1.3m see last 'Boys and Girls Alone'

Controversial documentary series Boys And Girls Alone ended its run last night with a disappointing 1.29m (5.3%) in the 9pm hour for Channel 4.

The social experiment, which followed a group of ten young girls and ten young boys living alone, drew a respectable 2.37m for the opening episode, but lost over a million viewers by the time the series reached its end.

It was beaten by Five's screening of CSI, which was seen by 2.73m (11%) and BBC Two's Horizon. This week's episode, which explored how we are governed by our body clocks, drew 2.4m (9.6%).

The second episode of BBC One's Mistresses held a reasonable 4.16m (17%) for the 9pm hour but lost 650k viewers from last week's opener.

ITV1 dominated the slot with coverage of Inter Milan's game against Manchester United, which averaged 6.56m (26.8%) between 7.30pm and 10pm.

Holby City was seen by 5.44m (21.8%) on BBC One in the 8pm hour, while BBC Two's Oz and James Drink To Britain picked up 2.24m (9.1%). MasterChef followed with 3.62m (14.2%).

Channel 4's Supersize vs Superskinny grabbed 1.94m (7.7%), beating the second part of Five's documentary Mr And Mrs Wolf, which managed just 939k (3.8%).

ITV1 dominated primetime with an average share of 24.2% to BBC One's 22.6%. BBC Two was third with 8.8%, followed by Channel 4 on 7.2% (+1: 0.7%) and Five on 6.3%.

Elsewhere, the new Shameless pulled in 764k (10.2%) for E4 at 11pm. Agatha Christie's Marple also did well, attracting 689k (3.1%) for ITV3 at 7.55pm, while Live UEFA Champions League coverage at 7.30pm delivered 607k (2.7%) for ITV4.
