That's disappointing. After the good overnight and AI last week i thought we would be getting over 7m finals till the end of the series... This episode could still get to 7m, but it's looking a long shot atm imho.

Worth pointing out, the episode started a couple of minutes early and finished 4 minutes early so those final five minutes where people had switched off will drag the average up considerably.

Those final five minutes will already have been taking off the overnights with tapechecking, and it only started one minute early.
I think what really affected it was the gap between it starting and Strictly finishing. Strictly has been under running this year, apart from last week which finished on time (which just happened to be when Doctor Who rose), so there's been a good few minutes of promos before DW starts allowing the casual audience to get away. Another thing that could have helped last week compared to this week is that X Factor had already been on for an hour last week, therefore some Strictly viewers who would have normally turned to X Factor stuck with Doctor Who instead starting X Factor half way through. |

I can't tell who's being sarcastic/trolling and who isn't anymore!
We should be using labels or something! |

I still don't understand where the 4.60 figure came from. I understand about tapechecking, but that doesn't happen until later next week doesn't it? And why didn't the Doctor Who news page (www.doctorwhonews.net) among others, report that figure?

![]() Web iPlayer stats are released seperately at the end of the month. So far we only have Deep Breath's numbers - 2.06m hits. Unique viewers for episode 1 are likely in the 10 million area. BARB keep saying that they're going to start including all of iPlayer, but it's slow going. |

A slight dip in the overnights. I think the show is beginning to see the impact of the X-Factor live shows.
Still, it is getting good viewing figures over all and is actually offering viewers a genuine choice at the time of the evening too. |

I still hold with the theory that it would do better being shown before SCD [Take a look at the overnights for Pointless] Plus this mild weather we are having atm [Here in the South at least] That imho impacts on the overnights... A cold spell and those overnights will be well over 5m imho. |

I know in this day & age there are loads of ways to catch up but by having it on so late they're missing out on the young audience. My 9 year old is a massive DW fan but 3 weeks in a row now she's gone to bed 10 or 15 minutes before the show has finished as she can't keep her eyes open.
I'm old enough to have grown up watching the end of Tom Baker's run and the whole of the Peter Davison era on a Saturday tea-time but back then if the show had been on around 8:30pm I doubt I would ever have started watching it and that could be a future problem for the show in years to come. If young kids aren't into the show now because it's on too late are they going to watch it when they grow up? |

Through TV, yes - on the web and elsewhere, they do not.

Some websites don't have access to tapechecked ratings, Doctor Who News must be one of them. |

Tapechecking to the nearest 5 minutes is done with the overnights, so if something is meant to start 20:20 but actually starts at 20:23 the first 5 minutes are taking off the rating as it's closer to 20:25 than 20:20. Tapechecking to the nearest minute (possibly second, I'm not sure) doesn't happen until the official ratings.
Some websites don't have access to tapechecked ratings, Doctor Who News must be one of them. so doctorwhonews.net and doctorwhotv.co.uk have 4.55 and this thread and the independent have 4.60 (Shrugs) Ok! |

The answer to that is zero - they don't double count in that way. The only people who think they do are those who seem to want to suggest that ratings are declining and the show is somehow 'in trouble'.
Nothing sophisticated or scientific about ratings count, all basically guesstimates based on what 5000 homes with little boxes do. |
