January 4, 20169 yr Author The finale of Downton Abbey, shown on Christmas Day, has set a new ratings record by adding a massive 4 million viewers in the consolidated ratings! This means it has increased from 6.9m to 10.9m.
January 4, 20169 yr I saw that too! :o It does include +1 ratings but I'm sure the consolidated ratings are still over 10m! Edit: Yep, BARB confirm that it managed 8.52m on ITV and 1.96m on ITV HD, giving it overall ratings of 10.48m!

January 6, 20169 yr Author So pleased that Doctor Who managed to get Top 10 for the week! Very impressive for the week overall with perhaps the biggest shock being Stick Man. :o
January 6, 20169 yr So, despite ITV getting the #1 Christmas programme for the first time in so many years, the BBC still dominated. All very respectable ratings too, given the overnights.
January 6, 20169 yr The finale of Downton Abbey, shown on Christmas Day, has set a new ratings record by adding a massive 4 million viewers in the consolidated ratings! This means it has increased from 6.9m to 10.9m. It makes sense. Why spend two hours watching a programme when you can watch it later in 90 minutes?
January 7, 20169 yr Holy cow at Stick Man! :o Did not see that one coming! I recorded a repeat so that I could see what had charmed my niece so much. I thought the "I'm not a bat. I'm not a flagpole" etc. parts were rather reminiscent of Dr Seuss's Green Eggs And Ham - "I do not like them on a train, I do not like them in the rain".
January 9, 20169 yr The Top 10 most requested programmes on BBC iPlayer from over Christmas have been revealed: The top ten most requested episodes: EastEnders, December 25 - 1,459,300The Apprentice, series 11 final - 1,306,500EastEnders, December 26 - 1,275,400EastEnders, December 29 - 1,053,900EastEnders, December 24 - 1,051,300EastEnders, December 28 - 975,200Mrs Brown's Boys, Christmas specials - 969,200Luther, series 4 episode 2 - 934,500And Then There Were None, episode 1 - 886,500EastEnders, December 21 - 871,800 So, adding the 7-day figures and the iPlayer requests together, roughly 9.13m watched Eastenders on Christmas Day, 8.7m watched The Apprentice Final, 10.46m watched Mrs Brown's Boys, 7.45m watched the second Luther and 9.5m watched And Then There Were None. Just goes to show that the likes of Eastenders are still hugely dominant, just people's viewing habits are significantly changing.
January 10, 20169 yr I can't recall ever coming across someone who likes Mrs Brown's Boys, yet it always attracts huge audiences. Does anyone here watch it?
January 10, 20169 yr I can't recall ever coming across someone who likes Mrs Brown's Boys, yet it always attracts huge audiences. Does anyone here watch it? SAME tho I'd be too embarrassed to admit it too
January 10, 20169 yr I can't recall ever coming across someone who likes Mrs Brown's Boys, yet it always attracts huge audiences. Does anyone here watch it? Same, I only know one person who loves it! (though they are completely and utterly obsessed on it though :drama: ) I still don't get how anyone can like it, so unfunny and awful :(
January 10, 20169 yr I watch it, I don't get the hate for it? I don't love it but it's light humour, a little getaway and it is funny in places. I think the neighbour Winnie is the funniest character, the one liners she has are the best part about the show.
January 10, 20169 yr It gets so much hate because it's lazy, panders to the lowest common denominator and is usually on the wrong side of patronising and offensive.
January 10, 20169 yr It's like When The Whistle Blows on Extras - except not intentionally bad (or maybe it is?)
January 10, 20169 yr It's a slapstick comedy featuring a man dressed as an old woman. What exactly may you be expecting from a show with such a premise? Some clever jokes about politics? A side of world affairs? It wouldn't work. It isn't influential in any way, nobody takes it seriously (the cast often break the third wall to laugh at how bad the joke they're telling is). It's a bit of harmless fun that's clearly enjoyed by many. Fair enough if you don't like it, but just because it doesn't cater to your comedic needs doesn't mean it panders to the lowest common denominator.
January 10, 20169 yr Author (the cast often break the third wall to laugh at how bad the joke they're telling is) This is one of the main reasons I dislike it, it's so off-putting and I would rather watch something that has more thought and care put into it, such as Catastrophe a comedy which is drastically overlooked.
