EastEnders holding up very well. I really hope that they can continue rating like this for next few weeks as it looks set to be a great time for the show quality wise.

Hmm not sure why the winter series has suddenly dropped around a million viewers for the launch in 2 years. I think this series will rate similar to the last winter series overall.
It will do like a summer series I agree. It's not a real series. I'm not expecting 2m+ per episode. More like 1.7mish

What if C5 got it's act together with sister Viacom channel Logo and launched RuPaul's Drag Race: UK That would be a massive risk. But I would love to see it happen.

Run it for 8-12 weeks at Friday's 9-10 and air Untucked at 10:30-11 and have a companion chat show Spilling the Tea each Tuesday/Wednesday at 9-10.

It could be a smash for them.
I like Drag Race but I think it's very Niche and even though it's logos biggest show it only pulls around 0.5-1million viewers. Netflix helped expose it a bit but I don't think a UK audience would be that interested. If they'd have struck when the iron was hot and it was getting loads of celeb endorsements/press coverage a few years ago it might have done well but I feel they've missed the boat somewhat (Michelle also wasn't as popular on CBB as they might have hoped either)

EE is back! And it was a stellar episode last night. ITV once again waving the flag on a Tuesday. This practice needs to be stopped. What is wrong with competition?

What do you suggest they put there? And BBC One frequently wave the flag as well.

BBC2 became #Revolting at 10pm, and the new satirical comedy sketch show drew 786.3k/4.5% @HatTrickProd @JolyonRubs http://www.overnights.tv
I smiled once. Otherwise stoney faced.

I thought The Revolution Will Be Televised quite funny and clever. This wasn't. Odd they changed the title on the move to BBC2 - it was the same show so far as I could tell.

In ratings terms at least, he certainly was on a desert island.

Thanks Ray.

BBC2 doing well from 7.00-10.00pm. Wouldn't be surprised if Great British Railway Journeys was getting around 1.5m at 6.30pm too. They get good value from these natural history programmes as well. Channel 4 did okay. Big Brother is down bit it's still a good figure for Channel 5.

I'm guessing the match hit C4 and C5 a bit. 1m on Sky Sports. And obviously Silent Witness too which did well!
How to Lose weight Well did as expected at around 2m including +1. 24 hours in A&E obviously hit a bit. And as I said half a million down for CBB from last January but still miles ahead of the rest so they'll take comfort in that.

EE holding onto a good rating there. Seems so far that the storyline has helped. After a bad NYD rating it's recovered in the 2 episodes following!

So far so good for EE, the next few episodes are the interesting ones.
Nice little knock-on boost for Holby, tastly sandwich position.
Silent Witness up 700k showing the damage Halcyon did to it. You'd think it'd be close to 6m next Monday as people opt to tape the Halcyon instead.

I wonder what Tipping Point could get at 5pm, itv have those two hours on lockdown now. I hope they give Tenable an extended run at 3pm, that's the most playable afternoon quiz that I've seen and would be an intriguing 3-hour test for BBC1.
PoG did well, even a best-of show (ahem) can pass 3m. A normal series could draw 3.5m in the 8pm hour.
Robson Crusoe was a nice little programme, better than those awful 'follow the cops around town' that TV loves.

Big Brother is still going, that in itself amazes me. Credit where it's due.

Probably 1.2m watched Arsenal and more might watch tonight's big match.

Drama repeats or new programming. Give things a chance. BBC1 should be showing BBC3 stuff. It feels as if TV channels are run by careerists with no clue what people want.

So you think drama repeats would be better than what they put out last night (largely new programming)? BBC1 do show BBC3 stuff - post-news as I highly doubt a lot of it would do well in primetime.

BIB: Do you know what people want?

Brilliant to see the ratings for EastEnders staying high. The new exec is working wonders on making everything feel so raw and real. Been a long time since EastEnders actually felt like EastEnders so his new, slash old, approach is working thus far.

Ray, slightly strange request but do your archives give an indication of when news programmes became so dominant? I can't imagine ˝ the top10 were news shows in the 70s, 80s or 90s. I wonder when roughly they started to rate so well relatively well.

My hunch is that as younger viewers have drifted to streaming, sky and mobile - news has held its viewers thanks to its older demographic. I'd love to see a demo breakdown of the news!

Another healthy rating for EastEnders. Holby did well vs recent standards and Silent Witness up on Monday's rating. ITV's daytime doing really well and decent for Emmerdale. For Tuesday's standards that's not too bad for Paul O Grady (wasn't it a compilation show). Not good for Robson Crusoe.

OK for Celebrity Big Brother but a bit down on previous launches.

Tipping Point was on at around 5.00pm on Monday and had 2.85m. Impossible is better than Tenable in my opinion, that could work later in the day.

I was never going to watch Robson Crusoe or Paul O'Grady's sick/homeless dogs of the week. Both might have fared better on Wednesday with less competition.

Just from memory, ITV's News at Ten used to be in the weekly Top 20 quite a lot, and the 5.45 got big audiences too. Some of ITV's local news programmes would often be in the regional top 10s. So I think it's quite likely that the news would have been in the daily top 10s just as now.

yeah...I watched this on +1. I like Grantchester so watched RG in this. In fact there were more cameramen and doctors than viewers watching on that 'desert' island! You can't kid me that RG put all the huts and chicken coops together himself. And where did that extremely long pole come from to get the coconuts down with??

I think the live feed for Big Brother is good though tonight. I think it'll be a good one.
Half of them have been on before and forgotten about. The other half I don't even recognise! RUNNING OUT OF NAMES, C5?
