Im sure we all assumed it would dip under 1 million anyway.

Not rocket science is it.

When are we getting the offiical rating and what happend to inside bigbrother ?

2 weeks i think?

Dont know what happened to insidebigbrother but i allways used to go there to check ratings :(

That was the 17th ..... :pat:

Mine's dated the 14th ..... :hmph:

Noones impressed.

same i hope they are back soon. I really hope the officials are much better.

IBB used to be cracking for the rating breakdowns but they completely lost it this year. It seems like they've just given up. They didn't even have that cool show retrospective section this year that had graph charts of the ratings and a little paragraph about what the fans thought of the series.

Gutted but expected... not going to go all dramatic going BIG BROTHER IS DEAD IT'S NO LONGER BIG BROTHER... like I've seen before.

Well some people even on here thought BB would only get or barely get 1 million anyway for the whole series.

I am not a doomwatch person,I believe Channel 5 can turn this around if they want to, but we do not need to see the build up again to the evictions on the Saturdays highlight show, the earlier half of the Saturday show still has the evicted housemate in it.

The Saturday highlights should be from after the eviction rather than showing the eviction again, even to showing Tashie climbing the stairs to go out and waiting for the doors to open, we saw all that the night before and on the 2 repeats shown on Saturday too.

With such limited footage time anyway, all should start afresh on the Saturday's highlights from after the eviction not before it.

That awful ratings, but im not surprised really, cause of the lack of LF

Why would they miss out a whole portion of the day though?

This is such a stupid post lol.

You are basically saying that last nights show should have only consisted of footage after 11pm from Friday. SERIOSULY?!

We need to see what happens throughout the day everyday. All of last nights footage bar the 5 minutes they covered the eviction was new footage.

And if they did do what you are saying we would not have seen Rebeckhas out burst at Harry last night.

:rolleyes:

I don't call your posts stupid so please refrain from calling mine so,thank you.

Actually yes, I personally ( likely most others wouldn't)would prefer that, they don't do that much on eviction day anyway.
Really I would like more footage, I fail to see the need when we have just had part of the highlights programme on friday taken up with the announcement of the eviction on eviction night to then have the next nights highlights taken up in part with the same thing.

There are 2 repeats of BB on daily, one on Channel 5 and the other on 5*, we do not need to see again the eviction build up process in a 4th transmission.

As to the outburst of Rebeckah to Harry, I concede the highlights should start from after the announcement of who was being evicted then of course we would have seen it,that's a valid point.

100% disagree sorry.

I dont want to miss everything thats happened in the day. What if a massive argument kicked off or something happens thats crucial to the storylines being played in the normal highlights.

No sorry.

So you say ..... :idc:

I pretty much made my peace with BB ending last year. Didn't expect it to do well when I heard C5 had bought the rights so I'm hardly surprised. I don't think anyone else should be either. This year's series (although very entertaining) feels very rushed. They seemed to put all of their efforts into CBB and assumed the viewers would stay tuned for the main show. We can only hope C5 learn by their mistakes and do everything in their power to make next year's show a success.

It's nothing to worry about, Saturdays are a tough night in television since BBC1 and ITV pretty much totally dominate which is why the Saturday BB shows always rank pretty low since everyone's either out or watching the main channels. I'm guessing that the ratings will pick up again now and stick to the millions range and then dip again on saturdays. Low ratings only mean trouble when they are consistent and generally BB has been C5's best rated show currently on the air.

tonight bb up against spooks and downton abbey 9pm

I'm guessing that less than 1m will be the norm for BB from this week onwards ..... mainly because it's no longer "fashionable" to watch ..... ;)

Last night: 1.2m (4.6%)

Decent... Downtown Abbey was the focal point for many last night, myself included.

It wll be 1.4 plus this week i think. It had alot of competition last night.

Yeah I think it will stick at 1.3/4 for the rest of the week, especially tomorrow as I think it's only competition is Shameless?

I am surprised at that,was expecting 0.8 or something around that.

Wish they were higher but not really bad for a Sunday.

4.6% is the lowest share ever?

Proving once again that Big Brother loves the 9:00pm slot,but as usual Channel 5 want it cancelled by keep changing its time slots all the ****ing time.

Big Brother: 1.4m (8.0%) for what was a weaker more kiddie aimed type highlight show.

Hmm ratings haven't been great then, if it stays around 1.4/5m then I think they would be happy, I know that basically any ratings above a couple of hundred thousand are better than C5 normally get but BB was such a big investment I'd imagine they'd be dissapointed if it starts to drag in less than a million viewers on a regular basis

The producers know their demographics, then ..... :joker:

Slight improvement over the past couple of nights, I thought it was a great highlights show... and it deserved a slight ratings boost.

Should get around 1.44 tonight with the new series of Later Live and Shameless.

So about 50% of the audience for CBB8 then?

Not good!

At least it's improvement from the ****ty ratings from the days before.

1.46m for BB last night.

Slowly improving... I think it will stick at this during the week... get a decent ratings for the eviction shows... 1.7-1.9

and be abysmal on Saturday's

So when are we getting the officials?

Apparently Tuesday got 1.6 not 1.4

Wednesday 21st September Ratings
22:00- Big Brother: 1.3m (7.7%)

Last nights episode deserved alot more.

Oooh and it takes a slight dip again... I do think it'll be back around 1.4-1.5 tonight and the eviction should get a fair deal of people watching.

This series deserves ratings 3 million plus in my opinion.

If this was on straight after BB5 it would have averaged about 4.9 i reckon.

Its awesome

Shame it dipped, last night was a really good episode

Channel 4 are slaying Channel 5 in the ratings.

Channel 4

Channel 4's Location, Location, Location leapt to 2.63m (11.4%) at 8pm (+1: 200k). Grand Designs continued with 2.61m (10.9%) at 9pm (+1: 308k

Channel 5

Emergency Bikers dipped to 1.03m (4.5%) for Channel 5 at 8pm, before Law & Order: Criminal Intent lured 818k (3.4%).

Big Brother fetched 1.36m (7.8%) in the 10pm hour, before Big Brother's Bit on the Side notched up 170k (1.8%) for 5*.



Overall, ITV1 led primetime with 21.9% (+1: 1%), ahead of BBC One's 17.6%, Channel 4's 8.7% (+1: 0.9%), BBC Two's 5.6%, and Channel 5's 4.2%.
