It probably will they are aiming to air it at 5:17pm to coincide with the first broadcast, and the fact it's being simulcast around the world. That will make it finish at half 6!

Looks like at least one other Cable operator is following VM's lead on Netflix-TiVo:

They would need around 300,000 to keep taking it I guess to match the £1 per subscriber.

It may knacker the ratings but they will be showing it exactly to the dot, 50 years after the first one if they show it at 5:17, I dont think they are too bothered about the ratings, they know people will watch it regardless of what time its on.
