Yeah so it was hitting 3 million :rolleyes:

Yeah, for one of the HL shows. And that was with +1 and demand/recordings or whatever. So you can't compare until CBB10's ratings are released.

I fear you may be wasting your well-informed breath, JH95.

:laugh:

So are you saying that an overnight of 1.5 is going to jump to 3 million? lol I can compare because theres a massive gap.

Anyway i was responding to a comment that said if it was on Channel 4 it would hit 3 million by stating a fact that it did hit 3 million on Channel 5.

Lets not nit pick.

I said it hit 3 million and it did on 3 seperate occasions and was well up on this year.

Im king when it comes to ratings so back off bitch tits.

And yeah Redway breath wasted.

Oh dear god in heaven. Do you understand anything about measuring ratings comparatively?

No. You only look at the ratings, never at the circustances. And a blind person could see that Jnuary's ratings were up on these ones, why wouldn't they be? January is colder, gets more ratings, and it was the first series this year. And I know 1.5 isn't going to jump up to 3 million, 1.8/9 at best. But so what? This is the third series this year. Give it a break lol.

People aren't watching because it's absolute sh1te!

Every series of BB/CBB that has been on since Channel 5 got hold of it and started systematically destroying it has been absolute sh1te and i'm sure every one they do in the future (unless they have a massive re-think) will get progressively lower ratings.

BB as we knew and loved it is DEAD!!!!:(

Your recurring theme of trying to exhibit a high degree of knowledge in terms of viewing figures resumes its constant theme of embarrassment.

You absolutely cannot compare viewing figures from January to August. You absolutely cannot choose to pick up any old viewing figures from a particular time and then go on to compare them to another time.

So far it seems you have nothing to say for the fact that it is always colder and darker in January? Nothing to say that we can thus work out that more people are likely to be indoors at this time? Nothing to say for the fact that people are more likely to be outside having a life during the summer and aren't likely to be sat around waiting for CBB - or any other television show - to come on? Nothing to say that people can easily catch up with their shows should they choose to do so? Do you understand that ratings are not black and white? Has it ever occurred to you that people may be on holiday during the summer, which would perhaps compensate for and explain a significant yet obvious drop in viewing figures?

I would suggest you post some statistics to prove your argument and when I mean statistics I'm not talking about your interpretation which you will have no doubt subverted to suit your biased agenda but hard, obvious data.

It's a proven fact that people are more likely to be indoors watching television in January, kid. I would really suggest you research viewing figures in depth before forming your conclusions.

From BARB: http://www.barb.co.uk/graph/weekly-viewing?_s=4

As you can see, there tend to be peaks in general television viewership on the two extremes of the x-axis on the graph, with annual, inevitable drops in the middle section ... which would perhaps denote less viewership? In fact it denotes the least viewership throughout the year?

Is it not dark by 19.30 in January? Is it not cold enough to be confined to your own house throughout the month anyway and find a way of entertaining yourself - most probably through television, of which 20 million households in the UK alone posses?

Ever heard of photoperiodism? Vernal equinox? Summer solstice? Autumnal equinox? Winter solstice? Notice that the two extremes are given the label solstice and not equinox - which renders your point even more insignificant and a ludicrous comparison to make?

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur...9QEwAA&dur=351

See how January has approximately 14.8 hours of darkness as opposed to August, which can barely scrape 10? So mathematically speaking January gets at least 1.48 times more night than August? Not to mention all the people on holiday at this time? Not to mention the fact 2/3 of the people who go on holiday yearly in the UK alone go between 25 June and 31 August?

Incidentally, have a look at CBB8 and CBB9 versions - both at extremes in season - and see if the ratings were even remotely similar. No? Are they not?

And that's me done with you. You will undoubtedly find some way to dismiss and completely miss the idea - or should I say purportedly claim to do this - and spout the same ill-informed bull that you've spouted throughout this thread, which makes arguing with you as ludicrous as the arguments you present.

You will no doubt completely ignore the statistics and arguments I provide you and go on to insult other members who are educated in this field - and by the way isn't that rather hypocritical considering you allegedly reported me for insulting you the other day, of which I still haven't been infracted for yet? Ooops.

HOPE THIS CLEARS UP EVERYTHING FOR YOU.

Er ... yeah. Take that.

Yeah, this. Ratings are not black and white.

They are still not very good this series though, but it's no surprise considering it's off the tail-end of BB13 and late August. And not to mention it's gotten boring since Jasmine left.

Officials out from BARB:

BB Final- 1.72m (excl +1)

CBB Launch- 2.96m (incl +1)
Launch Live From The House- 1.79m (excl +1)
Thursday- 2.0m (excl +1)
Friday HLs- 2.18m (incl +1)
Friday Live Feed- 2.22m (incl +1)
Satutrday- 1.82m (incl +1)
Sunday- 2.31m (incl +1)

Friday's, Saturday's and Sunday's ratings! :amazed:

Including Live From The House, the Official average from those figures above is 2.2 million.

It should be noted that all of the above figures was BEFORE the show started hitting 2m in the overnights! The Monday figure which should be released next week will be around the 2.5m mark as it got 2.2m in the overnights. That 2.31, for Sunday was up drastically from 1.89m that the overnights got.

It has risen a lot again after Bank Holiday Weekend Drop.

Last night got 2.07m incl +1. Half a million up on Sunday.

It started to decline steadily when C4 had it, as expected with a show run over so many years, they just get stale. C4 needed to have a rethink, change it a bit to refresh it, or just let it lay dormant for a few years, and it might have been fine then. BB also started to interfer too much to steer nominations and eviction a certain way, especially with the side shows.

Since C5 got hold of it, their mistake has been to completely ignore what the fans want as if they deliberately want to p*ss them off, and to do away with 99% or what seems like it of live feed, and also show highly edited clips and with twitter nonsense so skewed out of context and badly written, it is ridiculous.


Their shows always seem to start off with so much promise, then they inevitably start to decline. They need to start listening to the fans of the show and start the live feed again even if it's only so many hours a day, and also let the fans suggest some of the tasks as BB allowed in BB2, and consequently that series ended up with some of the best tasks because of it, showing the fans know better what is needed to keep the show on keel, which of course they would as they are the captive audience.

That's fantastic, back up again.

Awesome ratings for this time of year, and no doubt amazing for Channel 5.

I've just examined BARB. This is what i see for the show:

CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER (WED 2100) 2.83
CELEBRITY BB: LIVE FROM THE HOUSE (WED 2300) 1.79
CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER (THU 2200) 2.00
CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER (FRI 2100) 2.00
CELEBRITY BB: LIVE FROM THE HOUSE (FRI 2201) 2.06
CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER (SAT 2110) 1.62
CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER (SUN 2100) 2.06

:suspect:

Those are excl +1. The +1 have added around 300-400k to some of them.

With +1

CBB Launch- 2.96m (incl +1)
Launch Live From The House- 1.79m (excl +1)
Thursday- 2.0m (excl +1)
Friday HLs- 2.18m (incl +1)
Friday Live Feed- 2.22m (incl +1)
Satutrday- 1.82m (incl +1)
Sunday- 2.31m (incl +1)

Right. Sorry about that. Got a bit confused.

Excellent figures.

:worship:
Besides, why cant he admit that it would get more on other channels like ITV, that have far more reputation?

Why do i need to admit that? LOL

Go away im really not interested in your opinion.

Anyway, good ratings for last night :)

That's good news the ratings are rising again.
