ITV2 newcomers struggle in second week
Published Wednesday, Mar 19 2008, 19:03 GMT | By Dave West

The US drama earned a strong 7.2% share in multichannel homes at 9pm, though it was significantly down on 2.2m (10.5%) for last week's record-setting opening episode.
However, a line-up of other newcomers, which also debuted last week, put in less respectable performances.
At 10pm Keith Lemon's Very Brilliant World Tour, which gained 365,000 (2.2%) last week, was down to 196,000 (1.15%), well below the channel's 398,000 (2.41%) slot average.
New sitcom Laura, Ben and Him was watched by 93,000 (0.7%) at 10.35pm, down from 150,000 (1.15%) last week, and failing to meet the 412,000 (3.28%) average performance for the timeslot.
Following at 11.05pm was Comedy Cuts, with 77,000 (0.9%) viewers. The audience was 31,000 lower than last week's and far from the 301,000 (3.48%) slot average.
