Well I suppose in between celebrity life of grime, pump my bride and changing dragons dens they have to be seen to do real programs on BBC1.
Please forgive me if I sound naive but surely 383,000 viewers can't really go that much higher.
1: People who have watched it on BBC4 will continue to watch it here to keep the continuity thus not increasing BBC1’s figures.
2: Anyone who saw the first episode on BBC4 thought it was pretty medioca and probably not tried to see it past episode 3 apart from us lot who enjoy swearing at the telly.
3: It was advertised on BBC1 when it came out anyway so everyone knew where to find it if they really wanted to watch it.
4: Won't all this just happen again on BBC1 but just more people will stumble across it giving the beeb bragging rights about ‘how it's figures have grown from BBC4’ for something that is tired lacking in gags, poor characters and from what's been said nicked its core idea from Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Anyone?
