Bloody hell, the shows doing great!

[Loukas]

The show is doing better than i thought it would

[Jake.]

2.7 for last night is just... wow

And those officials are simply amazing

[Samm]

the task was amazing last night tbh

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I take it back Salv I think you may be right with this series averaging 2.9 lol lets hope for a big finale rating!

Wonder what last nights 2.7 will get in officials

[g17m]

Can't believe how well this series is doing, i'm glad last night got the ratings it did because last night's show was one of the best ones of the series in my opinion, hopefully some of those people stick around and C5 advertise the final a bit to give it as much of a boost as possible!

The show continued with strong ratings with 2.60m including +1

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Benefits Street got 5.28 including plus 1 on Channel 4.

They have finally found their new Big Brother but it will be short lived as was Big Fat Gypsy wedding in my opinion.

Agree. Ch4 have a habit of milking a show if its successful (Gypsy Wedding, Location Location, Grand Designs), etc...

Pretty sure things like 24 Hrs in A&E are getting less than half of the ratings than they did a a couple of years back.

Benefits Street will probably have a 2nd series then it will flop it won't be a big show

Yre because Channel 5 would never milk a successful show anywho, Im loving benefits street but the ratings will go down, but I always watch it on +1 of course. I think C5 need to take leaf and do more controversial shows like C4 does, didnt realise how contro C5 could be till they took on CBB

[Rob!]

Benefit street will quickly start to fail once people get bored of tuning in to feel outraged.

[zakman440]

Benefits Street getting high ratings

Alright ratings for CBB though.

Disgusting ratings for that exploitative, inflammatory and demeaning piece of crap on C4

If they have a "Celebrity Tax-Evasion Street" Jim Davidson could take part

[Jake.]

2.52 inc +1

[*mazedsalv**]

As consistant as ever. Every episode bar Saturday has been the highest rated of the previous weeks. Eg. Sunday was the highest Sunday rating, Monday highest Monday of the series etc...

This week is just half way through, but here are the weekly overnight averages. This week looks set to be highest of CBB13.

Week 1 (boosted by launch night)- 2.48m
Week 2- 2.37m
Week 3- 2.43m SO FAR.

With tonight, tomorrow and Friday, it looks set to overtake W1.

[Jake.]

It really is doing brilliantly

[Loukas]

It's well deserved, this series has be amazing so far!
