1.98m last night (11.2%)

BOTS got 662k (7.0%)

Share up 2.8% and rating down 400k on yesterday. In the 9pm slot, with the same share (it wouldn't have managed it, more competition, so hypothetically) it would have got 2.67m.

The share is more important, so that's good that it managed to do well in that slot.

I love how optimistic you allways are.

So it got under 2 million?

Does that figure include +1? Obviously plus 1 wont add much anyway due to the time it was on.

The share is good i have to say.

Just hope they really stir it up tonight withthis "twist" to get that average back up.

2m is good for 10pm. Here's a rating FACT. 10pm shows will ALWAYS do worse than 9pm shows because it's on later, but the share will always be higher.

And, that figure does not incl +1. The +1 would be just under 100k though because judging by history in other series, at 11pm, it is very difficult to get 100k+.

So with +1 I reckon it added around 80k which would make it 2.06m. Tonight it is on at 9pm and it's an eviction, we should see the highest rating since launch.

I see tonight hitting 2.3-4

I would love to see a 2.6 tonight just to bring that average up.

C'mon BB!!! lol

That's not optimism, that's maths. 23.84 million were watching TV at 9pm, 11.2% (BB's share) of 23.84 is (rounded) 2.67m. I didn't say it would have got the same share at 9pm, in fact I said it almost definitely wouldn't, I'm simply pointing out with the same competition as at 10 but that 23.84m viewers (not going to happen this year) and the same percentage of viewers opting for BB, the rating we'd be looking at would be 2.67m this morning. It's not a massive achievement, there wasn't much on and the decrease in viewers around because of the later slot far exceeded the increase in percentage, but it's interesting to note never the less.

Against Africa, Stargazing Live, Midsomer Murders and One Born Every Minute tonight, Africa should get 6m+ and Midsomer repeats well but I think there's a big enough difference in audience between a Midsomer repeat and CBB to edge it 2.4m including +1, not predicting it as if I'd predicted the last few nights a week or two ago, I'd have gotten them wrong, but wouldn't be surprised.

2.27m (9.5%) incl +1. Peak of 2.75m at 10pm.

I exected more, but at least it was the highest rated since launch. I actually expect it to stay around the same or even increase tonight as it is BB's best rating day today and I don't think any competition is on (just like with when the launch was on).

BOTS got 954k.

Well I guessed it would be around the 2.3 mark, didn't CBB9's first eviction get something similar?

It beat Jasmine's eviction by 20k, I think it also beat Andrew's eviction in the first week of CBB9 too.

Yeah i expected more to.

Andrews eviction got 2.1 originally I thought

Actually your right.
It's the highest rated eviction since CBB8 I think.

That's great to see the show beat cbb 9 and 10 on eviction nights so far :D

Natalie and Kirk's eviction got 2.6 million in CBB9

Officially? Maybe.

No way!?!? :D

Natalie and Kirk's double got 2.5m

Was that overnight?

Yeah.

If this hour's live feed wasn't enough to kill off this series viewership, nothing is :sleep:.

Interesting article about Channel 5 audience shares uplift in 2012, it's not much but it's something http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...audience-share

CelebrityBigBrother last night averaged 1.97m (8.1%). Includng +1 it averaged 2.15m.

Hmm, it seems that its stuck to around that area now. Wonder what live feed got
