Yep, quite interesting.

In comparison Big Brother Australias latest episode drew only 86k viewers 😬

871k for last night. Deserved imo a terrible episode and there was no excuse not to do a live eviction

It’s a very average series really, nothing super memorable.

It's rated well. With device data it'll probably be the most watched series since BB11 (2010).

An overnight average of 932,000 viewers, with just today and tomorrow left of the series. Not too shabby considering 95% of the episodes have been on ITV2.

How did our penultimate episode of the series do?

872k (6.9%) according to Broadcast. Think tonight's final will have a combined 1.5m.

This weeks episodes have been boring tbh so whilst it was good we had a few episodes over 1 million I’m not surprised people turned off. Not a massive drop though and it’s rated consistently all series.

Even those ratings beat a lot of the ones from 3/4 weeks ago. Yesterday's might have done better if they'd advertised the eviction a bit more than a 30 second mention at the very end of L&L

Predictions for tonight’s finale? Personally I think 1.3.

Yeah I reckon 1.2/1.3

Sounds like it good be a predictable final

I'll go optimistic with 1.6m

I can’t imagine them showing it on ITV1 again

I think it would be to be getting 2M overnight for that

For low 1 million on both channels not worth it

1.26m for the final.

Quite low

Expected a bit higher tbh

I guessed 1.3 so basically spot on. It was up against children in need and the football. Overall the series has been a ratings success but saying that the finale deserved atleast 2 million.

Not great but why would you watch it if you hadn't followed the series

What have the last few finals got on overnights?

BB19 1.01 officially it was under 1 million in overnights. BB18 1.11 officially.

I don’t know how much the officials will add to this finale but it does seem to have an audience of about 2 million however Ide assumed more people would have tuned in to see the winner crowned live.

It’s not a good rating let’s be honest.

Okay cool so the official for this final should be at least 50% higher than those. That was also 5/6 years ago and TV viewership has gone down a lot even just since then. I read that ten years ago over 20 million were watching live TV between 9-10pm and now it's only half that

But yeah still a bit disappointing. What did the MAFS final get?

Overnight ratings average for BB20 was 939,000 viewers. Not bad considering how it fared against MAFS and Bake-Off (amongst other shows). And compared to BB19's overnight ratings, the ratings were significantly better.

MTVN, you aren't wrong there. I mean the BBUS25 final got like 3 million viewers, when the BBUS15 final from 10 years ago got like 6-7 million viewers.

Gogglebox does well on channel 4

Gets about 3.5M in officials per episode

Any news on the officials?

I just checked Thinkbox. Still shows the officials that came out last week.

According to Wikipedia…

Mon 1.50
Tue 1.56
Wed 1.54
Thurs 1.56
Fri 1.19
Sun 1.65

That Friday rating can’t be right, surely?
