Nick Griffin's appearance on Question Time boosted its audience last night, according to the latest figures.

The controversial show, which caused outrage after the BBC Trust upheld an earlier appeal against the British National Party's scheduled appearance, was seen by 7.82m (50.2%) during the hour from 10.35pm.

The programme easily won its timeslot and was up on last week's performance by over 5m viewers.
