Default Early reports say that 20Mil Watched Final

Early reports from ITN say that a incredible 20 Million people watched the final last night.

If true, then that's double last years ratings.


I do think that it is very unlikely that this is true - I mean 8 Million votes were cast so i would say about 10-11 Million viewers.

I wouldn't say the amount of votes mattered because a lot of people dont vote anyway, so it still could have been 20mill

No way is that right - about 10 million watched last year's final.

It's like Kate Thornton saying 8 million people voted when, in fact, there were a lot of multiple votes.

Just the ITV hype-machine.

I've just read in a news article that a confirmed 12.6 Mill watched the show... I'll try and dig it back out for a source...

Found it!

Also shows how, like many of you have said, Simon, Sharon and Louis will be dancing around with glee... and this time it isn't for Leona!

Yep, you got it!

Money makes the world go round.

Simon, and all of the judges, I might add, would do anything, or befriend anybody if there was money in it for them.

For example, Simon's Britain's Talent show... if the British public fall in love with a man with 4.5 tongues that can spit fire whilst singing 'Rule Britannia', Simon'd be the "most proudest person" of them aswell!

... Which is awful grammar, I must add, lool!
