As far as I'm concerned it is on at 10pm as nearly every day I've watched it on ch4+1. The only time of year that i watch the plus 1 chanels is during BB.
They said that BB won out over the brothers and sisters incest program on ITV but then they dont take into account the people who are now going to download it and watch it off the itv catch up which is exactly what I was intending on doing.
These days what with time shift channels, everything repeated numerous times in 24 hours, and also then bbc/itv and ch4 having alot of their programs available off the internet the people who watch the program first time round when it's broadcast except for something live like a final or sport doesn't really count.

I don't think neighbours would even be on. It always had a break when the euro or world cup was on

I would rather have Neighbours off air for 2 weeks than see the ratings this bad.

Are you Roscoe Barnes?

There are 2 of us.

Why do you have the same name?

Because they registered with the same name. There's an old saying: Beautiful mind think alike.

Right then, so...:

21:00 - 21:30 Average: 1.48m
21:30 - 22:00 Average: 2.11m

Splitting it down even further....

21:00 - 21:15 Average: 1.43m
21:15 - 21:30 Average: 1.53m
21:30 - 21:45 Average: 1.93m
21:45 - 22:00 Average: 2.29m

I'd love to see the 1 minute ratings from 21:30 to 21:35 to see how many extra viewers tuned in each minute. And yes, I think the footie is hurting BB, and as it gets to the latter stages, it will continue to hurt BB.

NOYB

I don't get this weird mindset of (mostly) older people who only watch BBC One or ITV1 and never watch BBC Two, Channel 4 or Five. Shows that transferred from BBC Two to BBC One often see a ratings increase even though nothing's been altered while a show that transfers to a smaller channel always loses ratings.

I think that once Digital Switchover occurs and when these older people pass on in the next ten-twenty years, we could see the smaller terrestrial channels on an equal playing field as BBC One and ITV1.

Um, okay thanks for that silly acronym. :yawn:

The original Roscoe signed up yonks before you, I don't understand. Seems a stupid move to me, unless your name is ACTUALLY Roscoe Barnes.

Im in love with the real Rosoce.

For those who don't know 'Roscoe Barnes' is actually a famous baseball player from the 19th century. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roscoe_Barnes

This man clearly inspired so many lives, and the two roscoe's we have here

Lmao.

I actually think the 2nd roscoeBarnes has some kind of problem with the 1st Roscoe Barnes, so signed up as roscoeBarnes to cause friction. I think it's related to soap ratings.

Deary me. If people want to argue and cause friction over ratings they should really get out more

simply not true. I have no problems with anyone.

I agree - I think when Doctor Who returns proper in 2010 it should begin a week after its 2009 Christmas Special. In the first few months of the year it could easily get 9-11 million every Saturday night.

God the Ratings Thread is really alive at the moment too - I'm always surprised/impressed by how many posts/pages there are at the moment.

So why do you have virtually the same username as someone else?

Is your name Roscoe Barnes? I don't think so.

Good going for The Two Ronnies Sketchbook. Perhaps the BBC might repeat the whole series this time, rather than just the first three episodes!

I actually didnt know the name Ross orginated from Roscoe.

Sounds Jewish.

For goodness sake, this is getting annoying

Well perhaps explain why your name is the same as another established poster's then!

Apparently Roscoe means: "From The Deer Forest"

The origin of the name Roscoe is Scandinavian.

How does one change thier username, as this is appalling.

Go here: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/contact/...act_type=forum

And ask for a username request.

Well done. rzt has explained above.

Now no one will be confused.
