In pretty sure 1.2M when England are playing is outstanding ratings, and ratings have been quite good, apart from a couple. Do you think tellymix are correct?

[daniel-lewis-1985]

The show has had bad ratings.

Its a shame and there will be a flood of comments here now defending it with every excuse under the sun.

Even with the world cup the episodes not facing any competition have been way down, it seems people chose to watch either BB or the world cup this year as both need a lot of time invested into them.

Even without the world cup after launch night part 1 think it would probably still be doing poorly in the ratings as it didnt particularly have a good response from the viewing public.

BB has had terrible ratings. It will be off air soon, no doubt.

[Jamesy]

I thought it has been doing pretty damn fine, especially the past few days. 1.2-1.4m per night is around the same as previous C5 series. The first week was a bit crap but it has picked up now. Don't see what's so bad about that.

[Josy]

They aren't as bad as some are saying

[Anothercat]

I think this years has been quite good, certainly more entertaining than last year

[Marsh.]

Is BB on its last legs 4 years after the "last ever" one?

[Samm]

It's against the Football

This. If I remember it was the same last year? And it's against the world cup so it's fine. Don't sweat about it.

OMG shhhhh! lol

Please look at the ratings on nights when it wasn't against the football and still could barely hold onto 1 million viewers.

Last years overnight average' were 1.6 this year it's 1.2.

Theres a reason there re articles like this, people aren't making it up its fact that the ratings are down and by more then people expected.

They are still high though. There wasn't the world cup last year.

[InOne]

We're in the digital age. Rating don't mean much at all any more

[Jay.]

That's true, I don't think ratings count on demand views do they? What about recordings?

No it hasn't.

Its down on last year even when the footballs not on fgs go and compare the ratings from highlights from lst year and this year and then come back.

You are talking nonsense.

It's been against the football every night and it clashes like 30 min in, people won't watch 30 min in they will watch it On Demand or on the repeats

Well tbf, people that are watching the football and haven't been watching BB would more than likely find it pointless watching even when the footballs not on because they wont have a clue whats been happening.

On Demand etc, counts in the official ratings they are brought out a few weeks later

Its different with a show like Big Brother where it relies on votes and is largely interactive.

People catching up after the weekend wouldn't have voted ect.

I know they have product placement ect but surely they must be disappointed with the money voting brings in seeing as even the hardcore BB fans admit on here don't even vote.

[LukeB]

am i the only one who thinks 1.2 and 1.3 is still good in ratings. people also watch it on plus 1 and on demand.

That's not true it hasn't clashed with the football every night plus the football wasn't on from the start.

Go and look at the ratings thread or a tv guide.

BB has not clashed with football everynight at all and football has ended before some highlights have aired on some nights.

Hence ratings being down.

That's what I said.
