It's the same system for every show in the country. The panel is socially economically diverse ect so each demographic is represented- it's not just a random selection

You need to research. Nilsen is far ahead than BARB & you fail to mention a big reason why we are not like most countrys. The TV licence. Which affects how audiences is mesured considerably different to say the US & Canada.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nielsen_ratings
There are also 112 MILLION Nielsen familes & 320million live in the US & around 96% own a tv (so thats what 317million) Our systems are waaay different and we only represent a pathetic 3% whilst US Nielsen ratings represents 50-80% go do your homework man because the facts tell me our rating system is not as accurate & from the way you guys moan is kinda sad because these arent atall accurate when delt with facts n key stats & comparisons. But if you still disproove this then im sad for you bro)

That's what they get for this and last series ****ty series.

This series is screaming for an Armageddon twist to create interest. It's never in the news, social media, youtube etc. IMO this series just lacks a general buzz. I won't go as far as to say its boring, it's just not as entertaining as we've had recently.

Yeah probably will do something like that, Arm.... Was good apart from Danieel being robbed of her place in the house. The best thing was Marlon going

Marlon going... The first time someone was evicted without a public vote. One of the low points of last years show. Another example of the show being rigged. And that was the best part of it?

As long as someone annoying goes the it's good

It really isn't. That's what they're trying to do at the moment and it's making the show worse.

The show needs to strip back and focus on regaining (or even retaining) viewers through methods that aren't twists to rock the house to its very core.

First time in Big Brother history? BB11?

Four new housemates confirmed.

I can't believe they're airing this twist on the night that's it got SO much competition it's not even funny. There's no way this will rate well on Friday. Isn't even the +1 against something?

yeah! Hopefully they extend it till 11, so it can do well between 10-11

950k last night with +1, good share of 6.7%

Last year only got 6.0%, so this year is higher by 0.7%

Mehh feeling like the average overnights is going to hit or miss the 1million mark

950k :umm2:

not good, they're gonna need far more than 4 new entrants to boost the ratings this year (if that's even possible anymore)

Im feeling posative raitings will be on the rise after this weekend.

The share is good on that one.

Will be interesting to see what happens from Monday when the main competition (BGT) has ended.

:laugh:

Nice share, but should still have more viewers

I think it's charming how people have become so concerned about the share

will the removal improves ratings?

BB14 got 1.77, around 300k above average

so maybe 1.3 tonight

Nah it won't get that much

No ones concerned about it.

Generally it is a good indicator of how many people watching TV were watching Big Brother, and a good comparison for previous years.

The only rating that matters is the sub-million one.

Both the rating and share work hand in hand.

If they were concerned about the share they wouldn't be doing the drastic things they're doing.

Though still no Live feed :joker:
