That's fine but even more people would watch TV3 News.

News Special on TV3 was on at 8pm on Monday night, to me I think TV3 should at least move the news to 8pm from either 5:30 or 7pm instead of Xpose. Though the storm also helped this figure, but it was sandwiched between Coro St. Xpose could move to 7PM on be3.

GBBO had 36,000 viewers on C4.

TV3 News at 5:30 had 203,000 viewers for the storm while it averaged 117,000 for other episodes.

3e Cele Tipping point topped the chart with 50,000 or so viewers while Comedy Roast Donald Trump had the biggest auidence ever with 29,000 viewers.

be3's the chase had 46,000 viewers while Dickenson's Real Deal had 23,000 viewers.

Is no-one in RTE even embarrassed, or asked questions of, on the amount of dross it produces.

I don't know, but is TV viewing like radio listening ? Passively watching Ray Darcy et al, desperately trying to entertain the nation on Saturday nights.

Elmo

RTÉ One is very lucky to have seen an increase in October both yearly and monthly.
RTÉ2 just how low it can go without sport, though it was up on a yearly basis.
RTÉjr and RTÉ1+1 see no signs of change
TV3's increase is interesting, nearly reaching its RWC figure in October 2015.
3e's increase is also surprising nearly getting 3% with nothing major on the channel
be3 and +1 standing steady.
Can only mean good things for TV3 with I'm a Celeb.
Meanwhile TG4 is up from last your but as expected down from last month, and eirSport remains low, they really need to return to Virgin.

It will be interesting to see how Super Saturday helps RTÉ2 for Nov.

Surprising that the RTE Press Office has yet to tweet any ratings for "Super Saturday". Edit - Medialive figures out, with Ireland v Denmark getting 731,000 and 580,000 for the rugby. Unsurprisingly, the Saturday X Factor fails to chart for TV3 as a result, and the Sunday edition only registers 139k (affected by Blue Planet II?). Late Late reverts to 444k, and Ireland's Greatest Sporting Moment records a respectable 142k. No Tonight Show or PK on TV3, but David McWilliams scrapes into 20th place, on 102k.

So tried to get figures for TV3's Daytime programming, but so secretive when shows aren't doing well. Basic response was TV3 between 7am and 5:59 has 17% share of the audience V RTÉ One's 13% (between Jan and Sept). RTÉ One's Today programme had a 15% share. I assume that Ireland AM still has a 25%, with no increase for Elaine since her move from Midday. Took them 3 months to respond to the email, and they didn't even give the info I wanted.

On RTE1, outside of the Today Show, there is very little there. 2 hours of soaps is way too much. Very little variety, when considering the range of different types of programming on BBC1.

The widely-flagged appearances of Ibrahim Halawa and Conor McGregor boosted the Late Late, so will be hard to repeat that next week.

That is one huge rating for The Today Show. The storm definitely had people in watching telly. Although, it may have been nice if some of the channels like 3e went off-kilter and showed something different considering most of the irish people were stuck inside.

Blind Date doing well if you add up the repeat with the first showing.

Ray D'Arcy's rating is getting close to the Late Late Show. unsure whether TLLS is just getting bad, or RDS is getting better. Surely it can't be the latter.

Last sentence of first paragraph: they should make a new late night alternative music show. I'd definitely tune in for that!

To me it doesn't seem that Coronation Street or Emmerdale are growing all that much, but rather RTÉ ONE is having a dismal new season. Ranging from 222,000 for Nationwide at 20 to 436,000 viewers for The Late Late Show at number 1. TLLS is up from previous weeks with this years run down significantly, I think this might be the first time its breached 400,000 viewers since it return in Sept. Fair City is in at Number 2 with 343,000 a massive 100,000 difference between 1 and 2 slots.

First week for RTÉ2 without sport and their Quasi-Factual Docs (or Constructed Reality) programmes are significantly down from last year. Living with an Addict tops the chart with just 110,000 viewers, while Say Yes To The Dress Ireland gets just 96,000 viewers, Salon Confidental getting just 68,000 viewers while a repeat of First Dates had 62,000 viewers.

Home and Away ranged from 62,000 to 68,000 viewers, with no show for Tuesday or Wednesday night.

Repeats of Constructed Factual saw John Connor's America with 56,000 viewers at number 20 and Lords and Lades (which has to be on its Nth repeat) had 69,000 viewers.

For TV3 X-Factor remains at just 155,000 and 147,000 viewers.

Irish entertainment shows on the channel, Googlebox (147,00), Blind Date (141,000), Living with Lucy(109,000) and Xpose Wednesday with 100,000 viewers. The Rehab had 113,000 viewers, meaning PK Tonight and The Tonight Show are under 100,000 viewers.

Notice JNRL announced today, never anything in the news about TV audiences, unless RTÉ and TV3 are announcing their top shows.

Any storm ratings for the news that day and the night before?

RTE been getting away with the LLS for years and years. They treat their audience like idiots. Same guests, same format, same rubbish week in week out. I'm not surprised the ratings are finally starting to drop.

Ray D'Arcy's rating is getting close to the Late Late Show. unsure whether TLLS is just getting bad, or RDS is getting better. Surely it can't be the latter.

Hard to know, really both should expect to see increases as we move into the winter, but TLLS is suffering this year.

That is one huge rating for The Today Show. The storm definitely had people in watching telly. Although, it may have been nice if some of the channels like 3e went off-kilter and showed something different considering most of the irish people were stuck inside.

Blind Date doing well if you add up the repeat with the first showing.

Not sure how the power outages were considered in these figures. First time entry for Today/a daytime show in the top twenty for RTÉ with 261,000 viewers.

RTÉ2's Vogue, Say Yes To The Dress, Salon Confidential and Trauma ranged from 85,000 viewers to 112,000 viewers. Sport continued to be the main attraction with BEN V MU getting from 97,000 to 243,000, GAA Draw had 122,000 viewers, Cork City V Derry City getting 79,000 viewers. Home and Away had from 64,000 to 106,000 viewers, with Eamon and Bridget getting just 62,000 viewers.

9 of TV3's top 20 got into the top 30 show, Coro St and Emmerdale. X Factor had 172,000 and 169,000 viewers.

Irish shows Blind Date (152,000), Gogglebox (120,000), Blind Date Repeat (113,000) and The Rehab (112,000).

To be honest TV3 haven't really. I agree TV3 have improved vastly and I think largely because of this they have retained audiences from 2015 and 2016 but this is all they have done, retained an audience. TV3 will really be looking to IGT and 6 Nations to see them jump to 20% overall. Certainly both RTÉ and TV3 seem to be looking more at January than Sept to Dec in terms of audience, which is odd considering that advertisers want audiences before Christmas.

My guess is RTÉ will have 25% over Christmas with TV3 having around 16%, I suspect that RTÉ will drop in Oct and Nov, with TV3 increasing in Nov with the return of I'm A Celeb.

When I look at the programmes RTE have shown over the last couple of weeks I must say apart from the excellent dramas like Broken with Sean Bean An Acceptable Risk and Mr. Mercedes with Brendan Gleeson and of course their news coverage leading up to and including the aftermath of Storm Ophelia there hasn't been anything on RTE to show a possible increase in audience figures. I wonder how did they above dramas mentioned fair in the ratings so far?

My guess is RTE will mostly likely gain viewers over the Christmas period especially with the influx of good movies they show over that period. How much of a gain they will make on TV3 and all the other channels I mentioned in my previous post remains to be seen. Since Virgin Media took over the TV3 bouquet of channels I think they have really upped their game regarding news,home produced and bought in content. So it will be interesting to see who gains the most viewership over the Christmas period.
