Predictions?

I'm thinking about 2.6m for launch

It's against

BBC1: Silent Witness
BBC2: Yellowstone (no idea what that is)
ITV: Robson Crusoe: A Surprising Adventure
C4: 24 Hours in A&E

2.8

Competition seems easier against mainly old people shows

IMO the launch will flop and so will the series. :(

2.0M launch, drops to 1.4m on Day 2.

I think launch will rate quite high considering how long it was trending for, it's still trending now:dance:

I have a feeling the launch rating will be a flop, but I hope I'm wrong.

Do we find out later today? Overnights

And what would count as a flop for Jan CBB?

RATINGS

Celebrity Big Brother launched with 2.32 million viewers last night, down 500k on last January and 1 million down on 2015 and down on the summer CBB launch of 2.36m.

Previous January launches:
2.8m
3.3m
3.4m
3.5m
3.5m

Damn, and there wasn't much competition either.

mess

I'm hoping launch was just a fluke then, like BBUK. That had the least watched launch on C5 but the series average ended up the second highest. Wasn't this bad though :shocked:

Tbf launch show ratings are becoming less relevant as the years go on

This

I'm not even sure why it's dropped so much?
Because launches are nothing special these days?
Because CBB is over?
Because Bear and the manipulation ruined it for People?
Because the GP have absolutely no interest in All Stars?
Or because the leaked lineup was genuinely just rubbish?

Huh..
officials will probably be up yet again though so could end up averaging around 2.8 across the series like last year.

Isn't that still like 3x what any other channel 5 show gets tho. Hopefully it holds up and doesn't flop on the first highlights

Loads avoided it because Speidi was brought back. It makes the show a scripted mess.

I think +1 should bring it up by alot actually

That was with +1. It was 2.14m without it :umm2:

It's not great by any means but it was still 2nd in the slot last night.

People dont watch live TV anymore

Sorry I meant officials but yeah it's not looking good :umm2:

the most watched tv show over Christmas had the lowest audience of any most watched Christmas shows ever

It's poor being down half a million. But 2.32m is still fantastic for C5. Not for Winter CBB, but I knew it would be damaged after the previous CBB.

It all depends on it's retention now. It can fall or it can stay incredibly stable (something the likes of CBB13/15 and BB17 did), so you never know.

I'm predicting 1.7m tonight. We won't know the real success until the officials I guess. Less and less people are watching TV live now, and i remember the last couple of BB series were gaining around 700k on timeshift, so you can never say it's doing badly.

I don't wantto defend ratings all the time but I agree.

Like I said, BB used to gain only 200k on timsehift back in C4 days, nowadays it's been 500k-600k, Saturday episodes last year were timeshifting almost 1m!

IMO last nights launch was around 2.8m officially.
