The X Factor returned with its lowest ratings in TEN years despite Simon Cowell scrapping last year's panel
"We were trending last night and in the top 10 on Twitter," said Dave, as viewers point out that the Sunday instalment of the ITV talent show was not. "We were on at the same time as X Factor as well, so I hope the BBC take note of that as we'd love to come back and defend our title."
Dave added: "We got like 2.4m viewers.
"I told my friends to watch Robot Wars and record X Factor, at least then you can skip the adverts.
"It's a massive show to be going up against, so we're just pleased with the turnout as there are so many good TV shows out there."
On Sunday night the Robot Wars finale had 2.4million viewers and trended worldwide on Twitter for an hour afterwards.
The series returned to BBC2 with 2 million viewers at the end of July and also beat the finale of Chris Evans' Top Gear reboot - which started with 6m viewers and trailed off to just 1.9m, according to reports.

Hopefully this is enough to get it renewed!
