Yet ratings usually aren't as high as the rest of the year, thus not allowing EastEnders to have the most watched episode last year. Is that because families watch TV together at Christmas, and BARB only counts the set, rather than the individual person? Anyway...
But not everybody will vote though. Like I said, EastEnders viewers are more likely to vote, therefore EastEnders usually always wins these kind of awards - so no, I don't agree it's a fair representation of a soaps popularity, ratings have been, and always will be the only way to truly determine a soaps popularity.

The point i'm trying to make is,I think people have more chance of showing what shows they like with voting shows like Nta and soap magazines as everyone has a chance to vote.Unlike with the ratings.
