Or is that not linear television again?

Just for reference Line of Duty had 10 million on the overnights and it's now pushing past 15 million.

While it's not possible to say all 10 million watched between 9 and 10, it's not credible to pretend they all waited and watched it between 10 and whatever the cut off is for the overnights.
Yes, but streaming services are more flexible. It doesn’t matter what people choose today because people are changing their viewing habits. What they choose to do now and what they will choose to do tomorrow are two different things.

Anyway, we will never agree on that, so no point in pursuing the discussion further.

Ooh, look...

[EXTRACT]

The first quarter of 2021 saw a number of records broken on iPlayer:

As well as being the biggest quarter on record, January is now iPlayer’s most successful month, with 652 million streams.

The first full week of that month (4th – 10th) was the biggest week ever, with 163 million streams.

The 10th of January is iPlayer’s best single day with programmes streamed 26 million times – driven partly by four very popular third round FA Cup matches streaming live on iPlayer, including Marine v Tottenham Hotspur.

The first episode of crime thriller The Serpent is iPlayer’s biggest episode of the year so far, having been streamed 6 million times. The box set of the series was streamed a total of 33 million times between January and March on iPlayer.

The returning series of Line of Duty has also been a hit with viewers, as the first episode of AC-12’s latest case saw over 3.6 million streams in just 11 days up to the end of March. The previous series have also performed strongly on iPlayer, with the Line of Duty box set streamed 35 million times in the first three months of the year.
