Total (inc. +1) = 9.94 million/39.2%; peak (ex. +1) = 11.2 million. It's ironic how Saturday's edition had 9.2 million with +1 added, yet yesterday had the exact same without. :laugh:

Sorry, I didn't see you'd already posted it. :tongue:

[Jake.]

No worries :p

[Redway]

Here's how Saturday's launch show fared in comparison to previous years' figures:

2004 - 4.9 million (+4.3m)
2005 - 6.6 million (+2.6m)
2006 - 7.0 million/37% (+2.2m)
2007 - 9.5 million/45% (-0.3m)
2008 - 10.2 million/48.2% (-1.1m)
2009 - 9.91 million/47.9% (-0.7m)
2010 - 11.28 million/48.6%) (-2.08m)
2011 - 11.30m/47.9% (-1.6m)
2012 - 8.71m/ 42.3% (+0.49m)

Pretty poor in comparison to earlier on (bar the first few years, which weren't that popular) but a gradual increase on last year. Hopefully, it'll build momentum and continue to attract viewers who dropped off last year.

[Black Dagger]

The queen bringing in dem viewers :worship:

[Mystic Mock]

This years X Factor has started off really badly, hopefully we'll find someone good soon.

[Redway]

Any predictions for tonight?

[Samm]

I think X factor will get 6 million or 7 million tonight

[Redway]

I'm guessing 8.3 million, with around 400k on +1.

[Samm]

The X Factor continued with 7.94m (36.3%) at 8pm (355k/1.8%), down 840k on last week's debut. It peaked at 8.59m at 8.30pm.

The Xtra Factor 667k (3.3%) at 9pm

[Redway]

The rating is actually all right, especially with +1 included (8.3m/38.1%).

[Redway]

9.11 million (35.5%), with 525k/2.3% over on +1. Total = 9.64m (37.8%).

[Redway]

8.65m (40%), with a peak of 8.85 million at 20.45. Including +1, it averaged 9.06m/42%.

[Jack.]

X factor peaked at over 10 million last night

[Samm]

not bad

[Redway]

Decent enough share and audience for the X Factor. Granted, it's nothing like it was but at least it's somewhat up y-o-y and isn't shredding any viewers. The 2010 highs of 12 million per episode is out of the question for now but the best thing it can do is maintain its audience, which it's doing right now.

[Samm]

I think tonight will get the same as last nights show

[Samm]

9.08m Sundays show Source Digital spy

[Redway]

Yeah, 9.08 million (34.7%), 9.64m (37.1%) inc. +1.

[Redway]

Only 7.6m (34.6%) for last night, 7.85m (35.8%) inc. +1. It had a peak of 8.04m @ 21.15.

Strictly Come Dancing had 9.11m/43.4%, w/ a peak of 9.92m.

[Samm]

peaked with 9.5m, averaging 8.1m, 1 million down on last year's first live show and 700k down on last Saturday's episode.

[Jemal]

Tbf when you got strictly thats on a NON-advert station your always gonna lose lol.
So good ratings.

[Redway]

7.82m (a third of available audience), in comparison with SCD's 9.82m (43.1%), peak of 10.79m.

[Me. I Am Salman]

Omg how bad

Well that doesn't really make sense given how X Factor would have beaten Strictly some years ago :laugh:

[Jemal]

Yea were people wouldnt give a **** about adverts.

[Gstar]

I can never get into Strictly, I only watched some of it last year purely for Tracy Beaker

[newsbb]

i dont know how people watch scd its so boring! thats low for the x factor.

[Jake.]

Yea were people wouldnt give a **** about adverts.

People aren't switching over because of adverts, you don't see Eastenders beating Corrie do you?

[Jemal]

Jake comparing soaps to talent shows/reality shows are just quite erm...
Stupid?

No it isn't? You said that Strictly is winning because of adverts (which makes no sense what so ever, 2 million people who watched the show a few years back didn't decide to stop watching because of adverts), my point was that adverts have nothing to do with people suddenly switching off (the example being Corrie and Eastenders). Not as many people are watching The X Factor as a few years back because they aren't interested any more, same woth Big Brother and so on.

[Jemal]

But their two completely different genres lol.

[Jake.]

But their two completely different genres lol.

It was only an example Jemal, my point being that adverts isn't why Strictly is winning, if it was then it would have been winning from the very off.

[Jemal]

Noooo Jakey, you are WRONG.
I dont have any evidence to prove your wrongness but you just are :idc:

[Jake.]

If you say so Jemal :laugh:

[Redway]

Jake is darn right, though, Jemal. Corrie typically maintains a 1 to 2m lead over EastEnders (and bound to be more given what they have coming up) and the latter has no adverts yet still gets worse ratings.

Why did the X Factor beat SCD hands down a couple of years back? After all, the adverts there were still as prominent and how could anyone explain the gigantic 2012/13 decrease on previous years using advertisements? A lot of people have simply stopped watching the show, and understandably so.

Saying 'omg ur so wrong but i dunno how 2 explain it!!' doesn't really do much in the way of you trying to appear more knowledgeable.

[Jake.]

:worship:

[Redway]

7.57m (32.9%), whilst SCD had 9.69m (43.9%).
