what happened to all those millions of viewers who were going to stop watching after hating last weeks episode so much
I am surprised a little by the increase, thought it might be very slightly down with the 6pm start, but I think possibly offset by the wider interest due to the ice warriors ![]() Thankfully, I was proved wrong!

I thought it would lose viewers. (fail!) I just had a vibe that people were getting fed up with the second part of this series.
Thankfully, I was proved wrong! ![]() ![]() It's not an episode i will be in a rush to watch again, but it does seem to have been relatively well received outside of fandom, if not quite as well as most episodes are. Interestingly, my niece and my sister both really enjoyed it, my niece in particular was quite engrossed with it, though possibly because as a six year old she found the little girl in it very relatable. And my sister likes the emotional episodes the best, lol! |

i think the AI of 84 should have reassured you on that point, sometimes we can all become a bit insular on this forum and assume we are in tune with the wider audience when often times we are not

Does anyone else always smile when we take about "timeshifted" ratings??

![]() What's interesting is that including on the night timeshifting, this episode practically got half of its viewership by people catching it later. That's why DW may well benefit from a lead in from other shows but isn't the greatest lead in FOR other shows. |

I don't have the exact data to hand as I am out and about, but pretty sure it was closing time, with around 4.5 million up against an England world cup match. lowest final ratings remain for either the impossible planet or the Saten pit ( can't remember which) with around 6 million. |

Yes I was thinking post 2005. The impossible planet only rated around six million in the finals! Hmm. And I did think closing time had gone below five million. Thanks

![]() I assume it was a scorching day or something, because DW still had an overnight share of 32.5% and 6.5 million won the night. |

2. The Snowmen - 2.28m 3. Bells of Saint Johns - 2.26m and to conclusively answer the lowest final ratings question: 6.08m - The Satan Pit 6.27m - Silence in the Library 6.32m - The Impossible Planet Then The Hungry Earth and The Lodger as mentioned above.

The Impossible Astronaut is in second place, going from 4.75m live to 8.86m (a shift of 4.11m). |

The Snowmen is actually the biggest timeshift for any TV broadcast ever. It went from 5.74m live to 9.87m. Of course a large amount of that 4.13m shift was part of the VOSDAL figure. But it's The Snowmen that technically holds the record for all television.

whilst it is fascinating to see just how many people watch Doctor Who on the day but outside of it's timeslot, anyone that does view the show "on the day" is counted in the overnights, therefore the actually timeshift is officially as I mention above.
The technical definition of timeshift DOES include the VOSDAL figure, so the real timeshift for - say - The Snowmen is over 4 million, not just 2 million or so. But I am being a pedant, admittedly! :P |
