Launching on a Bank Holiday weekend was quite clever really, got the viewers talking over a fallow weekend, provided a perfect excuse for low ratings. Also provided a sounding board for the antis which thankfully seem to be being fairly treated, but their arguments really are being reduced to sour grapes again. I've not read any outright criticism from 'professional' sources either. I can see it growing in the coming weeks, we'll see.
Wow, that is terrible for the debut of a new era of a TV show, especially when most people were watching to point and laugh at how much of a car crash (pun intended) the show was. If the first episode only got 4.3 million, it'll be fun to see what the next episodes get.
I didn't think it was too bad, definitely has the Evans/Baker stamp on it (the staff from Evans' local Indian takeaway being on for no real reason could have been straight from TFI Friday)
Was Danny Baker involved? He was missing from the recent TFI Friday revival and it showed

It being a bank holiday is not an excuse for low ratings. This was the first episode of a revival of a popular show and they are generally expected to do better than other episodes of said TV show. If the show can't even get five million during an event episode then what chance does it have for the remaining ones?

The 2014 episode wasn't an 'event' episode though. It was a standard episode of the show.
With respect you are talking garbage. Overnight TV audiences are generally shrinking year on year (look at BGT final). Nobody should be writing this show off until the consolidated ratings are in. It will timeshift well and is doing very well on iPlayer.
You should take this over the top, reactionary argument to Digital Spy. Over here things are talked about a little more considered & rationally.
