Ratings
All ratings are taken from BARB, a consortium that announces viewing figures that are considered "official," that is, take into account not only overnight figures but also recordings. BARB figures are usually released about a week after each episode; however, percentages in parentheses are from overnight sources. Week 1 includes the launch week, which consists only of a Friday show.| Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | ||
