Oh **** off, it came last? D:

Not all those ratings were in direct competition with BB I was just responding to you asking if everything was down on tv last night which it wasn't.

I think BB came 3rd or 4th im not sure.

+1 hasn't been released AGAIN!!

A 5.6% share isn't too bad. The share is pretty much on par with other episodes.

Please can we stop this ratings are poor stuff.. they're poor in your opinion. Just because they are lower than 2013 does not automatically mean they are 'poor'. The producers and C5 will be the ones who decide whether they are poor, satisfactory or good.

I think they've added the +1 rating to that then but that would be a hell of a +1 figure. Then again it is ITV.

Its still not a great rating as that tweet says so wasn't really much competition for BB or other shows which did well against it.

*Bangs head against wall.

1.09 for an eviction.

That's my last word.

Theres nothing else I can say to anyone now who are stuck in their ratings are fine ways.

Pauline and Helen
 

I'm glad Pauline is out and I would love to get Helen out but I think she has learnt her lesson. She is the Slug!!! Have you noticed when she got called to the diary room about her bullying she has now decided to be friends with Jale, tactical or what. Now all the sheep have decided to be nice to Jale just because Helen Pauline are being nice to her.

This, Yes it got 1.09 but to be fair everything was down a bit and the maybe a some BB viewers were watching the World cup it was also Hot yesterday so some people would of gone out, But like I said the Officials will improve the rarings

probably like me they had no interest in paulines eviction. awful woman. and who wants to go through a live show and adverts and all that nonsence just for a few clips of other stuff.
especially when there was a game on the other site. a good one. and other things on

also bare in mind its summer most people are out not sitting at home like us sados lol

people want to watch fun sneakyness like dexter or s &m dancing and sex stuff. they dont really want to watch some old hag being evil and some hoe and another clone being nasty. its just not entertaining.
the key to good viewers is sex/fun/time slots/characters.

Well lets wait for the million pound drop thats going to kill us, what did stand by your man get?

This is all a matter of opinion at the end of the day. The only people who really know whether the ratings are great, crap or whether the show is going down the route of being cancelled are the producers and C5.

All we can do is interpret them in our own ways.

[QUOTE=JohnnyBB;6963420]Well lets wait for the million pound drop thats going to kill us, what did stand by your man get?[/QUOTE]

Ive been trying to find that seeing as it flopped so hard last week.

I reckon about 250k hopefully someone can dig it out.

No we can judge if a rating is poor, the figures are all out there in the public domain for all of us to see.

Just to let you know aswell when im talking about the ratings I am in no way reffering or thinking about it being axed.

Just simply the ratings.

That really is my final word lol.

Yes we can judge but what we judge is our opinion. It is not fact as many people seem to try and make it out as (not aiming this at you btw, being general). For all we know the producers and C5 are happy with the ratings and see no problems... or they're having regular panic meetings trying to find a way of not losing the show.

This constant bickering between people that think ratings are poor and people that think ratings are good is quite tedious to see. It's like neither side can accept people have different views... which is inevitable on a forum.

Oh yes I know you're not talking about the show being axed. I was just being general about this forum as a whole since quite a few people are not happy with ratings lol.

Anyway I'm neutral about the ratings, I think they're steady and good, but I'm not jumping out my seat like I was for BB14's ratings. I think it'll be 50/50 whether these ratings affect the show being renewed or not.

Big Brother got 1.25 million viewers and a 6.4% share in total. That's still fairly good. Officials could bump it up to 1.5 or 1.6 but we should remember, it's hot. On Fridays people are likely to be out more, World Cup fever may have impacted that. Imagine all those viewers who decided to stay out after the game, we should also take into account that although some 4 million were watching the World Cup on TV a hell of a lot will be watching it through socialising e.g. Pubs, clubs, parties. So I'd estimate the rating closer to 5 million in fact. It does appear that Friday ratings will continue to be low, perhaps this is the new trend, nonetheless the rating is not poor it is still fair. It's above the million mark and is over Channel 5s annual 3.9% share, so is still making a healthy return profit. Stop with all the negativity. Peace out :dance:

It also came 4th in the timeslot, it was narrowly beaten by C4.. But let's be honest, they are two very distinct audience markets. 8OOTC is more male based, BB is more female based.

Where did you get the 1.25 million viewers from? Where was that reported and if that's correct it should have come 3rd in its timeslot up against 8 out of 10 cats which got 1.18 unless that got a higher +1?

Seriously though where did you get the 1.25 from because no one can seem to find the plus 1 figures and its annoying the hell out of us lol. BB could be rating far higher than we realise and its not getting reported.

The ratings are absolutely dreadful, especially for an eviction. People need to face facts - this series is in real trouble!

I think the main issue is that's a really bad time for the show to be getting bad ratings, when the contract renewal is up in the air and all.

Yes but remember its hot, the world cup is on (lowest rated game last night and not competition), maybe people went out to the pub, its Friday night, maybe people were tired, maybe a lot of women were having babies.

Its allways been on on a Friday night and its allways been in the summer.

C'mon people face facts.

I do however think +1 will add a significant amount and bump the ratings up but then again I think an overnight rating is far more important to the channel.

Its only now really im starting to see how important the ratings are this year as we haven't heard anything of it being renewed. I thought the news would have come out by now.

So is 1.25 the +1 I'm confused

With the plus 1 I think yeah but no one has posted a source as to where they got this +1 figure from.

I hope its true, even though that would still be lower than we all expected it still looks a hell of a lot better than just over a million.

Officials will be released Monday so we will finally be able to see how popular the show is online and with catchup. The figures are usually impressive and will bring a sigh of relief to those who are afraid of the show being axed.

Fingers crossed.

My fear is that Channel 5 do not want the show any more - they are making very little effort to improve the ratings, especially when the contract is up for renewal. It seems as if they do not care whether or not it is a success. Getting rid of the two hours of daily live feed was a blow to the devoted hardcore fans and the housemate selection was dreadful.

They even dropped the Live From The House show after evictions even though we was told we would still get it.

I can't find the link now but it said BB got 1.25m with +1 and 8OOTC got 1.08m without +1.. hence why it was fourth in its timeslot, as firstly +1 isn't in the same timeslot and secondly, 8OOTC got higher when you compare this show and BB without +1...

You cant find the link?

How did you find it in the first place? Google? Twitter?

ffs.

The link to the ratings website. It's much better than DS and the others. You need to sort your negativity, please just talk about ratings within the thread.

Don't tell me what to do I was talking about the ratings.

If there's a link to show the ratings are higher then why not post we all wanna see the actual ones seeing as DS aren't publishing plus 1 its making the show look like its flopping when in reality it may not be.


You need to sort your posts out and start posting links if you're going to post something disproving what another post says.

Terrible, especially for an eviction.

Shh don't be negative.

:fist: It's hard to be positive with eviction ratings like that. No amount of sunshine and football can make a little over 1m viewers look good. :laugh:

I know I don't understand how people can even defend such a poor overnight.

When I posted it I actually thought for the first time people would come to their senses and acknowledge it was a poor rating but still its excuse after excuse.

The officials had better be good :(
There wasn't any excuse for last night - especially when you consider that 8 out of ten cats didn't beat BB at all last year.

the excuse is that the show is nowhere near as good as the previous c5 civilian series. so the ratings are lower. they wont climb much either as the weeks draw on and the show becomes somewhat more boring.

they must be itching to get started on CBB

I don't understand. Unless the +1 figure was 300k+, I am disappointed. It doesn't make sense that two nights this week got 1.4m, and the eviction gets 1.09m? There must be something iffy about that surely. The France match had the lowest rating for a WC game at that time so we can't blame that either. I'm confused.

I can't defend it, the +1 would have to have been large. Something odd for sure with last nights rating.

Edit- Wait, what? So it was 1.25m incl?

I'm hoping for uplifts of half a million as the first few days got 400k uplift.

The rating was **** for the eviction not even gonna lie but I'm thinking the weather may be a contributing reason? it's been roasting hot here, not sure if it's the same elsewhere but people may be choosing to sit out in the sun/go to garden parties instead of staying in to watch tv.

It's on at 9pm and against the football tonight too.

I suppose a good thing is the ratings were awful the first week and ch5 released a statement saying they were happy with them :shrug:

I wonder if because BB is something that you have to be completely dedicated to to watch it all the way through, people didn't bother from the start as they would rather watch the World Cup?

Yeah I mentioned that earlier in the thread and think it's definitely possible.
