[Pete Part Three]

A huge hit for Dave.

Will be interesting to see what the ratings are like for Part Three.

That’s massive, I was expecting something much worse

[hummingbird]

I’m …. speechless. Almost.
This is huge for a channel like Dave, isn’t it? Does anything else compare?

Let’s hope the ratings stay high for 2 & 3.

absolutely fantastic. i was thinking if it got 1.5 then fantastic. but 2 million thats brilliant more or less on a par with all the shows on the main 5 channels and HIGHER than the golf on BBC 2. great job

I wonder if the BBC are now a little more interested in the audience that RD attracts?

*writes* Dear BBC, prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark egg on your face.

Well, hopefully those ratings will have been noted around the world and soon somebody will be buying the rights to show them in Australia.

The fact that a 15 year old episode of Red Dwarf gets over 1 million viewers speaks for itself.

2,060,000 people watched new Red Dwarf on a digital TV Channel.

That is fucking amazing.

[SkyAndSun]

It’s fantastic. I hope it stays high for tonight and tomorrow’s episode.

Will the BBC notice, though? For them 2 million isn’t that big, even though I’m sure you could times it by 4 if the shows were on the BBC.
And do we want the BBC to notice, given their shunning of the RD?

(I think yes – their money would make a difference and their audience would ensure the show’s future)

[Michael Warren]

Crikey. That’s huge – especially when you look at what Dave’s usual top rated programme gets, which over the last five weeks only once has a rating of more than 500,000…
