It's a shame though that the best of the 4 new-who series so far had to suffer a significant drop in ratings for the bbc to realise it's importance.

I think the audience share has always been good, though, and I think the BBC will realise that of the available audience, more than a third tune in to Doctor Who.
I do think the people who schedule these things should have had far more press attention than they did over this decision - moving I'd Do Anything to a prime time slot has been a ratings disaster. It didn't gain any extra viewers for that show, but did lose viewers for Who as RTD predicted. |

I would think if they are going to shift Doctor Who, it would probably be more likely to move to a January-March run, rather than a September-December one. The schedules on BBC and ITV are packed in the autumn with Strictly and X-Factor in such a way that trying to schedule Doctor Who without clashing would be a nightmare.
Much better to move to Saturday nights January-March, which has been now been vacated by Dancing on Ice. Doctor Who would have a free run, in the dark, off the back of a much-hyped Christmas special. This would surely be the best option.

The AI for The Unicorn and the Wasp was 86. Another good result, especially for an episode some have dubbed 'marmite'. Clearly not so much with the wider audience....

Hmm... worst of the year, the honeymoon is over.
![]() ![]() ![]() Seriously though, the AI's this series have been amazing...86-88 throughout. I do think we might see a 90 before the series is out, which would be amazing...

Because of the way that the AIs are calculated, from 88 to 90 is actually a bigger jump than going from 86 to 88. It would be nice to see it happen though.

Final figures for "The Doctor's Daughter" are in, and it finished up with 7.33 million.
That puts it in 10th place for the week by individual episode and 4th by series. |

Two soaps and Britain's Got Talent. DW easily beat every episode of Emmerdale.

But it hasn't actually, DS.....overall I think you'll find when the final figures for episode six come in that the first six episodes of this series have, overall, had higher figures than the first six episodes of series 3. It was really only the two-parter where the figures were really down, and even then it was only the second part which was hugely down on the norm. The point is more that the average could have been considerably higher than it was had it not had the early slot....

Yes they're higher than usual, but they could have been a lot higher in the 7pm slot.

Possibly it would have done, but given the show has still thus far performed more strongly than this time last year, I don't think we can complain too much...

Given The Apprentice managed to perform strongly against BGT when it wasn't even in it's normal slot, I think we have reason to be cautiously optimistic....
![]() Was it BGT's normal slot? Perhaps even more caution is advisable! |

The BGT final is Saturday up against SITL, as you should know, Mr. Slug!
I'm more impressed that Indy got 7.53 million! Wow! |
