    I still believe it will still rate over 1.5m. Only the minority of people would have gone out and bought the DVD/BluRay. Sure its been a while but this was always Seven’s plan and besides its the same situation as last year already ending way before it came here.

  2. tens digital channels have really been letting them down lately. They are the only network that does not cross promote their channels. 7 and 9 air their digital channels signposts on the main channel at around 6:30 every night. I think it is really effective and looking at those ratings, it delivers results. Ten need to get over whatever silly reason it is that they don’t.

  3. @Guy It would be interesting to see how Downton rates, Seven has said it would be aired later in the year, they’re just pushing it all back so we’ll behind even more. Series 3 is filming now. I reckon a great deal of it’s audience would have seen it by now, I didn’t bother waiting for Seven, bought Series 2 and the Christmas Special off ebay.

  4. Seven are just commanding at the top and the scary thing is they haven’t released the big big guns yet in Downton, Dancing, Once, Criminal Minds and Talent. I just can’t see Nine coming back. It’s going to be same old same old.

  5. Seven is going up and Nine is going down. The network share gap has widened from 6.5% to 7%. I imagine that it could possibly grow bigger this week with no cricket on Nine.
