Overnight ratings count people who watch it live as it airs or within a few hours of it airing (say on pause, on +1 or live online for example) then official ratings add everyone who has recorded it and watched on catch up. For BB18 the average overnight was 865k and then the average catch up was 375k so the official average was 1.24 million.
None of the ratings yet count people who watch on demand (on My5 etc) but that’s changing in September, when they’ll start adding on demand viewers to the official ratings figures which should boost B.B. by a few 100k
