It will get similar numbers tonight. The real test is Sunday and Mondays ratings.

[Jake.]

2.07m last night according to DS (inc +1)

[*mazedsalv**]

2.07m makes it one of the highest (2nd ever I think) ever Saturday rating episodes since the move to Channel 5 (and yes that counts all CBB and BB series).

[Jake.]

Jesus! Yeah because I saw that it beat the last two first CBB Saturdays, so that's great

[SSL2012]

****ing hell, that's a good rating. I'll go for 2.4mil tonight.

[BB IS ALIVE]

Brilliant Saturday ratings, can't quite believe it increased from a Friday to a Saturday?

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Its really good considering the timeslot.

Heres the first Saturday ratings for previous series to compare (bear in mind they are all officials so this 2.07 will rise).

I can see this series matching CBB9 easily.

CBB11: 2.07 (unnoficial)
CBB10: 1.82
CBB9: 2.29
CBB8: 3.15

[Raph]

Fantastic ratings!

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

That's brilliant ratings, hope it keeps up.

Awesome

[DigitalSid]

Predictions for BB tonight? Competition is stiff, Ripper Street, The Iron Lady, and Mr Selfridge, the middle of which is the network premiere of an only 2 year old Oscar winning film, the latter of which has a Dancing On Ice lead in, and all of which are big budget.

I still think it could get 2.4

I'm not so sure, C4 should manage 2m+ for The Iron Lady, possibly more. Meryl Streep won best actress at the Oscars for it and as I say, it only came out in 2011 and the other two should both manage 4 or 5 m +. Combined they're bigger competition than EastEnders, and it's a Sunday.

Sunday is usually BB's biggest day though with people tuning in after the weekend.

Im going to watch the Iron Lady on +1.

Hopefully they advertise tonight.

Isn't Thursday BB's biggest day? That's why I always predict Thursday launches and am usually right.

I'm watching Mr Selfridge on +1 and recording Iron Lady for 11.

Hopefully they advertise tonight.

There will probably an ad during DOI, but I can see most of those that stick around after it watching Mr Selfridge, with ITV likely to plug the hell out of it throughout.

Maybe actually im thinking back in the day Sunday used to get considerably more ratings than Saturday.

Saturday's just by far the lowest day.

CBB9:

Thursdays - 2.86, 2.51, 2.78 - Avg: 2.72m

Sundays - 2.63, 2.07, 2.26 - Avg: 2.32m

Thursday beat Sunday by - 230k, 440k, 520k - Avg beat: 397k

Not including launch Thurs, official ratings.

[SSL2012]

Comp is tough, but theres a core 2mil audience that will stick with it regardless of what's on, I think this cbb is attracting more casuals aswell.

So for that reason the minimum it will get is around 2.1 with +1 I woulda thought, I do think it will hit 2.4 maybe more if that ITV advert rumour is true. With +1 btw.
People are skint, and I think the audience range will be higher tonight then most if not all weekends around the year.

Ethier way ch 5 will be thrilled, nothing else they could offer would come close to that.

For the series yes, for the night, no, otherwise Saturdays wouldn't sometimes dip under it. I don't think it will sink below 2m though just yet.

does anyone know what bots got last night? Just curious coz I was on there haha

You were (not) seen by 324k (2.1%).

[BB IS ALIVE]

Isn't 324k quite good for BOTS on 5*?

Yeah, but that's not saying much. Usually gets around 270k.

[*mazedsalv**]

UK TV Ratings ‏@TVRatingsUK
#CelebrityBigBrother last night averaged 2.00m (7.4%) on Channel 5, with 194k on +1. #CBB

So that is 2.2m. Again, climbing from the previous episode.

[Jake.]

CBB10 got 2.31 officially, so that's not bad at all
