say there must have a fair bit of fairy dust involved -I still cant understand this level of success.
We have other colleagues in our office who watch with their teenage children and others who have older parents who watch. |

More importantly there is a 16 month clause in the contract meaning that it wouldn't be able to air on another network until 2018.

I love these stats. Of course the first 4 series were on BBC 2 but even so, amazing how much it has grown.
GBBO Series Openers: 2010 - 2.03m (9.1%) 2011 - 2.79m (12.7%) 2012 - 3.46m (16.7%) 2013 - 5.60m (26.4%) 2014 - 7.18m (34.6%) 2015 - 9.30m (43.0%) 2016 - 10.44m (47.5%) |

Sensational for Bake Off, just when you think it couldn't possibly pull any viewers it ends up on last year- Insane and easily the biggest ratings success story for many years

It would have been concerning were it not the highest launch ever, considering the number it finished on in 2015.
We shall see where it stabilises in comparison to the 2015 series. |

Doesn't it defeat the whole idea of independent producers if, as soon as they have a successful programme on one channel they try to sell it to another ? I wouldn't have thought much work would be going their way from the BBC.

Yes. I fail to understand why an independent producer would want to diminish its reputation and its programmes just so it can "sell" to someone else for more bucks even if that transaction meant destroying or at least undermining, your brand.
