Aren't more viewing figures out tomorrow? I hope that they look more promising! :( (And yes I do know that there's no plans for further series' yet, so what after series 4? series 3 again)
They're usually out on Tuesdays, I think. I looked. They're not up- at least not yet. I'll check again later.

No idea on Challenge's plans. 24 hour Takeshi marathons every day? Oh, bad Grimwold, don't be so catty! *slaps wrists*

I think the one I saw was from a different site though but can't remember which though. It is listed way back somewhere on this forum I am quite sure

This may come as a shock to you but Fort Boyard has constently been a ratings winner for Challenge, so much so they are making a whole new series.

Also its NOTHING to do with the Knightmare timeslot as when Takeshis Castle was in that slot it was getting 200,000+ viewers some weeks.

I hope Challenge buy the rights to series 7 or 8 but to be honist i cant see that happening.

:o What no knightmare, I don't understand the ratings, and the GJ reconed tonight that Knightmare is the second most popular show. But then again I don't surpose it stands a chance against Takeshis ratings 8 out of 10, but family fortunes on Friday? I am slightly more confused. I definately thought KM would have been higher, but there you go. (I'll stop waffling now!)

I would like to point out that the GJ who said this, is the one who always harps on bout Takeshi's anyways! He aint the GJ who sighned the guestbook btw!

If the GJ who did sign the guestbook say something about popular shows, it would hopefully be very different indeed!

But if you look at the actual numbers of viewers when Knightmare reached the top ten, it got 80 000 viewers (0.08 million) Knightmare could still be getting 80 000 veiwers regularly but this weeks ratings ended at 90 000 (0.09 million) viewers so Knightmare could have just missed out...


Ever the optomist  ;D

If you look at the challenge ratings thread page 1 at the ratings for takeshi's for the week ending 08/06 then Takeshi's peaks at 200 000 viewers (0.2 milion) so, with a the highest numbers of viewers being 150 000 (0.15 million) the popularity of the show is decreasing massively.....

*Rubs hands together with glee*

;D

I think the opposition will be shown again soon, Series 5 is at the door...

Enter Stranger....

*Exits wierd physco mode*

This really does sound like good news, with less people interested in that sham Takeshi's Castle Challenge can focus their budget on something to really entertain the masses...

well its not like Knightmare isnt doing good, its just not doing as good.

But Look how many times TC is on.. its bound to fill up the listings.. after all its just pointless crap that no one really payes much attention to.. The faster they take off that sunday TC bill the better!

WOOHOO, Great to see Knightmare yet again in the Top 10 Ratings for another week, Hopefully this is a good thing for the future of the show on Challenge ;)

Also am I right in thinking this was an Series 4 Episode. I know they have just recently started showing Series 3 again so it sounds like it is although I'm not too sure.

Lets Hope it happens next week as well :)

Applying a bit of statistical sneakiness, we can make a new table from that where a programme is only allowed to make one entry, its rating calculated as an average of its top ten ratings:

1. Takeshi's Castle     average of 0.09625
2. Fort Boyard                              0.09000
3. Knightmare                              0.08

With all other programmes drawing less than 0.07.

So, Km is their third biggest draw. That surely must be very good indeed. :)
