Celebrity Big Brother 14 Ratings Thread

[Samm]

I don't get why you don't like CBB in summer, if anything it's refreshing to have after BB. But if there is really successful BB like BB 14 then it's not really needed, the series isn't flopping at all, ratings have been decent.

It isn't refreshing at all it just put the attention away from the main show and it drags the show after 10 Week of BB it's tiring

Normally I'd agree, but BB15 left with such a bitter feeling about BB in general that I am happy that CBB14 came along after to try and make me completely forget about it.

Also, how is it flopping? It has come close to overtaking ITV in around 5 occasions and it did overtake it on Tuesday night. And it is pretty much stable on the previous two summers despite there being around 4m less viewers a night of TV this year than those two series.

It doesn't matter if BB15 left a bad feeling not all series have to end in a good way it's still tiring and it puts me completely off the show

and btw I didn't say it's flopping I just hope the ratings aren't good so it's not in the next contract

[mrmattybeck1]

It bloody is refreshing bbuk was awful end of Cbb is much better

[Samm]

It was one series you don't have to direct it at the entire franchise

[mrmattybeck1]

I personally think Cbb needs to go bck to 3 weeks 4 is too long

[Josy]

Any news on what LF got?

You said, "I hope the ratings aren't good" but they are, so no doubt they will keep it on in the summer too. Ch5 has never managed to beat Ch4 and BBC2 in the summer before until CBB came along, and to be 50k away from surpassing ITV too on a Weds night! Yes, there is no chance they will not want that.

Ch5 ratings in the summer in the past have been sub 1m on average, with in the winter being around 1.2m average.

On slightly later tonight 9.25pm after the x factor

[ruiphillips]

OMG bb15 wasn't even bad

It was diabolical. The storylines were tedious and the constant arguing every three seconds was off-putting and tiresome. It deserved them awful ratings.

[Will.]

On slightly later tonight 9.25pm after the x factor

Yep, found X factor boring.

[*mazedsalv**]

Something iffy with the rating, I don't think the 1.87m incl +1 if tape checked (show finished 6 mins early last night). DS reporting 1.81m excl +1, and I doubt it only got 60k on +1 considering the lowest +1 rating so far in CBB has been around 110k. Last Friday's +1 was 140k!

I reckon last night was more like 1.95m.

As for tonight, for sure, will be a series low. It's a Saturday, no where near as much hype as last Saturday, and Twitter seemed very empty.

[Cal.]

We went weeks without arguments so that's not true. CBB14 has had more arguments in 13 days than BB15 did in 72.

[*mazedsalv**]

Very poor for last night, 1.2m incl +1, but will ignore it because I hate Saturday ratings!! Despite the low ratings, it came 3rd in the slot.

[mrmattybeck1]

lol. If it came third in its slot then theres nothing to worry about, started at an odd time, should have done 10PM.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

:o

Wow that's a terrible rating even for a Saturday.

[Cal.]

lol ew

we're moaning about 1.2 now but this time in about 2 years that'll probably be a good rating for BB/CBB :p

[mrmattybeck1]

lol ew

If c5 don't make any changes I agree

[Rob!]

Meh, it's a Saturday. 3rd in it's slot is decent.

[mrmattybeck1]

Meh, it's a Saturday. 3rd in it's slot is decent.
C5 moved it to 9.25pm due to x factor

Leslie getting 1.8 for his evictionhttps://33.media.tumblr.com/ba49e21476cf660313a618b3a89684c8/tumblr_najfqfjIeq1qzoxt9o7_500.gif

[*mazedsalv**]

Leslie's eviction actually was close to 2m.

But disappointing, it will be at 1.8m+ tonight I'm sure! The Saturday and the slot change didn't help, I just ignore Sat ratings nowadays anyway. It did come 3rd in its slot which is not bad, looks like everything bar THE X Factor was low, Tumble on BBC1 dropped to 2.7m for example and Dr Who dropped a lot.

Officials released tomorrow! We know the launch got 2.75m, hoping we see 2.1m+ for the Tuesday-Sunday episodes!

Yeah I saw Doctor Who's rating - 5.6m?! :o especially for a Dalek episode.
That surely can't afford to drop much more can it?

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Meh, it's a Saturday. 3rd in it's slot is decent.

Its not decent at all.

The show needs to be getting 1.5+ on a Saturday or its going to be the lowest rated CBB ever. The show isn't on long enough to be able to take such a dent.

I cant believe it got 1.09m (5.4%) 1.2 with +1 :o has to be the lowest Saturday rating ever! The weeknights have been doing so well im looking forward to seeing those first officials tomorrow.

Oh that's WITH +1. Oh. Yeah that's ****.

[*mazedsalv**]

I predict 1.8m for tonight.

[*mazedsalv**]

Seems like people didn't need to worry about Saturday, it surged to 1.96m incl +1 for last night! 2nd highest non launch show of the series (behind the first Friday's 1.99m).

Meanwhile X Factor dropped a massive 1.3m from the night before and got 8.2m (odd considering Sundays usually do better than a Saturday for them too)

X factor is so old hat now people don't fall for it anymore

[Cal.]

That's made up for the awful Saturday rating!

[mrmattybeck1]

Great rating for cbb was a good episode as well

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Great rating!

We got the officials for week 1 yet? :)

[*mazedsalv**]

Hopefully they will be out at around 1pm-2pm :)

Brilliant! I find the X gator a bit boring, with BB anything could happen! But with the X factor its just people singing.

[mrmattybeck1]

I'm amazed how many still watch x factor done very well to last 11 series

[Jake.]

Great stuff

[*mazedsalv**]

CBB came 2nd in its slot I think. Awesome :D

It beat BBC2 and CH4, and considering Great War got only 1.2m last week, I doubt it climbed over 800k just because it followed the X Factor, so it seems likely it beat ITV too :D

[*mazedsalv**]

OFFICIALS:

There is one +1 missing, but will get that very soon! Here is what we have:

Monday- 2.75m incl +1
Tuesday- 2.04m excl +1
Wednesday- 2.39m incl +1
Thursday- 2.29m incl +1
Friday- 2.34m incl +1
Saturday- 2.03m incl +1
Sunday- 2.28m incl +1

Week 1 average- 2.30m (will be a little higher when we have Tuesdays +1)

[Cal.]

wow! great stuff! none under 2 million!

[Rob!]

Amazing ratings :clap1:

[Loukas]

Wooo :hello:

[*mazedsalv**]

To compare it is static on CBB12's official average of 2.3m, CBB10 got a 2.2m official average so currently beating that.

[mrmattybeck1]

Cbb really is a beast compared to bbuk :)

[Loukas]

I still can't believe last years average for the first week was 2.99m!

[mrmattybeck1]

I still can't believe last years average for the first week was 2.99m!
Its amazing how big Cbb is to bbuk now

[*mazedsalv**]

I still can't believe last years average for the first week was 2.99m!

You mean CBB13? Yes, that is huge, the last week average was over 3.4m!

[Loukas]

You mean CBB13? Yes, that is huge, the last week average was over 3.4m!

i do mean CBB13 yes. 3.4?!?! Insane!

[*mazedsalv**]

i do mean CBB13 yes. 3.4?!?! Insane!

Yep. Last week of CBB13: 2.61M, 3.63M, 3.49M, 3.41M and 3.71M. January will not hit that, I am positive, CBB13 was a monster!

[daniel-lewis-1985]

To compare it is static on CBB12's official average of 2.3m, CBB10 got a 2.2m official average so currently beating that.

I don't understand how its static to CBB12 though when the equivilant week almost every show beat CBB14 by around 200k.

It had 4 highlights that hit over 2.5 yet CBB13's highest highlights show is 2.39

:/

These averages really don't make sense to me sometimes, surely if a show was getting higher ratings each night the running average should be higher?

Ah, I was speaking about its series official average, it should be noted that both CBB10 and CBB12 declined rapidly after the first week. CBB12 averaged 2.50m in the first week, yes, but that was slightly boosted by a much higher official launch rating, CBB12 then fell to around a 2.1m official, didn't it?

I know, I shouldn't compare this first week with the whole series of CBB10 and CBB12, but it gives us ground to work with.

As for the missing +1 rating, Tuesday got 2.16m.

So, we have:

Mon: 2.75M
Tue: 2.16M
Wed: 2.39M
Thu: 2.29M
Fri: 2.34M
Sat: 2.03M
Sun: 2.28M

CBB14 first week average- 2.32m incl +1

CBB14 first week average- 2.32m incl +1

Not complaining though its impressive how BB managed to pull back around 800k to 2.3 million viewers when BB15 averaged a pathetic 1.55.

CBB12 did come off the back of a very successful civilian series aswell.

[*mazedsalv**]

Not complaining though its impressive how BB managed to pull back around 800k to 2.3 million viewers when BB15 averaged a pathetic 1.55.

Agreed, I know it makes no difference but according to Bbspy the BB15 official average is 1.57m (however still with 10 +1 missing that no one can find).

But yes, here were the week averages for CBB12:

Week 1- 2.50M
Week 2- 2.33M
Week 3- 2.15M
= 2.3m official

Hoping CBB14 doesn't drop across the run and hopefully will avoid being the least watched CBB (would need to drop under 1.8m daily) but to be fair even if it does, I think Ch5 would applaud at the climb from the civilian series.

[mrmattybeck1]

1.8m last night for cbb

[*mazedsalv**]

1.84m incl +1.

Still going strong!!

[mrmattybeck1]

1.84m incl +1.

Its rating around half a million higher compared to bbuk as well

[Jake.]

Good stuff! :)

Not bad, Mondays haven't been doing so well with this series, but it came third in its slot which is good.

[*mazedsalv**]

Not bad, Mondays haven't been doing so well with this series, but it came third in its slot which is good.

It actually came 4th, beating BBC2 and only 20k away from CH4.

But yes, anyway, it was up 190k from last Monday.

Meanwhile New Tricks dropped to its lowest rating ever at 5.3m at 9pm.

[Jake.]

Is that Saturday official rating from the huge episode? Managed to timeshift well

[*mazedsalv**]

Poor rating last night.... 1.57m incl +1

The 10pm slot just isn't working for CBB and really dragging the average down, now it will be worse with parents and kids/college starting again, so people can't really afford to go to bed at 11pm. Change it back to 9pm, there is literally no competition apart from In The Club on BBC1, I mean 9pm slot on ITV got 1.5m! Move it to 9pm!

Agree, it was also scheduled until 11:05pm when it finished at 10:57pm, and the 1.57m is not tapechecked so it may be slightly more but not sure.

Good share of 10.2% though.

Oh so it's just because there weren't many people watching tv as the share proves. The share is very good.

Yep, the task should probably have been focussed on more, don't know what they were thinking about George/Stephanie and Lauren/Ricci getting over airtime!

Tonight should be at around 1.9m again surely.

Hopefully the producers need to stop with these showmances no one cares about them anymore

[Rob!]

The 10pm move is frustrating - if it had gone out at 9pm it would have come second in it's slot like CSI did.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I struggled to watch last nights show tbh.

[Kai Anders]

I think we're all getting BB fatigue which is understandable after almost 90 days!

Shame the rating wasn't great at 10pm.. though saying that the share is pretty impressive!

I just hope the producers, directors, whoever's actually in charge of commission, continues to look at the shares. As we know, this year, more than ever people aren't watching Live TV, so for CBB to hold a 10% share imo is pretty impressive after nearly 15 years, and hopefully the ratings - if they turn out low in the long run - suggest there's still a strong marketplace for Celebrity Big Brother. My main issue is civilian, it got a 5.6% share, compared to Channel 5's annual average of 4.4% of the market.

Just so anybody's interested, I thought it'd be interesting to showcase the shares and ratings of each CBB. (NOTE - The viewers in millions are official ratings, therefore the actual share is not representative of the overall viewing population, but I was interested to see if there's a correlation considering most officials increase 200-300K.)

CBB8 - 2.8M (12%) (S)
CBB9 - 2.6M (10%)
CBB10 - 2.2M (9.4%) (S)
CBB11 - 2.8M (9.9%)
CBB12 - 2.3M (9.9%) (S)
CBB13 - 3.0M (10.9%)

CBB14 - 2.32M (9.4%) (S)

So currently.. CBB14 is pretty much on par with the previous summer series, ever so slightly higher than CBB12. And with the same share as CBB10 of 9.4% the viewing figures for Celebrity Big Brother are extremely stable.

Overall CBB on Channel 5 holds an average of 2.57 million viewers. With an average share of 10.2%.

So in all, the current run of Summer CBB14 is underpar with the total average, however still up on the average in terms of numbers for summer, and on par with the share of 9.4%. Of course, a week's official ratings aren't a lot to go by, but in terms of stability, CBB is doing extremely well. Of course, summer and winter must be spoken of separately.

Not me bbaus starts Monday that runs till end of November bring it on

[mrmattybeck1]

1.6m last night without plus one https://twitter.com/overnightstv/status/507449779757252608

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Interest has definitely waned since the first 2 weeks.

With only 8 days left its safe to say this will be the lowest rated CBB. Im thinking an official average of around 2.1.

[*mazedsalv**]

It's 1.78m incl +1 Dan.

As it was 1.62m and then 157k on +1.

Its on the low side but I'm not surprised with the football and Our Zoo facing it (which followed the HUGE Bake Off). I think that this series will probably rate at 2.2m officially, the same as CBB10.

[Rob!]

Poor figure last night - 1.4 excl +1.

[irishdave]

Poor figure last night - 1.4 excl +1.


That is really bad for a celebrity series - though not much has been happening in there. Tasks are rubbish and they are not given much to do. And it had a very promising start!!

[mrmattybeck1]

That's what happens wen you get rid of the entertaining housemates

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Not surprised im finding it such a chore to watch now after such an amazing start.

It was up against educating the east end aswell mind which I bet had a good 3 million.

1.8m it got

[Rob!]

Yeah it got hammered last night - last in it's slot I think. :(

ITV's new drama got 3.58m and BBC2 got 1.9.

[Rob!]

According to Salv the ratings king ( :worship: ) on DS, +1 added a fair amount bringing it to 1.7.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

1.8m it got

Educating The East End only got 1.8?! I was expecting that to have a fairly big audience.

Does anyone know the +1 for CBB?

[mrmattybeck1]

According to Salv the ratings king ( :worship: ) on DS, +1 added a fair amount bringing it to 1.7.
Oh wow not too bad then

[*mazedsalv**]

It got 1.65m incl +1.

Such a shame, its the people's fault for not voting to save Frenchy :( I voted her and Gary. Now, knowing the public, Gary and James will be out tonight...

It seems that this series will be the lowest CBB, well, you know, if BB was the lowest ever, it only makes sense that the CBB following it would be too. :(

It sucks - especially as this series started so strongly.

[*mazedsalv**]

Educating East End got 2.2m incl +1 so I am sure that dented it.

[mrmattybeck1]

1.65m without plus one last night

[Loukas]

The latest Celebrity Big Brother live eviction peaked with 1.74 million on Channel 5.

Friday's (September 5) double eviction entertained an average audience of 1.61 million (8.4%) from 9pm, as Kellie Maloney and Stephanie Pratt were the latest to leave the house

In a change from the regularly scheduled programming, it was followed by 811k (5.9%) for an episode of The Joan Rivers Position and 519k (0.9%) for Big Brother's Bit on the Side.

And tonight's a Saturday :facepalm:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Poor and a 0.9% share for bots? that's terrible.

Could tonight drop below 1 million for the first time in CBB history?

Remember last Saturday got 1.09 without +1.

At least Gary and James stayed last night worship :)

[Jake.]

0.9% for bots is a mistake

[daniel-lewis-1985]

CBB starts at an awkward time again tonight after all other shows have started so it will be a very low figure for tonights show.

They should just stick it on at 10.

Why is it us forum members seem to be better at scheduling than the actual people getting paid for it lol.

I genuinally think the answer to that is yes. Sad times.

[Samm]

Good, axe the Summer CBB

[mrmattybeck1]

Just 1.3m with plus one last night:(

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Just 1.3m with plus one last night:(

100k higher than last week.

I thought it was going to drop below 1 million....But its still ****.

[jackc1806]

Think a lot of people are just sick of the show, it's been on air for like 14 weeks or something. Considering BB was pretty awful people aren't bothering. Just have one CBB in Jan for gods sake!

[Cal.]

Yeah BB has been on since 5th June now, I'm barely scraping by now with it. Hope the officials are good tho tbh

[mrmattybeck1]

Not for me bbaus starts tommorow night for 11 weeks:)

[*mazedsalv**]

To be fair on BB, last nights rating is OK considering how low it has dropped the last few days. It was 100k up on last week and only 100k down on the last Saturday of CBB12, I know it only clashed with X factor for around 4 mins last night but that could have made a tiny difference, I thought CBB started at 9:20pm, right after X Factor but it started at 9:15pm. I mean last Sat went from 1.21m and then got 1.96m on Sunday; I never look at Sat ratings much, but it was up. Tonight, I reckon 1.8m.

There is still question marks above Fridays rating. It got 1.61m excl +1, and on average the evictions have added around 110k so we are looking at around 1.72m for Friday.

I'm looking forward to the officials tomorrow, but they won't be that high I don't think, as people said, people are slowing down their watching, it's been on for so long!

Even in its hay day ratings always dropped a lot on Saturdays I never really bother myself

[*mazedsalv**]

Come to think of it, BB clashes with X Factor for 5 mins and Strictly for 15 mins. What odd scheduling :(

[*mazedsalv**]

Awful rating... 1.50m incl +1

I knew that the 5 min clash with X Factor and 15 mins clash with Strictly would have destroyed it.

Well, its certainly the lowest rated series of CBB.

[Rob!]

Ouch. The highs of that last Sunday of the January series hitting 3m seems like years ago.

[*mazedsalv**]

Ouch. The highs of that last Sunday of the January series hitting 3m seems like years ago.

I know, shame, but I'm not surprised, I think people are exhausted. Lets see what the officials bring later.

[Rob!]

I think it's lucky to be getting the ratings it does - another four weeks on top of the civilian series, whether it's successful or not, is overkill plain and simple.

[mrmattybeck1]

I would be happy with 10 weeks of civilian then that's enough

[Josy]

I just made it through the entire show last night, really finding it a chore now :eek:

[*mazedsalv**]

All incl +1 except Friday. Sat really dragged it down, if that wasn't included, it would have averaged around 2.2m.

Monday- 2.13m
Tuesday- 2.10m
Wednesday- 2.19m
Thursday- 2.38m
Friday- 2.08m excl +1
Saturday- 1.56m
Sunday- 2.37m

Week 2 officials (with Friday's +1 excluded) is 2.12m.

So, looking at the 2.32m from week 1 and 2.12m from week 2, the series is averaging 2.22m.

Excellent officals - that Saturday really was bad. It wasn't a bad episode I seem to remember - they should have done that teaser thing again.

[*mazedsalv**]

Yeah the Sat only got 1.21m in overnights. The Thursday and Sunday officials are higher than most CBB10 and CBB12 numbers which is great, shame the others were lower.

It will sadly be the lowest CBB, but I am sure it won't fall beneath 2m so its still good, especially following the ratings of BB15 and how long its been running.

My final prediction is that it will be at around 2.09m incl +1 at the end of the run.

[*mazedsalv**]

Also to note that CH5 came 3rd in the slot despite being lower last night beating BBC2 and CH4. CH4 got 1m at 9pm and BBC2 only 432,000. At least it makes the 1.5m look better.

[*mazedsalv**]

BBC1:
The Village- 4.18M

BBC2:
The Three Amigos- 432,000

ITV:
The Suspicions of Mr Whicher- 2.61M

That was bad for ITV. I wonder if they'll try and perform better come January as CBB was big competition for them, even this series it's been beaten a few times

[*mazedsalv**]

Yep especially with a lead in from X Factor, it'd probably be sub 2m without it.

Horrific for BBC2 though :D

All I think, the show will not be in trouble if its beating BBC2 and CH4. It as you said, has beaten ITV three times this series.

[Rob!]

Haha yeah that was appalling :joker:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I thought The Suspicions of Mr Whicher was supposed to be some big new show.

I cant believe how much that bombed especially when almost 8 million people were watching ITV just minutes before it started.

[Rob!]

1.71m (7.5%) incl+1 for last night. Fair to middling.

[*mazedsalv**]

Not bad considering how down its been and was up against the England qualifier and New Tricks.

[Rob!]

3rd in it's slot, beating BBC2 and C4 so it did alright :)

[Rob!]

1.52 excl +1 last night (9.9 %). Good share. Hopefully tonight will be back up around the 1.8 mark.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

1.52 excl +1 last night (9.9 %). Good share. Hopefully tonight will be back up around the 1.8 mark.

With +1 (80k) it got 1.6.

Crap rating, good share.

If that +1 was from TVRatingsUK, they are not reliable, that's what lots of members have said, they just randomly assume. I believed it during BB15 but then when we got real figures, they were never right.

Also assuming that the +1 for CBB has never been under 110k for a 10pm episode, I doubt its correct. If we compare, last time it aired at 10pm, its +1 got around 130k I think.

So it's most likely higher than 1.60m. Even if it was 1.60m, CBB came 2nd in its slot.

They are usually exactly the same as what DS provides when they provide +1 aswell mind.

DS didn't provide +1 today and doesn't that only usually happen when the +1 figure falls below 100k?

[*mazedsalv**]

They are usually exactly the same as what DS provides when they provide +1 aswell mind.

DS didn't provide +1 today and doesn't that only usually happen when the +1 figure falls below 100k?

What that source does is wait for the DS roundup and put the +1 figures as it says on DS, but if DS don't provide the +1, they randomly guess and it is normally to a full figure, like 1.60m, or 1.40m. They are not reliable at all when DS doesn't incl the +1.

Also, normally yes, it's true DS didn't used to release ratings with less than 100k, but now they are not releasing them even if they are 150k, if its on at 10pm and the +1 is at 11pm, DS doesn't report them, even if it got 200k.

I found this out during the end of BB15, because DS never included +1 in its report, and a few times, TVRatingsUK would say it got 80k for example, but the officials would reveal it only added something like 50k. So it was never right, or TVRatingsUK would say it added only 50k but the officials show that +1 was like 190k.

As for tonight, not expecting a climb at all, it struggled last week with Our Zoo, and now it has that and the new series of Scott and Bailey which usually gets around 6m.

[*mazedsalv**]

Last night reached its highest rating in a while. It got 1.93m incl +1. Didn't expect that at all!

[Jake.]

:amazed: there's hope yet!

[Kai Anders]

Well that near 2 mil will bump the officials up a small bit nicely! Woo!

[Kai Anders]

Strong 9.6% share too!

Does anyone have all shares for each episode? Interested to find out the share statistics for this series compared with others,

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Last night got 1.67 including +1 (7.1%)

[Jake.]

:/

[*mazedsalv**]

UK TV Ratings ‏@TVRatingsUK 27s
The final of #CelebrityBigBrother averaged 2.18m/11.7% from 9pm. #CBBBOTS drew 1.05m/9.6% from 10.45.

This is UP on CBB10 two summers ago and EXACTLY the same rating as last summer (CBB12) where Charlotte won which also got 2.18m! That consistency! :shocked: That is a fantastic BOTS rating and share.

[mrmattybeck1]

Wow wasn't expecting that glad it beats piers:)

[*mazedsalv**]

Wow wasn't expecting that glad it beats piers:)

Yep it beat Piers on ITV which came last :joker: Hilarious because he is obsessed with ratings and always brags on Twitter, mate, you got beaten by everything :laugh:

I hope CH4, BBC2 came below 2.18m, that'd be fantastic.

[Jake.]

:amazed: what a nice suprise, was dreading the rating lol

[*mazedsalv**]

Came 3rd in its slot, even BBC1 winning the slot was only 500k higher. Bold are the shows on at 9pm in competition.

BBC1:
WILTY- 2.79M
Boomers- 2.65M
Big School- 2.34M

BBC2:
GBBO An Extra Slice- 2.50M

ITV:
Gino's Italian Escape- 2.52M
Piers Morgans Life Stories- 1.96M

CH4:
8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown- 2.04M
Alan Carr Chatty Man- 1.16M

CH5:
Celebrity Big Brother- 2.18M
Celebrity Bit on The Side- 1.05M

All include +1.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

That's a brilliant rating for BOTS no doubt people tuned in like I did for the Edele/Stephanie extravaganza lol.

This was the best final in years, well deserved.

[mrmattybeck1]

Agreed with everything you said.

Very intrigued with what Viacom will do, I will be watching Ch5 carefully from now on to see if any changes have been made.

[Kai Anders]

SUCH AN AMAZING RATING!

I am thrilled with the consistency of the show! And the proximity between the likes of BBC One makes me weak. Piers has had his day pretty much everywhere. It's amazing that before CBB or even BB.. Channel 5 would consistently fail against the Big 4, the fact that it continually beats and edges closer to beating them is an amazing feat, despite what others will say about how 'poor' the ratings possibly are.

It's clear that BB and CBB is still a winning format for a more low key channel and I hope those at Viacom take this into account, would love to see a cult resurrection of the show as all it really needs is a little more effort and care and the potential to gain audience attention is clearly still there, evident in the consistent ratings.

Nice share, Nice rating for BOTS too! It might rate one of the lowest, but in fareness this is perhaps one of the few summer series of CBB in a while that has continued to thrash the likes of BBC Two, Channel 4 and more recently ITV!

Hats off to the producer's, this series was good, although lengthy at times, it had some very strong moments that'll go down in BB history!

So happy for Gary's win too, so deserved!

[Rob!]

Amazing rating :clap1:

Itv :joker: who was even on piers last night?

[Kai Anders]

Looks like the last few ratings paid off.. Once again Channel 5 beat Channel 4 for a whole day.. granted a small 0.4% BUT STILL.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Anyone got the officials?

[*mazedsalv**]

Two do not include +1

Monday- 2.25m incl +1
Tuesday- 1.94m excl +1
Wednesday- 2.09m incl +1
Thursday- 2.04m incl +1
Friday- 1.87m excl +1
Saturday- 1.64m incl +1
Sunday- 1.89m incl +1


To be expected, the week didn't do well in the overnights. Two don't include +1 and one still has a +1 missing from last week.

Adding these and the other officials, the official average (with only 5 more officials to go) is 2.13m. But with two of the overnights in the last week being 1.93m and the final being 2.18m which look likely to be at around 2.3m and 2.5m,PLUS the missing +1 ratings, we are looking at an average of 2.2m, the same as CBB10. It is under 2.15m at the end, it will be the lowest CBB.

[Jake.]

Any officials?

[mrmattybeck1]

Any officials?
Not sure salv will probably post them wen they are finalised

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Heres the last weeks officials and again theres +1 figures missing. Its so ****ing annoying.

Monday: 2.15
Tuesday: 1.89 (Excluding +1)
Wednesday: 2.25
Thursday: 2.08
Friday finale: 2.39 (Excluding +1)

Average 2.1 Excluding various Plus 1 figures so maybe that will climb to 2.2 and avoid being the lowest rated CBB ever

[*mazedsalv**]

Celebrity Big Brother's series average was 2.16m (9.7%), including +1.

The last week went...
- 06/09/2014 - 1.64m
- 07/09/2014 - 1.89m
- 08/09/2014 - 2.14m
- 09/09/2014 - 1.98m
- 10/09/2014 - 2.25m
- 11/09/2014 - 2.08m
- 12/09/2014 - 2.47m

CBB12 last summer ended with 2.59m so it was down 120k from that, and it officially averaged 2.3m. CBB10 two summers ago ended with 2.41m, so this series beat that by 60k, and it officially averaged 2.2m, so CBB10 and CBB14 are joint least watched.

CBB on Ch5:

CBB8- 2.8m
CBB9- 2.6m
CBB10- 2.2m
CBB11- 2.8m
CBB12- 2.3m
CBB13- 3.1m
CBB14- 2.2m

Note that there are still three missing +1 figures.

[Jake.]

Respectable

[Cal.]

Pretty meh ratings, I suppose.

[mrmattybeck1]

Not great but OK think ppl were put off after a disastetrious bbuk

[Jamesy]

It done just OK. BB15 done just OK too.

Fingers crossed there is more of a step forwards in 2015.

[SuddyMaddy]

2.2 at best imo
