Pretty interesting read but not convinced. No source given for the facts and figures plus this time of year is notorious for a drop in viewing figures as the school holidays start and millions of Brits go abroad on holiday. Would be fascinated to know Dave and Gold's viewing figures for the same 2 week period in 2017. That would be the most accurate barometer.
