It’s calculated with how many average viewers are watching. So at exactly 9:07pm there might be 1.245 million watching for that minute, and that average is added to all the other 1 minute averages throughout the hour to give the rating for the episode. So if you look at big tv shows like the BGT final, it averaged 9 million and had a 1 minute peak of 11 million during the results because more people flicked over for that part
