[QUOTE="Rachel_Sandford, post: 784694, member: 368463"] Monday night's ratings are in, and Channel 4 has a lot of catching up to do! ITV's three-part show, [I]Above Suspicion: Silent Scream[/I], took in the largest audience share with 5.7million viewers, about 21.8% . These numbers rose to 5.9million with the addition of ITV+1. BBC2's [I]Stargazing Live[/I] came back for its second season, and its first episode took in 3.8million viewers, roughly 14.6% of the audience share between 8:30-9:30pm. The one hour slot was followed by an extra half hour of the show called [I]Back to the Observatory[/I]. This took in 2.7million, about 10.3% of the audience share between 9:30-10pm. Hosts Brian Cox and Dara O Briain are undoubtedly happy with their numbers, which are up by 200,000 viewers from the show's launch in January of last year. [I]Stargazing Live[/I] did much better than BBC1 comedy, [I]The Royal Bodyguard[/I], staring Sir David Jason. The show pulled in only 2.6million viewers, down by 300,000 viewers from the week before, and down a staggering 4.2million viewers from its Boxing Day opening when it took in 7.1million. The half-hour show that starts at 9pm only has two more weeks to go, and it seems that some can't wait for it to be over. One critic said: “There will be a sigh of relief across the country when it comes to an end - whereas the BBC comedy department needs taking into a darkened room and shown some of the classic sit-coms of the not too distant past to see how it's done.” Not far behind [I]The Royal Bodyguard[/I] is Channel 5's [I]Celebrity Big Brother[/I], which took 2million viewers or 7.6% of the audience share. This number rises to 2.2million including Channel 5+1. However, the worst ratings of the night go to Channel 4. [I]Coppers[/I], which shows between 9:00-10:00pm had 1.8million, about 6.7% of the share. This number rises to 2.1million with Channel 4+1. The channel's show about automated customer services, [I]On Hold[/I], took in 1.3million viewers, about 4.8% of the audience share between 8:00-9:00pm. This figure rose to 1.4million with the inclusion of Channel 4+1. Channel 4 has a lot to do if it wants to compete with BBC and ITV. Right now, even just overtaking Channel 5, which isn't doing too well itself, may be difficult to achieve for the trailing Channel. [/QUOTE]
