Yep. Doctor Who 7.27 million 36.05% share And and Dec 6.024 million 30.86% share
Casualty 7.5 million 34.3% share
Given the change in clocks, better weather, and Ant and Dec having Tony Bliar on and starting 15 minutes early, DW still comfortably beats them.
They finish in four weeks as well, so that should lead to a nice rise in audience for the Dalek episode as well, and possibly even settle around the 8 million mark for the second half of the season.

Isn't it still a little early for the figures to come out?
I mean, it was mid-afternoon last week before ANYTHING came out but so far there have been two sources for EOTW before mid-day, both quoting different numbers.

Plus it's possible a lot of people who *may* have watched last week could have been watching the news for developments on the Pope's condition.
I'm not suggesting that it makes the 3million difference between last week and this but it could account for a few hundred thousand.

Viewingfigures.com is BARB's official site- I know which source I'd believe!

Reports still saying that the ITV strike may take them off air sooner than that!

It was Easter Sunday last week - the ratings usually come out just before midday on a normal weekday.

Excellent news. And the way Ant n' Dec got increased ratings once DW finished seems to show viewers are choosing Dr Who as first choice (hopefully not taping Ant and Dec either). -- Frankymole "Sir, I have given you an argument. I am not also obliged to provide you with an understanding."

Looks as if A & D and on their way out. Maybe they need to reschedule. -- Member - Liberal International This is doc...@nl2k.ab.ca Ici doc...@nl2k.ab.ca God Queen and country! Beware Anti-Christ rising! UK as 5 May 2005 approaches, vote LDem!!
