Re: The X Factor 2007

Eh. I'm not looking clearly enough. Paddy's are on the ball:

* 14-24 female
* 14-24 male
* 25 and over
* Groups

It's only which judge is supposed to mentor which group that's inconclusive.

Let's start with a bit of a bang...X Factor traditionally has good ratings but what will it get for it's first show?



*X Factor 2007 Ratings Thread* - Digital Spy Forums

Paddy's though have a conservative estimate probably based on last week's viewing figures where ITV1 got 3.8 million in a similar timeslot with the final of Baby Ballroom.

I'm convinced there'll be a ratings spike because of the amount of ramping done by ITV and various media outlets (mind you, until I read that bit in Bettingzone any hype of X factor completely passed me by) and that the average TV ratings willl easily go above 5 million between 7:40pm-8:40pm and at 7/1 that's seemingly very generous. Who the hell's gonna be watching Dance X?

Paddy's are allowing me a maximum of £20.24 so it's hardly too much of a gamble if I'm completely wrong.

It'll be interesting to note in what way The X Factor producers will sting Paddy's as to which theme week they'll do first!
