Why are they calling him salad man when clearly he was eating a donner kebab? It's this lack of attention to detail that makes social media so dangerous! The poor man was only trying to get rid of the awful salad you get in kebab shops. He's kebab man. That 'awful salad' is actually quite nice with a Donner. And for many late Pub Goers, is the nearest to a Five-A-Day healthy diet that they get. Because the Chip shops close earlier, that's why, otherwise it would be a spam fritter for their supper. On a divergent note, did anyone get vibes of this guy watching the Tooth Fairy? ![]() ![]()  |

10.535m consoidated figure. (And will get even a bit higher in the 28 days figure.)
That's within spitting distance of "Journey's End" which which was the 'Infinity War' of Doctor Who, building on four years and three seperate series to get it's audience.
But hey, this female Doctor thing will never work. People are sick of having PC garbage rammed down their throats.

Like most people I always thought the first few episodes of S11 would get good viewing figures, novelty value and all that. (My three children were all interested in watching Doctor Who last night after the first episode; whereas none of them actually liked Peter Capaldi.) It will be the viewing figures for episodes 7, 8 and 9 that will tell a lot. Has Doctor Who been able to keep it's viewers throughout S11 is more telling than just the viewing figures for the first episodes. In my house everyone is happy so far though, so based on my highly scientific sitting room indicators, it's looking good! |

Didn't realise BARB included the non-TV viewers as well. So the real figure is 10.9 million!
TV: 10,535,000
PC: 234,364
Tablet: 110,450
Phone: 22,251
Which makes it *blows trumpet* the No. 1 Programme for the week for only the second time ever!

In addition to such a terrific rating, the episode scored an AI of 83. Great in general, more so when you consider it’s one of those episodes - like Christmas specials - where people who wouldn’t normally watch do tune in.
Amazingly it has scored better ratings and AI than Rose back in 2005!

Doesn’t this make it the fifth time? Journeys End, The End of Time Part 1, The End of Time Part 2, The Day of the Doctor and how The Woman Who Fell to Earth. |

Fair enough, though that wasn’t specified. If you want to be pedantic, all five of them could be considered “specials”, I’d say, none of them are properly “regular”. Remarkable achievements for our beloved show regardless!

AIs are such a funny metric. This 83 score is the same as much-criticised "In the Forest of the Night" while "Heaven Sent" - fan fave - scored 80. I gave up trying to predict the AIs a long time ago. "Blink" got the same as "The Sontaran Strategem" to quote another example that fans and the public asked are quite out of sync.

They recently changed the way ratings are calculated. |

There is also the impact of the move to Sunday’s, which will be hard to quantify really unless they move back to Saturdays again. If we continue to keep a regularish time slot as we have so far that will help too. |

TWWFTE was excellent but AI figures often don't bear much resemblance to actual story quality (as we fans wouild judge it.) The measurements would have been different back then but when 'The Power of the Daleks' was broadcast the audience response was that it was just about OK and they didn't like Patrick Troughton's new Doctor much either... Vox Populi?! To choose between 'OK' and 'Outstanding' DW you might as well ask the Vocs robots!  
Only on/off switch figures really matter and TWWFTE was a far better story than 'Rose' imo (no comedy belching wheelie bins for starters) so I'm very pleased it topped it..
(Though to be a bit fair to 'Rose', TWWFTE has 13 years of the new series to build from; 'Rose' came from a standing start for new viewers after a long gap where the 'received wisdom' was that DW had been a wobbly-walled joke full of bad acting and rubber monsters.)

The number which counts is viewing figures. TWWFTE was about 10 times better than 'Rose' imo (not just technologically, as a story. No belching wheelie bins for starters) so I'm very pleased it topped it in the ratings. And to do so in multi-platform mutli-multi-channel 2018 is very impressive.
But, you want to have your cake and eat it. The whole point of AI is the audiences view on the quality of the story. I have no evidence, but I suspect some of those 10 million viewers were either first time viewers, or returning viewers. All with an opinion on what they were watching. If the ratings dropped to 6 - 7 million, the AI will go up because those viewers will stick with it. Less disgruntled viewers to give a low score. |

AI is a useless indicator, its supposed a random group of the Audience that watched the show they Score, turns out its not, a good portion of the groups scoring the Smith and Capaldi EPs hadn't seen them.

Ratings are a useless indicator, too. Its a small group of people with a box. I suspect that not everyone in the random group saw Whittaker. |
