Ooh. Fifth most watched? I’m going to hope that’s changed when we get the iPlayer figures. Bearing in mind the bottom two are the first two, I would have hoped that TDTWATW had done better.
Very good figures.
these are very good figures i hope they keep up :)
That’s not including people in the states that don’t have BBC America and watch it threw websites (which I did)!
Though personally I liked last years special better. It made me cry so hard!
the doctor, the widow and the wardrobe should be at the bottom to be fair because it was really rubbish. worst xmas special ever. voyage of the voyage of the damned
