Doctor Who got an amazing 10.5 million viewers on its brand new opening episode last Saturday, beating Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway to a poll. Graham Norton's new dance show, Strictly Dance Fever went up to 7 million, beating off competition from the ever tiring and boring Stars in their Eyes.
However, do you think that ITV might beat Doctor Who & Strictly Dance Fever this Saturday? Perhaps the only reason the two BBC shows did so well was because that they were new, opening episodes. Or do any of you think the BBC will be able to keep up these impressive ratings? I think Doctor Who should still manage to get between 8 - 10 million this Saturday as the episode last Saturday was fantastic & give Saturday night a whole new fresh appeal.
