It may have escaped your notice that the deteriorating weather over the last week has not helped BB viewing figures at all - in fact, as we know, the audience level has reached "critical mass" - if it persists below the 1,000,000 level, then its' ratings are only marginally better than the crass Katie Price shows and it becomes a monumental flop, approaching the disaster that was BBCH, which, of course, ran from 3 January to 28 January 2008, a very cold and wet part of the year .....

Celebrity Hijack brought E4 1.69 million viewers, the channel's highest audience to date for a homegrown programme, on its debut on January 3 but ended its low profile run with 644,000 viewers on the last night, January 28, eclipsed by Ross Kemp's increasingly popular series about British military operations in Afghanistan on Sky One.
The long-running reality show, shunted from Channel 4 to E4 after last year's racism row, captured a 3.1% share of viewing in multichannel homes between 8.30pm and 10.10pm, bringing the series to a subdued close, according to unofficial overnights.
By comparison, the final of Celebrity Big Brother scored 5.8 million viewers for Channel 4 in January 2007.
