    Does any one know how they work out viewing figures ?

    This has puzzled me too?
    They seem to me to be just ways of promoting what they want us to watch
    I do not watch any of Cowell's crap, he wont make any money from me

    They have a "panel" people with electronic devices on their T.V's See here

    http://www.barb.co.uk/about/tv-measurement

    Viewing estimates are obtained from a panel of television owning private homes representing the viewing behaviour of the 26 million TV households within the UK. The panel is selected to be representative of each ITV and BBC region, with pre-determined sample sizes. Each home represents, on average, about 5,000 of the UK population.

    You wonder how "representative" the panel is or unfortunately it could be that we are a nation of dimwitted proles judging by the inane crap that is shown as the most popular programmes
