Overnight figures, released by BARB and made public by BBC News correspondent Lizo Mzimba, show that The Giggle had an average audience of 4.62m from 6:30pm on BBC One.

This figure made Doctor Who the 3rd most-watched programme of the day across all channels, behind Strictly Come Dancing and I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. This figure is UK only and does not include iPlayer viewers.

 

Consolidated figures, which include those who watched on iPlayer and on devices, showed that The Giggle has consolidated to 6,848,000m on BBC One. Despite a drop from previous episodes, Doctor Who remains the most watched drama of the week across all channels and streaming services, and also the third most watched title of the week.
