Top of the Christmas Ratings?

Posted: 08 Jan 2010 02:40 AM PST

End of Time 1Final figures released by BARB make Doctor Who the most watched programme of Christmas week.

The End of Time, Part One had a final rating of 11.57 million on BBC One, much higher than the initial overnight figure reported. This alone makes the programme the 3rd highest rated on  British Television for the week.

However if figures for those watching on BBC HD are included, as they arguably should be given the programme was simulcast on both channels, then the The End of Time, Part One had a final audience figure for its first showing of 12.04 million viewers pushing the programme into the lead as the most watched programme of Christmas week.

This makes The End of Time, Part One one of only two episodes in Doctor Who's long history to have been the most watched programme of the week. It is the 3rd highest rating since the series returned in 2005, only beaten by two previous Christmas specials, Voyage of the Damned and The Next Doctor. It has the 28th highest rating in the series history.

An additional 1.18 million watched the repeat of the programme on BBC Three on Sunday and an additional 770,000 watching on the iPlayer during the week.
