Highest overnight of the year so far for BGT's second episode (and up almost 1 million from last week) - 9.91m (46.1%) / 10.32m (48.2%)

 

Michael McIntyre didn't do too badly with his new show either: 4.88m (27.1%)

The finale to The Night Manager was just short of 10m on the 28-data rating figures. Ratings for the whole series are as follows:

 

Over 7-Day 28-Day Share0Date

6.14 008.25 010.18 026.2 00Sunday 21st February

6.25 008.42 010.19 028.8 00Sunday 28th February

6.19 008.11 009.74 027.9 00Sunday 6th March

6.01 008.06 009.61 027.2 00Sunday 13th March

6.24 008.56 009.67 027.8 00Sunday 20th March

6.61 009.12 009.90 028.0 00Sunday 27th March

 

That's an average of 6.24m on the overnights, 8.42m on the 7-day and 9.88m for the 28-day - for the latter, the only series this year to average higher was Call the Midwife with 10.53m.

  • 3 weeks later...
6.90m (37%) for Peggy's death last night on EastEnders. I was hoping it would be over 7m, however, that's the highest figure since that Claudette's "death" in March and ratings are generally very low atm so I expected it to "only" be around 7m. Also it's important to note that 37% share is the highest since Anniversary week last year! I'm sure this will timeshift to over 8m too.
I was trying not to have any expectations for the rating but I'm pleased with 6.9m and especially that 37% share. Would have been nice to get over 7m (I assume it would have done if it was a 30 minute episode) but an 8m peak is excellent! Programmes usually time-shift to a figure similar to their overnight peak, so I hope it's close to 8m too.

Eastenders got their best Monday rating that clashed with BGT:

 

5.71m | 26.1% | Monday 23rd May 2016

5.56m | 21.7% | Monday 07th May 2012

5.20m | 19.2% | Monday 30th May 2011

5.10m | 22.7% | Monday 25th May 2015

5.10m | 22.3% | Monday 26th May 2014

5.07m | 19.5% | Monday 31st May 2010

 

There was no episode of Eastenders on Monday 27th May 2013.

 

Meanwhile, Corrie got their worst Monday rating to follow BGT:

 

10.42m | 39.4% | Monday 30th May 2011

10.17m | 40.3% | Monday 31st May 2010

09.47m | 36.2% | Monday 27th May 2013

08.70m | 33.2% | Monday 07th May 2012

08.67m | 36.2% | Monday 26th May 2014

07.73m | 33.2% | Monday 25th May 2015

 

7.16m watched last night, but that includes +1, so 6.8m or 6.9m without.

  • 2 weeks later...
BARB have listed some new data - you can now see the Top 10 programmes from ITV that includes standard and HD (named ITV Total SDHD) or standard, HD and +1 (named ITV Total). Been a long time coming!
  • 4 weeks later...

Been a bit quiet on this thread. For those interested in such things both EastEnders and Corrie have hit all time low overnights in the past week! :o

 

Soaps definitely suffering more than usual this Summer!

So nice to see Eastenders make it over 7m again after some ghastly figures over this summer of sport.

 

This regards the overnights, but BBC 2 got a stonking rating of 6.9m for the Olympics coverage last night! FYI, the highest official, combined figure for BBC 2 (of the 21st century) is 9.45m for the 2013 final of The Great British Bake-Off.

The Olympics has done very well! There was one day last week (the night with the cycling) where it achieved 10m over two hours from 9-11pm!! And it peaked at 11m viewers at 11pm at night. Such crazy figures!
Overnights.tv ‏@overnightstv now3 seconds ago

#GBBO was back with 10.4m/47.5% - up on last year's launch figure of 9.3m/43.2% @LoveProdHouse @PaulHollywood http://www.overnights.tv

WOWZA! :o

 

Series Openers

2010 | 02.03m | 09.1% (BBC 2)

2011 | 02.79m | 12.7% (BBC 2)

2012 | 03.46m | 16.7% (BBC 2)

2013 | 05.60m | 26.4% (BBC 2)

2014 | 07.18m | 34.6% (BBC 1)

2015 | 09.30m | 43.0% (BBC 1)

2016 | 10.44m | 47.5% (BBC 1)

If the quality is consistent and people can get behind the contestants then I don't see why it couldn't! I did feel like last year would be its peak series but it would be incredible if it could get even higher this series!

 

This is the list of top rated finals to reality talent/contest programmes, from this side of the century, that is, and also from what I can find, correct me if I've missed anything:

 

Date | Average | Peak | Show

 

30/05/09 | 17.33m (67.6%) | 19.19m (71.6%) | Britain's Got Talent (Part 2)

12/12/10 | 17.16m (55.0%) | 19.44m (60.5%) | The X Factor (Part 2)

13/12/09 | 15.62m (53.2%) | 19.70m (63.2%) | The X Factor

30/05/09 | 15.32m (71.0%) | 18.02m (75.0%) | Britain's Got Talent (Part 1)

09/02/04 | 14.99m (00.0%) | 00.00m (00.0%) | I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here

11/12/10 | 14.05m (52.6%) | 14.82m (56.8%) | The X Factor (Part 1)

13/12/08 | 13.46m (54.4%) | 14.59m (61.4%) | The X Factor

07/10/15 | 13.40m (54.8%) | 14.50m (57.2%) | The Great British Bake Off

 

The I'm a Celeb rating is from BARB's 7-day data, but this was in 2004 where most, if not all, people watched as it happened on TV.

  • Author
For the past couple of series, I've been going 'that will be it's peak' yet it just smashes it the following year so I'm not even sure as to when it will stop growing anymore!
I think ~15m will be its highest. Even though it is insanely popular and seems to follow a much fresher format than other big name contest shows, I can't see anything ever reaching the dizzy heights that BGT and X Factor did. Mind you, Bake Off does seem to always exceed expectations, so you never know!
