Thought it would be good to start up a thread to post viewing figures from various sources for selected programmes. Even though many of you guys know where to find the figures, some don't. Basically, post info for ratings if you've got it - doesn't matter what show(s).
Weds Jan 11
Lost 10pm - 4.6 million
Lost 11pm - 4.1 million
Big Brother - 4.3 million
Soapstar Superstar - 5.4 million
Coronation St. - 10.4 million
Emmerdale - 8.6 million
I gave up on Lost about half way through as I got fed up of watching one brilliant episode followed by a couple which were dull and very average.
I'd also read the producer intended the series to last 8 years!
Lost, well lost, alot of it's ratings in it's Wednesday night airing on C4 during the series, going from an opening of around 6m to an average of 3m. However, it did perform really well in it's various slots on E4, with 1m watching the "First Look" episode and half that number again watching the second chance edition on the Sunday. Over 1m also watched the Sunday night C4 repeats.
Therefore, when you add all the figures together the audience did hold up quite well - it's just people chose to watch it at different times.
I read on MediaGuardian it's coming back in the Spring - so it's likely to lose the Wednesday slot to Desperate Housewives, and Big Brother generally takes the 10pm slot from May, so god knows where it'll be scheduled.

Yeah it's back in the Spring. Channel 4 announced at the end of the last episode with a big trailer for it, and some bloke shouting 'We can't wait either!' I was quite excited when I saw it, I didn't like the prospect of waiting until August. But I also agree that I just don't have a clue where they would put it. As you said, Desperate Housewives and Big Brother get in the way, so where would that put poor Lost?

According to Heat, Lost is back in June, which is technically Spring until the 21st even though most people think of it as Summer, so perhaps there will be time to accommodate the whole DH series before Lost returns.
