Total (inc. +1) = 9.94 million/39.2%; peak (ex. +1) = 11.2 million. It's ironic how Saturday's edition had 9.2 million with +1 added, yet yesterday had the exact same without.

Sorry, I didn't see you'd already posted it.

No worries

[Redway]

Here's how Saturday's launch show fared in comparison to previous years' figures:

Spoiler:

2004 - 4.9 million (+4.3m)
2005 - 6.6 million (+2.6m)
2006 - 7.0 million/37% (+2.2m)
2007 - 9.5 million/45% (-0.3m)
2008 - 10.2 million/48.2% (-1.1m)
2009 - 9.91 million/47.9% (-0.7m)
2010 - 11.28 million/48.6%) (-2.08m)
2011 - 11.30m/47.9% (-1.6m)
2012 - 8.71m/ 42.3% (+0.49m)

Pretty poor in comparison to earlier on (bar the first few years, which weren't that popular) but a gradual increase on last year. Hopefully, it'll build momentum and continue to attract viewers who dropped off last year.

This years X Factor has started off really badly, hopefully we'll find someone good soon.

[Redway]

Any predictions for tonight?

[Samm]

I think X factor will get 6 million or 7 million tonight

[Redway]

I'm guessing 8.3 million, with around 400k on +1.

[Samm]

The X Factor continued with 7.94m (36.3%) at 8pm (355k/1.8%), down 840k on last week's debut. It peaked at 8.59m at 8.30pm.

The Xtra Factor 667k (3.3%) at 9pm

[Redway]

The rating is actually all right, especially with +1 included (8.3m/38.1%).

[Redway]

9.11 million (35.5%), with 525k/2.3% over on +1. Total = 9.64m (37.8%).

[Redway]

8.65m (40%), with a peak of 8.85 million at 20.45. Including +1, it averaged 9.06m/42%.

[Jack.]

X factor peaked at over 10 million last night

[Samm]

not bad

[Redway]

Decent enough share and audience for the X Factor. Granted, it's nothing like it was but at least it's somewhat up y-o-y and isn't shredding any viewers. The 2010 highs of 12 million per episode is out of the question for now but the best thing it can do is maintain its audience, which it's doing right now.

[Samm]

I think tonight will get the same as last nights show

[Samm]

9.08m Sundays show Source Digital spy

[Redway]

Yeah, 9.08 million (34.7%), 9.64m (37.1%) inc. +1.

[Redway]

Only 7.6m (34.6%) for last night, 7.85m (35.8%) inc. +1. It had a peak of 8.04m @ 21.15.

Strictly Come Dancing had 9.11m/43.4%, w/ a peak of 9.92m.

[Samm]

peaked with 9.5m, averaging 8.1m, 1 million down on last year's first live show and 700k down on last Saturday's episode.
