Legend of the Sea Devils: Overnight Rating

Legend of the Sea Devils: Overnight Rating

According to the BBC entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimba, last night’s Doctor Who Easter special had an overnight audience of 2.20m (11th most watched programme of day). Was beaten by Antiques Roadshow on BBC Two (2.26m). For younger audiences was tough for Doctor Who going up against Britain’s Got Talent which won the night with 5.20m. This value is likely to rise considerably once the catch up figures are factored into the consolidated ratings in 7 days. (Ed)  https://twitter.com/lizo_mzimba/status/1515974145904893957
