We've decided to trial a prediction game for overnight TV ratings in a similar style to the one which appears for the charts forum. There are 10 programmes to predict - with ratings given to two decimal places. The correct ratings for the purpose of this game are those provided by Digital Spy (i.e. tape-checked but not including +1 figures). You'll receive 10 Points for a perfect prediction, and 9 Points if you are 100k out, 8 points if you are 200k etc. until you reach 1 Point for 1m out.
For example, if Death In Paradise rated 6.66m - this rounds to 6.7m. If you predicted any number which rounds to 6.7 (i.e. 6.66-6.74m), you would receive 10 points. If you predicted rounds to 6.8 or 6.6 you receive 9 points etc. until 7.6 and 5.8, which would receive 1 point. If you get an exact prediction to two decimal places, you receive a bonus 2 points in addition to the regular points. For example if you predicted 6.66m you would receive 12 points. I hope that hasn't confused anyone! Much more straight forward, there are two bonus questions which could earn you 5 points for each correct question. ---- 10 programmes to predict this week Match of the Day Live [Monday at 7:30pm]: X.XXm viewers Waterloo Road [Monday at 8:30pm + 11:15pm]: X.XXm viewers [predict the combined BBC Three and BBC One figure] Masterchef [Tuesday at 9pm]: X.XXm viewers DCI Banks [Wednesday at 9pm]: X.XXm viewers The Great British Sewing Bee [Thursday at 8pm]: X.XXm viewers EastEnders [Thursday at 8pm]: X.XXm viewers Comic Relief [Friday at 7pm]: X.XXm viewers You're Back In The Room [Saturday at 8:20pm]: X.XXm viewers The Voice UK [Sunday at 7:45pm]: X.XXm viewers Dragon's Den [Sunday at 9pm]: X.XXm viewers Bonus Questions Note: Call The Midwife ends tonight 1. Which will be the highest rating programme of the week? 2. Will Coronation Street receive its lower ever overnight rating (excluding +1) this week? ---- You have until Tuesday morning at 9am to post your predictions |

Out of interest, what is Corrie's lowest ever overnight rating? And presumably you're referring to its clash with Match of the Day?

I suppose the 5.5m figure I had in mind may be its lowest cumulative rating. |

Match of the Day Live [Monday at 7:30pm]: 5.69m viewers Waterloo Road [Monday at 8:30pm + 11:15pm]: 1.58m viewers [predict the combined BBC Three and BBC One figure] Masterchef [Tuesday at 9pm]: 4.10m viewers DCI Banks [Wednesday at 9pm]: 3.91m viewers The Great British Sewing Bee [Thursday at 8pm]: 2.53m viewers EastEnders [Thursday at 8pm]: 6.92m viewers Comic Relief [Friday at 7pm]: 9.29m viewers You're Back In The Room [Saturday at 8:20pm]: 3.54m viewers The Voice UK [Sunday at 7:45pm]: 6.88m viewers Dragon's Den [Sunday at 9pm]: 2.68m viewers Bonus Questions 1. Which will be the highest rating programme of the week? Comic Relief 2. Will Coronation Street receive its lower ever overnight rating (excluding +1) this week? No Surprisingly, in 2011 and 2013 when Corrie clashed with Comic Relief, its ratings remained above 7 million, so I doubt it will do as bad as sub-5m this year. |
