The final week of this year's Big Brother started with something of a whimper last night when just 2.6 million viewers tuned in.
Reality shows traditionally build their audience in the days leading up to their grand finale, but the Channel 4 series could muster only a 16% share between 10pm and 11.05pm, according to unofficial overnights.
Last Monday's edition of the show pulled in 3 million and a 17% share; while the Monday of the final week of last year's series - also in the 10pm slot - pulled in 4.4 million and a 23% share.
BBC1's News at 10pm pulled in 5.2 million and a 26% share over 15 minutes, while ITV1's Hollywood Lives scored 1.4 million and a 7% share over 30 minutes from 10pm.
BBC2's Buzzcocks ... Imagine a Mildly Amusing Panel Game attracted 1.3 million and a 7% share across 30-minutes from 10pm.
Over on Channel Five, movie repeat Anger Management scored 1.6 million and an 8% share between 9pm and 11.05pm.
The final part of ITV1's Robson Green drama Little Devil attracted 4.3 million and a 19% share in the 9pm hour, down from last week's 4.7 million and down 1.8 million on its launch three weeks ago.
Elsewhere in the 9pm hour, BBC2's documentary Boys from the Brown Stuff picked up 2.1 million and a 9% share, while Channel 4's Secrets of the Stately Garden: A Time Team Special pulled in 2 million and a 9% share.
BBC1's Test the Nation special scored 2.8 million and a 15% share between 6.40pm and 8pm, while its results show at 9pm picked up 3.6 million and a 16% over 70 minutes.
The terrestrial movie premiere of Anchorman: the Legend of Ron Burgundy pulled in 1.5 million and a 14% share for BBC1 between 10.25pm and midnight.
