Celebrity Big Brother 15 Ratings Thread

[thom_bombadil]

Just hope ratings are better for civilian bb in the summer

Agreed. Producers need to go back basics. It would be great if the housemates entered to a replica of the very first house - chickens, blue walls, purple chair, the lot - with hidden, extra features to keep it fresh. I miss the social experiment feel that BB used to have.

Oh, and Marcus Bentley needs to pipe down! Haha.

Don't think bb1 would work these days kids of today want drama in the house which I don't mind but not all the time bb1 would feel very dated if they did that now as well maybe a bb5-7 feel

BB14 style would be good!

[mrmattybeck1]

BB14 style would be good!
Agree secrets and lies was a great series we has a late night feed online as well

[daniel-lewis-1985]

A few different ratings flying around but ive seen 2.86 (14%) (2nd in slot behind ITV)

BOTS 1.2 million (8%)

Fanatastic rating for bots to hold onto over a million till 11:30.

Anyone know what live feed got?

[Jason.]

I'm sick of these idiots saying BB NEEDS TO GO BACK TO BASICS!
It's easy to wish for something, but when it does happen, you will be disappointed, trust me. It won't work.
BB1-4 wouldn't work these days.

I remember during BB14, everyone was annoyed that they didn't use the Secret and Lies theme, throughout the whole series. Then when they used Power Trip, through out, look how that turned out?

I think they need to go back to BB5-BB7.
That was the heydey of Big Brother, and the game hasn't changed much since.
They just need less manipulation, normal nominations, original, but occasional twists and bunch of good housemates, and great tasks.
BB14 was the closest resemblance to a series like BB7, on C5.
CBB13, was like BB5.
BB15 was like BB8, only nastier. With the constant meddling, manipulation and twists.

Completely agree bb1-4 wouldn't work now it would feel very dated I agree with your points regarding bb5-7

Great rating for BOTS.
Didn't a few BB15 evictions get 1.2M?

Basically the spin-off rated similar to a bad episode of BB15.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Anyone know what live feed got? Must have been around 500k+ I imagine?

[mrmattybeck1]

Anyone know what live feed got? Must have been around 500k+ I imagine?
I've seen it got around 350k might be wrong

[Jason.]

Anyone know what live feed got? Must have been around 500k+ I imagine?

I hope so.
Didn't KP's entry live feed get 800K?

I'd like to think it hasn't dropped too much since.
350K is bad.
No wonder why they won't bring it back.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I don't think 350k is really bad for a show airing from 11:30 till after midnight.

[mrmattybeck1]

I don't think 350k is really bad for a show airing from 11:30 till after midnight.
Not sure that's right just seen that figure flying around

[Jason.]

I don't think 350k is really bad for a show airing from 11:30 till after midnight.

Good point.
But the fact that BOTS gets over 1M, and then half an hour later it drops to 300K.
Very big drop.

Maybe some viewers don't bother watching live feed. Same how some don't bother watching BOTS, as opposed to the highlights.

[thom_bombadil]

I'm sick of these idiots saying BB NEEDS TO GO BACK TO BASICS!

Nice one for that, hahaha.

I'd love to see BB go back to basics. I even preferred the original house at Three Mills.

[Will.]

Does anyone know what it got? All the other ratings seemed to be released.

[Will.]

Everytihng on ITV dropped to a series low:

On ITV, #StarsInTheirEyes (2.11m/10.4%), #PlanetsGotTalent (1.95m/9.1%) and #TakeMeOut (3.10m/14.3%) all dropped to series lows.

[mrmattybeck1]

2.22m last night including plus one via digital spy

[Jarrod]

2.22m last night including plus one via digital spy

This will bump up to around 2.5/2.6 in officials so still a very strong rating - especially for a Saturday! It'll still beat CBB13 hopefully.

[Jake.]

Very good for a Saturday (again)

[Rob!]

Annoying that without +1 CBB beat Channel 4 by 90k but with plus one C4 beat it, not by much mind but still... Still, considering C4 were showing Ted (was it a tv premier?) it should have done better.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

So this is the first year that CBB where every Saturday episode has got over 2 million with +1.

With only 6 more episodes to go I think its now safe to say this is the highest Channel 5 CBB to date.

If we have a ratings surge this last week with all the evictions and stuff happening and a final over over 3.5 million it could be higher in a major way.

Im looking forward to tomorrows officials :) and the joy of seeing the highlights hitting over 3 million :p This series every week has climbed in the weekly averages.

CBB15 current officials average is 3.15 in comparison to CBB6 on Channel 4 of 3.3 is it possible with officials hitting over 3 million and with a good rating final CBB15 could beat a Channel 4 series which was aired 6 years ago?!

I mean looking at the final week of CBB6 is embarrassing only 1 highlight show hit 3 million and most were under 2.5. The final for CBB6 also drew 3.5 million viewers and its safe to say CBB15 will top that. CBB6 was helped out by a high rated launch of over 6 million and I think that's the only reason their official even climbed to 3.3.

Let's make the most of this the ratings will be very different sadly for the civilian version

[Jake.]

2.56m (10.3%)

[mrmattybeck1]

2.56m (10.3%)
Hmmm a bit low the jump on c4 returned with 2.8m by the way

[*mazedsalv**]

Tonights scheduling really is extremely horrific.

I expect a series low. Who in the right mind would air this "bombshell" at 8pm? I mean, fair enough, we can handle a clash with The Jump, but also a clash with Eastenders and Corrie? And also at 8pm, I seem to recall BB never hitting 2m+ in that slot.

It really was the worst day for this bombshell, would have made sense to have it tomorrow.

I think after 2 hours of CBB (if people survive that long), will people really stick around for 10000BC at 10pm. I reckon this will be a bad night.

8PM Live Bombshell- 1.6m
9pm The Aftermath- 1.2m
10000BC- 1.2m.

[Rob!]

Lol tonight is going to be a disaster :laugh2:

[Jarrod]

Hmmm a bit low the jump on c4 returned with 2.8m by the way

It'll still boost up in officials. Tonight will have strange ratings because it's on at 8pm and 9pm

[daniel-lewis-1985]

That's low for a Sunday rating.

Tonight will rate low due to the ****ing terrible scheduling and Tuesday may possible be affected due to people thinking its a repeat as they usually do after a normal eviction.

10,000bc is going to bomb, using CBB for a lead in is a terrible idea who the **** is going to commit to 3 hours of reality tv especially when the last programme will be spent getting to know a **** load of new people.

Anyway are the officials out yet?

[*mazedsalv**]

Latest officials:

Monday- 3.07m
Tuesday- 3.51m
Wednesday- 2.85m (clash with NTAs)
Thursday- 3.26m
Friday- 3.06m
Saturday- 2.67m
Sunday- 3.31m

Official series average at this point is 3.13m.

[mrmattybeck1]

The Jump 1.99 (8.5%)
CBB 1.67 (7.2%)
CBB Fallout 2.57 (10.6%)
10,000 BC 1.43 (9.0%)

[Will.]

The Jump 1.99 (8.5%)
CBB 1.67 (7.2%)
CBB Fallout 2.57 (10.6%)
10,000 BC 1.43 (9.0%)

Meh!! So stupid to have CBB at 8, 10,000BC should have been moved to another day, very surprised 10,000BC only got 1.43 considering how much promotion it had. Good rating for CBB live fallout, last night schedules was a mess.

[Jamesy]

The 9pm slot had a decent rating. Why didn't they have the whole night in one hour. Would have made far more sense than dragging it all out.

10,000 BC did well.

[mrmattybeck1]

Poor for 10,000 BC really I expected more

[Rob!]

Could have been a lot lot worse but God that was stupid scheduling.

[Jake.]

The 9PM rating is fine, as is the rating for 10,000 BC really

[Rob!]

The 8pm rating should still hit over 2m officially.

[Vanessa]

I think most people thought the show would start at 9 pm and missed it. :joker:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

It makes me sick looking at only 1.3 million were watching it live at 8pm and only 2.0 million at 9pm.

Thank god for +1 on that 2nd show.

Channel 5 really really ****ed up with this.

What were they thinking?!?!

[Jake.]

If it had been a usual 9PM eviction then there's no way any other show of theirs would have gotten 1.7 against Eastenders/Corrie at 8PM anyway

[Jason.]

CBB6 was helped out by a high rated launch of over 6 million and I think that's the only reason their official even climbed to 3.3.

One thing I've noticed with the C4 series is that they usually have really high rated launches (6M), but then they fizzle out in overnights and finals (2-3M), which bring the overall average down by about 40-50%.

With C5, the ratings are consistent and the averages are much closer to the launches. For example, a launch on C5 would ideally get around 3.5M, and the series average would be about 3M, which is only down by 15%.

[thom_bombadil]

Oh dear...

[daniel-lewis-1985]

What are we thinking for tonight?

2.5?

[Jason.]

What are we thinking for tonight?

2.5?

I predict 2.8.

[Jake.]

2.60m for CBB incl +1.

[mrmattybeck1]

Great rating how did 10,000 BC do

[*mazedsalv**]

10000BC got 1.10m.

2.60m is a decent rating I guess. A bit on the average side for this series, but it says it all about how well this series is doing when we are a little "meh" over a 2.6m rating. (which will be officially around 3m anyway).

I reckon the show will basically be equal to CBB13 which averaged 3.04m. According to officials, CBB15 so far has been averaging 3.13m. But we have had some lower than usual ratings since Saturday.

Also most note that CBB13s final week did excellently during the When the Bell Tolls task/Lee's eviction, leading up to the final, which greatly improved their average in the last week. From Week 1-4, CBB15 actually beat all but three officials from the first 4 weeks of CBB13, BUT since Sunday, CBB15 ratings have been lower than the equivalent CBB13 Sunday, Monday and Tuesday (which were the highest non launch or final shows of the series).

[Will.]

Great rating! Lol 10,000 BC got 900k without plus 1, it had so much promotion etc, the ad even aired on ITV! Very poor, I would expect high 1 million, but 10,000 BC is pretty boring.

[mrmattybeck1]

Its very 2000 isn't it

[Rob!]

They should have stuck 10,000 BC after BB had finished - expecting people to be following two reality shows at the same time is a bit optimistic in my view and it's not as if C5 have the sort of schedule where there wouldn't be room for it anywhere else.
2.6m is good - like Salv says not great compared to the rest of the series so far but still.

[*mazedsalv**]

Don't know how tonight will do. It's clear by ratings when footie is on, that there are more males than usual tuning in this year, as the ratings have dropped when football is on. Usually, BB is unaffected by footie (unless its a big game). When the footie has been, there has been a huge +1 rating for the show.

Tonight Liverpool is playing, granted, it's not the biggest game ever, but clashing with the eviction, CBB will be dented a bit I think.

Then for the final, the Six Nations Wales vs England will be on. Looking at the last time it was on, it garnered around 7m, so that could dent the final.

[SSL2012]

What are we thinking for tonight?

2.5?

Get back to arselicking Narinder on her facebook status you!!! :dance:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Get back to arselicking Narinder on her facebook status you!!! :dance:

I like talking to Narinder and I'm certainly not arse licking her I only rim men thanks.

Stop being a jealous Julie.

[mrmattybeck1]

Narinder was the one that slagged Emma off wasn't she when she became host

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Narinder was the one that slagged Emma off wasn't she when she became host

Yup, something about Emma not speaking to Brian about the decision. Who knows what really went on she was obvs just backing up her best mate.

Anyway isn't this a ratings thread? lol.

2.7 tonight I reckon I see the masterminds at Channel 5 have made a double eviction a 60 minute show :/ they really aren't the brainiest bunch are they.

And we wounder why we don't have a live feed clueless bunch

[Jake.]

2.6 inc +1

[Jake.]

MotD averaged 4.5m, with over 5m for the match iitself. The quarter hour peak came at 9.15pm when there were 5.7m watching (don't have 5 min peaks).

Midsommer Murders - 4.3m (4.7m)
The Jump - 1.8m (2.1m)

[*mazedsalv**]

Including +1, #CelebrityBigBrother just got the better of it with 2.67m/11.7%.

Not bad against the footie. Tonight being a Thursday has been the weakest competition day for BB, so 2.8m?

[mrmattybeck1]

The Perez show [emoji1]

[Jake.]

Oh, that's a bit better then.. Makes me laugh the even in the winter with a bunch of celebs, The Jump is getting less viewers than BB was at its lowest point on Channel 4

[Vanessa]

The Perez show [emoji1]

Perez is a viewers magnet. :flutter:

[mrmattybeck1]

Oh, that's a bit better then.. Makes me laugh the even in the winter with a bunch of celebs, The Jump is getting less viewers than BB was at its lowest point on Channel 4
Anything over 1m is successful for c4 at the moment

[daniel-lewis-1985]

With such a big eviction you would expect it to be around 3 million but I guess that shows how well the show has been doing when a 2.67 rating is jut meh.

Seriously what do we think the final is going to get now? Its far less predictable than a few weeks ago where we were all pretty confident it could hit 4 million.

Im thinking around 3.3 now so a 600k increase on what its currently settled at.

[Loukas]

i already guess 4m for the final but i'm not as confident anymore.. i'm going to go with 3.4m

[mrmattybeck1]

i already guess 4m for the final but i'm not as confident anymore.. i'm going to go with 3.4m
4m no way it hasn't got that since c4 days 3.5m I reckon

[emmetmcl]

For the final; I'd say around 2.9million; I can't see that many more people tuning in, overnight. It'll probably get 3.6 official though imo.

[Maxxie.]

Hopefully the final will get more than the launch or alexander's walking. I'm not sure on 4m but over 3.8 sounds great, maybe even 3.9. I predict it will be the 2nd highest rating of c5 days.

[mrmattybeck1]

For the final; I'd say around 2.9million; I can't see that many more people tuning in, overnight. It'll probably get 3.6 official though imo.
That would be low it should be over 3m

[Will.]

Its very 2000 isn't it

The concept is very good, but its boring, its need to be more like BB, where they vote each other off, because t could be a great show but there something missing.

[Will.]

2.63 including +1 12.3%

Pretty good

[mrmattybeck1]

2.63 including +1 12.3%

Pretty good
Expected more myself but not bad

[Will.]

Expected more myself but not bad

Yeah same, but it's good for an aftermath eviction show.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

What are we thinking for tonight then 3.1/3.3?

[Rob!]

Hopefully it'll hit 3m tonight - it should do. The football will inevitably dent it though.

[Loukas]

3.4 i think! I'm an optimist

[Jamesy]

I predict 3.1

Wouldn't be surprised if we see 2.8 though

[Samm]

3.3

[ruiphillips]

2.90

[Denver]

Id say 3.52

[Jake.]

3.3

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I know social media isn't really something to judge ratings on but Katie Price didn't even trend as far as im aware?

CBBFINALE has been trending but the finalists have popped up and dropped off.

Its odd usually the finale dominates the timeline.

Im thinking 2.9 for tonight tbh even so the series average will still be on parr with 2014 im sure its been a ratings smash it just went on a week to long. Lesson learned, less is more.

[RichardG]

Underneath CBB is Atomic Kitten so maybe its a quiet night on Twitter overall lol.

:hehe:

I reckon it will rate decently, nothing spectacular. 3m maybe? I'm wrong 99% of the time about this stuff though so idk really. :laugh:

[thom_bombadil]

Katie Price and CBBFinale have been trending all night!

[mrmattybeck1]

2.71m for the finale very poor what happened

[daniel-lewis-1985]

2.71m for the finale very poor what happened

What the ****?!

Where did you get this from?

How could it possibly be that low.

[mrmattybeck1]

From ds very strange what happened

[daniel-lewis-1985]

From ds very strange what happened

OMG and that includes +1 aswell.

What an absuloute ****e rating.

[Ross.]

Peak: 3.16m (14.2%) at 22:00

[mrmattybeck1]

OMG and that includes +1 aswell.

What an absuloute ****e rating.
Around the same as a normal highlights show very odd

[mrmattybeck1]

Peak: 3.16m (14.2%) at 22:00
Not a great peak either very disappointing

[Samm]

The peak is good?

But anyway I will doubt they will care the series rated well overall

[daniel-lewis-1985]

The peak is good?

Ofcourse they will care.

Its a terrible rating.

Embarrassingly low.

[mrmattybeck1]

Its a shame after such a great series ratings wise

[RichardG]

People are probably bored by now, the series dragged on way too long. I really don't think continuing to extend CBB is a good idea, it needs to be short and quick so all the drama remains exciting and the finale will rate amazingly. Otherwise people start to tail off and get bored, I sure know I did anyway. :laugh:

Agree 3 weeks is enough

[*mazedsalv**]

That is terrible, beyond awful. That's lower than the average for a HL show this year. I mean, I know it was up against the Six Nations which peaked at 8.8m, but would all those people have dropped the final completely? It makes no sense whatsoever.

The only possible rescue would be if it timeshifts 1m to match it with last January! Just the fact that it needs to add 1m officially to match a series that it has been beating is embarrassing.

Wrong day I think maybe salv

[Jack_]

No idea what you're all on about, this series has been the perfect length. Three weeks never matched up to the latter C4 series lengths and I'd wanted them to beat the previous 27 day records for ages so I'm glad they finally did

All that needs to happen is summer CBB is axed. Four or five weeks of CBB in the winter is perfect, and then let's get our 13 week civilians back plz

That is however a disappointing rating :(

[thom_bombadil]

Maybe it is time that they give BB a rest. It's obviously been milked to death since it's move to Channel 5. I always thought that they should have bought it and given it a couple of years to make people thirst for it. I certainly didn't realise BB would be on pretty much all year when it moved to Channel 5.

Doesn't need a rest, this series has beating CBB13 in the ratings, most watched since 2011. If it was a low series overall then yes I would agree.

Hardly January till February then June till September same as c4 lol this series is the most watched series to date on c5 it isn't going anywhere :) anyway Viacom have said they would cut back on their bb coverage

Exactly this series has done fantastic for c5

It's already been confirmed it's back in 2016

I can see the show staying till 2020

As long as CBB gets highs 2m and low 3m for official ratings it won't be going anywhere

[mrmattybeck1]

I can see the show staying till 2020

Defientley, although I'm A Celeb needs a new look, but still does great with the ratings.

I think we need to get some perspective in here. It was only low because it was up against the Rugby which rated 7.31m (massive peak of 8.8m) and Benidorm took a big dent as well with only 3.53m.

[Stevep]

People are probably bored by now, the series dragged on way too long. I really don't think continuing to extend CBB is a good idea, it needs to be short and quick so all the drama remains exciting and the finale will rate amazingly. Otherwise people start to tail off and get bored, I sure know I did anyway. :laugh:

I think you are right. The producers made the mistake of focusing on purely one storyline, Hopkins V Perez. After a while that story just became repetitive and tiresome.

But at the same time i guess it was difficult for the producers to focus on any other stories as that storyline was the reason why most new viewers tuned in for in the first place.

[Jake.]

Yeah, the rating isn't great but I'm not letting it get in the way of the fact that this has been such a brilliant series, with some of the best ratings in a good 5 years. Channel 5 will still be over the moon.

[Will.]

2.7 is amazing for channel though, they rarely see a show got over 1 million.

I'm hoping for a huge timeshift! I understand what you mean, it was up against the Six Nations which peaked at 8.8m and was massive but I just am hoping for a big timeshift because surely no less than 3.3m would have watched the final!

When you have things in prospective of Alexander's walking out got 3.71m officially, it's certainly going to be a few hundred thousand lower than that. I was hoping for a 3.1m and around a 3.6-3.7m official.

Officially, I'm guessing around 3.1m which would be in line with the average of the series.

Digital Spy are saying 2.95 including +1.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Digital Spy are saying 2.95 including +1.

Digitial spy are actually reporting 2.95 as the peak so that's lower.

It got 2.5 million live and added 200k on +1.

I really cant believe it rated so low, literally lower than most of the highlight shows.

It lost steam. I have to disagree with most of the people in here. Big Brother should have been well-rested during it's Channel-hop. A few years away and the ratings would have been even higher than they are now.

The production is all tacky these days, too. I've been watching series 7 on YouTube. Those were the days!

C5 won't drop its most successful show wish civilian bb would take a break through

[thom_bombadil]

C5 won't drop its most successful show wish civilian bb would take a break through

No, they won't. They don't need to drop it! They just need to give it a rest for a while. They also need to stop using it to try and promote other shows to no avail. It cheapens it.

[mrmattybeck1]

On a series that was the most watched cbb series on c5 some saying bb should be rested I'm speechless

Let's see what Viacom can do

[daniel-lewis-1985]

This last week of the series was strange the editing went back to the days when Brian Dowling was hosting and it felt cheap where as the first 2/3 weeks felt like a classic series.

Marcus Bentley screaming EMMA W(GGGGGGRRRR)ILLIS!!!! (Yes he really did roar like a lion) Last night was the start of a bad final for me lol.

[ruiphillips]

The finale deserved those figures. BB16's ratings are going to be dire.

[Gstar]

Marcus has been unberable this whole series I wouldn't be surprised if the final rated low because of him.

But yeah, this series has been brilliant

[daniel-lewis-1985]

On a brighter note the series average in overnights is the highest in the Channels history.

CBB13: 2.49 (10%)
CBB15: 2.62 (11.37)

Now comes the excrutiating 2 week wait to see what it averaged officially lol. Im intrigued to see what the final will get once those officials come in.

[Jake.]

Well there we go then, what a great overnight average and a brilliant share. I really enjoyed last nights final, felt it flowed really well.

[mrmattybeck1]

Summer bb never does as well as cbb but hoping its around 1.5m most nights

It's definitely beat CBB13's ratings.
So far Week 1 and Week 2 of CBB15 have averaged 3.10M & 3.15M.
In CBB13, Week 1 and Week 2 averaged 2.99M and 2.94M.

If anything CBB15 will average somewhere around the 3.1-3.2 mark, whereas CBB13 averaged 3.07M.

[*mazedsalv**]

Officials: in brackets are what the overnight was

Monday- 3.14m (2.55m)
Tuesday- 3.09m (2.67m)
Wednesday- 3.42m (2.90m)
Thursday- 3.47m (3.02m)
Friday- 3.20m (2.85m)
Saturday- 2.66m (2.12m)
Sunday- 3.09m (2.56m)

Week average- 3.15m

After 26 days (and only 6 officials remaining (5 days but there were two shows on the Monday) which will be released tomorrow... the average so far is 3.134m. With the ratings being a little lower in the last week, I expect the show to average officially at around 3.06m. I'm worried it won't even be the highest rated Ch5 series anymore, CBB13 managed 3.04m. I hope it beats that.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Officials:

Monday- 3.14m
Tuesday- 3.09m
Wednesday- 3.42m
Thursday- 3.47m
Friday- 3.20m
Saturday- 2.66m
Sunday- 3.09m

Week average- 3.15m

Brilliant ratings.

Isnt the week average 3.19 though and running average 3.16?

[*mazedsalv**]

Brilliant ratings.

Isnt the week average 3.19 though and running average 3.16?

I calculated the above and from Mon-Sun, pretty sure the week average was 3.15m. Well, that's what the calc said. And how did you get 3.16m running average? I went on BBspy (and like a saddo), counted up all the current officials + the 7 we got today, divided it by the number of days on a calculator and it came up with a rounded up 3.134m.

The way you saw it was probably from the Sat-Friday which was 3.19m. And the 3.16m as you said for the running average doesn't include the last two ratings of the Sat and Sunday. Those two ratings made the whole series go from 3.16m to 3.13m. So, the 24 day average would have been 3.16m, but with those extra two days of the weekend, the overall average as of now is 3.134m.

I'm hoping for it to beat last years 3.04m. I'm worried that the overnight for the 8pm show on the Monday of 1.69m (maybe only around 2m officially) will have it go below 3.04m.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Has anyone got the officials for the Monday the show got under 2 million at 8pm?

Thought they were going to be released today.

[Lostie!]

Marcus Bentley needs to quieten down. I don't know what he's playing at.

Agree, but C5 seem intent on overusing him. Their idea seems to be shoehorning him in everywhere they can (even the end-of-series best bits now), and having him be as OTT as possible.

Much better on c4 he was only used for the highlights show especially in its early years

Yup im defo missing it!

[Scream]

Missing it too...ratings were disappointing...think maybe three weeks is best

[mrmattybeck1]

Its the highest rated Bb on c5 to date

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Officials for the final week are out today so we will know if its beat CBB13 to beome the highest rated.

I'm interested in seeing how many viewers the finale gained in officials seeing as it was pretty poor in overnights.

[MB.]

It should beat CBB13 considering it's been well ahead of it so far, but it won't beat it by as much as some people previously thought because of that lower final week. I'll take a guess at about 3.1m.

The ratings of the final week have put it in serious risk of actually falling below CBB13...Its possible.

Remember that 1.6 Monday episode :bawling:

The overnights average is still well above CBB13's, which unless nobody's bothered to watch on catch up whatsoever, should transfer into the officials.

Its up by 130k which Is good but its still not enough to 100% say its beaten CBB13.

[mrmattybeck1]

It will beat cbb13

[*mazedsalv**]

Really odd last week for CBB. Looks like the final did dreadfully in comparison to the series. Would have thought that being up against the Six Nations during the final would have made the final add a lot on timeshift.

Monday (8pm)- 1.97m
Monday (9pm)- 2.96m
Tuesday- 3.09m
Wednesday- 3.05m
Thursday- 3.10m
Friday- 3.04m

It's extremely odd that the final got less than the rest of the last week

The final series average of CBB15 is 3.085m (3.1m), making it the best rated on Ch5

But it was a close call as CBB13 averaged 3.04m. Those final week numbers had me worried and when I was calculating it all, I was thinking "oh no, we may not have done it!" I have no idea what happened during the final. As I said, would have thought a lot of people would have caught up. It's just bizzare.

It was a week too long in my opinion so not surprised

[*mazedsalv**]

It was a week too long in my opinion so not surprised

Maybe, but even the Thursday (last HL show) beat the final, so I don't think we can say "it was a week too long" because people were still watching. I very much doubt it that the viewers after 30 days of watching just thought, "meh, I've watched 30 days, can't be bothered to watch the last 90 mins of this". Iffy. It's just the final rating that is disappointing. The rest were all brilliant. Without the Six Nations, I would have bet on it being around half a million higher.

What we expecting for bbuk around 1.6-1.8m

[*mazedsalv**]

What we expecting for bbuk around 1.6-1.8m

Well, I think CBB was helped a bit by the extra promotion.

These are the BB officials in order... 1.6, 1.6m, 1.9m, 1.5m. So unlike CBB which from CBB14 to CBB15 went from the lowest rated Ch5 series to highest, BB14 to BB15 went from highest on Ch5 to lowest on Ch5 (and ever).

I'd say 1.7m if I was to guess, but you never know. It could be barely scraping 1m in overnights and getting officials of 1.3m for all we know if its poor, or could even hit 2m. So no idea!

Make or break year I feel for the civilian version cbb is fine

[daniel-lewis-1985]

The usual officials have been adding around 500k/600k so its really odd that the final week was adding as little as 300k for that Monday episode and the final.

Still though the series rated very well it was just a disappointing final figure which slightly tainted its blockbuster ratings title.

[Samm]

I feel like people where not bothered to watch it seeing as they would probably of known that Katie Price won

I think BB16 could get a 2 million official this year, there's no major sport events this summer but they have to have a good set of housemates on launch night or it will fall apart like last year

[Kai Anders]

10,000BC only got 835K last night.. still came 3rd in it's slot, not bad compared with CBB's positioning at 3rd a few times over the past few weeks!!

Not that far behind bbuk which gets around 1.3-1.5m either

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Not that far behind bbuk which gets around 1.3-1.5m either

It was down to just over 600k the next night though.

10,000BC has held up better than I expected tbh.
