Emmerdale: most popular soap on thursdays
From the latest official BARB consolidated viewing figures Emmerdale has been the number 1 soap on thursday nights for two weeks running.
W/E: 7/8/05 Emmerdale: 8.24 million EastEnders: 7.98 million W/E: 31/7/05 Emmerdale: 8.53 million EastEnders: 8.37 million BARB Its a close fight for second place. This would have been unthinkable a couple of years ago

I hate how soaps are defined by ratings and must have a placing in a chart of favouritism. Big ratings doesn't mean it's a good programme, I mean, look at the cricket's ratings...
If you asked each person in the country which soap they prefer at the moment, I can guarantee Emmerdale wouldn't come top - or even close. Family Affairs get's ratings of just over a million, it doesn't mean it's any worse than the other 4 but unfortunately we live in a world where the television companies only care about ratings and that's why this brilliant soap got the chop - they fail to notice that none of their other shows get much higher ratings either... |

This is mainly because BBC1 Thursday nights are very weak whereas ITV1 has The Bill and Emmerdale.
Its also very likely that corrie helps EE get higher rating than Emmerdale on Monday and Friday. And on Tuesday BBC1 has a stronger line-up than ITV1 so more people tune in to BBC1. |
