Saturday aft: Less than 155,700 on Quest, 67,500 on Eurosport

Sunday aft: 205,000 on Quest, 100,600 on Eurosport
Sunday eve: Less than 155,700 on Quest, 91,700 on Eurosport

The darts only appears once in the top 15 programmes on Quest (the Sunday afternoon), so the other two sessions will be less than 155,700 as that is what the 15th ranked programme got. No way of knowing the figure
Now have the rest of the event to add in:

Mon aft: 41,900 on Eurosport
Mon eve: 67,500 on Eurosport
Tue aft: Less than 41,900 on Eurosport
Tue eve: 97,500 on Eurosport
Wed aft: 69,700 on Eurosport
Wed eve: 86,400 on Eurosport
Thu aft: 51,200 on Eurosport, 174,800 on Quest = 226,000 TOTAL
Thu eve: 95,800 on Eurosport
Fri aft (QF): 65,400 on Eurosport
Fri eve (QF): 98,800 on Eurosport
Sat part 1 (ladies final and SF1): 115,500 on Eurosport, 190,100 on Quest = 305,600 TOTAL
Sat part 2 (SF2): 142,600 on Eurosport
Sun (final): 110,200 on Eurosport, 262,000 on Quest = 372,200 TOTAL

All the other afternoon sessions on Quest (Mon/Tue/Wed and Fri) were UNCHARTED, so ranked less than 173,900 which was the 15th highest rated programme.

8 of the top 15 rated programmes were Salvage Hunters :roll:

Just to put it into some sort of perspective, the Channel 4/BT Sport era where the final was getting just over a million was already a sharp drop from the BBC days....

What sort of numbers so other events in those slots pull for eurosport
Numbers look pretty desperate.
Good job viewing figures stopped mattering around the rime the BBC deal was lost.

The positive way to spin it is that Quest's overall audience share is about 80-85% lower than that of C4, and the Lakeside ratings have dropped off less than that, so arguably a (slightly) greater success relative to the channel's general reach. That being said, it's of course the same issue they had on Dave - expensive live programming doing no better than some of the cheap licensed programming the broadcaster has available. As already said, I think it'll be commercial suicide to put the other two, barely known, events on Quest rather than only on Eurosport.

Sunday evening snooker final sessions have been getting roughly the same as the Lakeside final.

Eurosport isn't in the sky sports package that I originally had so a lot won't even have it.
Hot on the heels of Glenn's betrayal more woeful news for the gimps.

Hell of a lot more people will have Eurosport compared to BT, though.

Usually bundled into a mid range package on Sky and Virgin
