yet,
2 million viewers is, compared to 'everything else today' considered amazing ratings.
I haven't even looked across the boards but how many programs get 2 million viewers right now?
It cannot be very many?
C4 might have a few others doing the same or better but 2 million must be well at their own top draws?[/rquote]
x factor 6.6 million

Why are you 'patting a head' over that?
Explain?[/rquote]#
I'm with El on this one. 2 mill is a pretty good score across the channels, if not at the higher end of ratings. X-factor is a Saturday night love-in family fest - what do you expect!
BB used to pull in up to 8mill for finals night - it's the drop in ratings that is the main issue, rather than the absolute figures imo - still their most successful show
