LMAO at ITV - they didn't even bother to put up a fight there did they. The only thing they've got is Downton Abbey.

Heee, just saw the news of when it's airing on BBC America. Told my husband we're DVRing it for when I get off work, and he's not to spoil/taunt me over it!

Didn't an episode of All Star Family Fortunes beat an episode of Doctor Who? Although why you would watch that instead of Doctor Who is beyond me.

Yep. I reckon that ITV secretly hopes to be the one pointing and laughing XD

Beat one episode in the overnight figures - which are practically meaningless anyway.

Then it got it's arse well and truly kicked out of the park when the final ratings were released.

Thank god for that. Why anyone would want to watch that twat Vernon Kay over Matt Smith is beyond me.
