I blame the early timeslot, lower total TV audience, crap weather, lack of Who coverage on GMTV/This Morning/Loose Women this series, alien planets and that Planet Skaro meet thingy for the sub-7m overnight figure and lower audience share.Quote:

All figures from Marcus and Andy Parish on the Doctor Who Forum.
Put it on at 7pm for Christ's sake, BBC!
Oh dear, we only just beat "All Star Celebrity Mr and Mrs"!
Si.
bugger Doctor Who, only getting 6.9m viewers for me the sad and depressing thing is nearly 11m people watched Britains got Talent..:eek
"X-Factor" isn't exactly bullying. There's a difference between criticism and bullying!
Si.
Criticism can be construed as a form of bullying Si.
Ooops! Well, we had a great time down the pub anyway. Sorry everybody!
6.9m is still good, it will probably go over 7m after overnights. Might finally be the affect of the earlier slot though, maybe even the difference between 6:20 and 6:45 has a large affect :eek:
Every season opener so far has had a certain novelty factor- I'm just wondering whether the novelty of watching just to see how Catherine Tate works in Who hasn't worn off after a couple of episodes, and everybody who expected to see Lauren and Gran has been disappointed that she's actually acting and after a fairly light starter, it's back to normal Who.
Maybe if they actually showed it at the same time for two weeks running people would remember when to watch.
Si.
Check out the final figure for 'The Fires of Pompeii':
Another timeshift round about 1 million! That's two 9m+ episodes in a row! :flashQuote:

Ratings for The Sontaran Stratagem are in:
6.4 million viewers (35.2% share)
Bit disappointing on the face of it (though the overnights will probably push it past 7 million), but it was the most watched show on BBC1 all day, and only 2nd to Britain's Got Talent across the channels. Good weather and that stupid 6.20pm start are to blame... it really is the wrong timeslot.

The good weather kills Doctor Who viewing figures AGAIN!
When will the BBC realise that Doctor Who is an Autumn show!?
We're all DOOOOOMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Poison Sky is falling! :flash
I've not seen any of it, so don't even really know what it is, but that Britain's Got Talent is amazingly popular isn't it!! Not sure how you can say it's the wrong timeslot though, Pip, as with that one exception nothing's beating it. It couldn't do much better, surely?
From the trailers I've seen, the word that comes to mind is "freakshow", although the drop from Who into I'd Do Anything suggests that people only have a certain amount of patience with shows about amateur performers trying to make the big time. You can only win your slot (and win it fairly convincingly), although part of the idea is to get people watching television who would otherwise be doing other things. But again, it was a surprisingly fine day, at least around here where the forecast had been for rain all day.Quote:

My point is that Doctor Who is outperforming everything else on BBC1, but it's being used as the main attraction to keep people watching afterwards, and they're not. There's always a massive rise and fall in viewing figures before and after each episode, proof that people are tuning in especially to see Dr Who. It should be the centerpiece of the evening for that reason, not the lead in.
Ah right, I see what you're saying. Good point in that case (although did it have that effect when it was in the 7 o'clock slot?)
Well last night for instance, according to early figures, nearly 3 million more people were watching television at 7pm compared to 6.15pm. And a million of those would probably have been watching Who if it had started at 7pm...
