Opera gives 4 lowest primetime audience in years
Published Friday, Dec 8 2000, 12:22 GMT | By Neil Wilkes
Channel 4's screening of youth opera Zoe scored it one of its lowest ever prime-time ratings on Saturday evening.
Just 0.3 million viewers - less than a 1% share - tuned in; just under a tenth of its regular Saturday audience. Tough competition can be partly responsible, however, with the Stars in their Eyes live final on ITV. 10 million (43%) watched the finalists perform at 19.45, with 11.3 million staying put at 22.15 to find out the winner.
A Saturday night Coronation Street averaged 11.8 million (50%), and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? drew 11.9 million (53%).
On Sunday evening, Cold Feet was seen by 8.8 million (up 0.6 million) whilst BBC1's Take A Girl Like You averaged 4.3 million (down 1.3 million).
