Looks like C5 escaped by far the least hurt than the other channels whilst facing the footie. You can't say CSI and BB's fanbase aren't loyal! BB came 3rd in its slot, it was not far off ITV which got 1.8m.

Against the football...

ITV (+1 in brackets)
Love Your Garden - 2.7m (2,8m)
Benidorm - 1.4m (1.5m)
News at Ten - 1.7m (1.8m)
Piers Morgan Life Stories - 700k (800k)

BBC2
University Challenge - 1.4m
Shopgirls - 1.2m
Best of Sarah Millican - 700k
Newsnight - 400k

C4
Kirsty's Fill Your House For Free 1.3m (1.5m)
Beauty Queen or Bust - 600k (700k)
Ramseys Kitchen Nightmares - 500k (700k)

C5

Pretty good when the World Cup got 13 Million!! Compare that to some days which got like 900k and had no big games as competition.

yes! i think this series is holding up well against the world cup.

[Samm]

Very good since it was against the highest rated footballl matched and survived not going under 1 million

C4 got destroyed

[Vladimir]

Wow, that's a loyal fan base! It definitely deserved more but it did more than well against the match!

[*mazedsalv**]

I think BB is holding up very well against the semis. Last night got 1.09m excl +1 (up 60k on the night before without +1), with +1 it would be around 1.15m-1.18m I would predict.

I think if the show was done right decent cast live feed better spinoff show and better editing it could be capable of getting 2m a night

You could be right.

It does need a major refresh though with new ideas.

Thing is, bringing LF will help, but I think the promotion is the thing that would help the most. If it launches with 2m then there's no way it will stay like that through the run, it always drops, regardless how good a series is. For it to average 2m across the run, it needs a 3m+ launch figure and the way they need to do that is promote it intensely!

This year launched with 2.1m, so I knew it wouldn't stay above 1.6 in the overnights. Had it launched with 3.5m for example, then it would be averaging around 2.5m.

I'm thinking the producers can't wait for January's CBB and hope it does as good as CBB13 did. I mean these ratings are staggering for Ch5...

CBB13 Launch- 3.69m
Lee's Eviction (3 days before final)- 3.63m
CBB13 final- 3.71m *peak of 4m.

I am hoping they will axe the Summer CBB this year it gets like a Million less than the Winter CBB does, there is no need for the Summer Version

They'll never axe it because it's still up from regular BB usually by around 500-700K. Yes it's not as popular as Winter CBB, but they're hardly going to drop something that does even better than another series. If they were to drop any series, in terms of ratings - which makes money - it'd most certainly be the regular version.. even though not many are in favour of Summer CBB it often comes in 2nd or 3rd in it's time-slot, which almost all other Channel 5 shows fail to do.. sorry!

[CaudleHalbard]

I imagine it is still one of C5's highest rated shows and therefore pretty safe for the foreseeable future.

[mrmattybeck1]

Viacom takes over c5 officially on Monday I believe wounder wat their plans are I think cbb is fine but civilian bb not sure what the future for that is

[Samm]

Hopefully It gest good ratings on Friday since there is no Football and it has stayed above 1 Million for all of the Football this week

[CaudleHalbard]

Although this is a "miserable" house with not much fun, it seems to be doing well.... in the circumstances.

I love it. It's a great mix of housemates.

[mrmattybeck1]

We don't even know yet if Viacom are renewing bbuk and cbb fingers crossed we should know in the next month or two

There is no way that CBB will be axed. It would be like ITV all of a sudden cancelling IAC, BGT and X Factor on the same day.

Agree just hope civilian bb is renewed as well

[Jamesy]

I doubt the Armageddon week will improve figures at all tbh. It might get a few peoples interest although the damage was already done on launch day in my eyes.

I'm sure they will. Even though figures have been lower this year they will know why figures have been low and know what to do to get them up next year. I'm hoping if it gets renewed Viacom provide them with more money to invest into the show so it can get a good boost next year.

At the moment it feels very cheaply done with no promotion. If they promoted the show prior to launch figures would be far better. Sadly they seem to only bother promoting CBB heavily now.

[Yaki da]

I'll be turning off if Ashleigh goes. But the Aramgeddon twist might boost it a little. But when it becomes the damp squib it so obviously will be, more will turn off

I read somewhere that Viacom's Channel 5 budget was going to be way bigger than it stands today as they care about the quality of programming and are less concerned with initial costs due to the large scale of the company. I doubt they'd get rid of regular BB over CBB, can you imagine the uproar! It'd also probably mean a decline in CBB ratings if that were the case, I mean, a million people still watch regular BB, I'm pretty sure a large majority would watch the CBB series too, remove that and CBB could be unfavourable.. look at C5 and C4 ratings.. so many people turned off out of pure disgust for C4 to cancel the show, and have never come back!

I also think Viacom would do well with promotion. Look at Geordie Shore, that gets weeks of promotions, and not just on MTV.. I've seen it advertised on ITV before.. and it works! It's the most successful MTV show, regularly hitting over a million viewers per episode, and is near par with this year's BB overnight ratings.. In my eyes. Viacom taking control of BB and CBB can only be good! As long as the boards of Viacom insist that BB Producers promote well. Not tacky! We all have to remember, C5 actually has little control over BB. Instead BB producers have changed the design of the show to suit what they believe a more youthful audience want.. which channel 5 wanted!

1.09 (5.0%) for last night.
