The BBC have released publicity photographs for the finale of Torchwood: Miracle Day, The Blood Line; the episode is due to broadcast on Starz in the United States on 9th September (10:00ET), on UKTV in Australia (9:30pm) and on Space in Canada (9:00ET) on Saturday 10th September, and on BBC1/BBC1HD in the United Kingdom on 15th September (9:00pm).

Figures released by BARB show Doctor Who: Let's Kill Hitler, just missed out on a top ten place becoming the 11th most watched programme of the week.

The episode was the 6th most watched programme of the week on BBC Television. It was beaten in the charts by the two major soaps, EastEnders and Coronation Street, New Tricks and The X Factor, but out rated all editions of Emmerdale.

The figures do not include those watching on iPlayer, where over 1.2 million people accessed the episode within 7 days of the broadcast.

Meanwhile Torchwood: Immortal Sins had a final UK rating of 4.48 million viewers. It was the 32nd most watched programme of the week.

The AI score for Episode Eight of Torchwood, End of the World, was 84.

Doctor Who: Night Terrors had an Appreciation Index, or AI score of 86.

The AI is a measure of how much the audience enjoyed the episode. The score puts the programme in the excellent category. It was the joint highest, with Casualty, for Saturday on BBC One.

Doctor Who finished 24th for the week in the overnight charts. It should finish well within the top twenty when official ratings are issued next week.

0.32 million watched the Sunday night repeat on BBC Three.

Let's Kill Hitler had a final consolidated rating of 8.1 million viewers.

The programme had a share of 33.3% of the total TV audience and was the most watched programme of the day on BBC One. The nearest programme on the channel was Casualty which had a final rating of 5.19 million.

Consolidated figures include those who record and watch the programme within seven days. The final rating is much more accurate than the initial overnight figure and is based on the actual broadcast time of the programme rather than its scheduled time.

The figues do not include those watching on iPlayer, where Let's Kill Hitler has already been accessed over 1 million times.

The final figure for Let's Hill Hitler is the second highest of the series so far, The Impossible Astronaut had 8.86 million watching. It is the highest ever rating for the eighth episode in a series since the show returned in 2005.

A chart position will be released later this week when final figures from the whole week are available.

5.5 million viewers tuned in to watch Night Terrors, according to unofficial overnight figures.

The eighth in the current series has a share of 25.9% of the total TV audience as it faced its toughest opposition for some time. On ITV1, Red and Black, the new game show with Ant and Dec had an average of 6.6 million watching.

Doctor Who was the most watched programme of the day on BBC One and fourth overall for the day. ITV1 took the first three places with The X Factor on top with 11.1 million, followed by the two editions of Red and Black.

Doctor Who's audience was steady throughout the episode, with a peak of 5.6 million viewers and nearly 2.7 million leaving BBC One as the show finished, boosting Red and Black in its final half hour.

Doctor Who currently stands at 21st for the week.

Final figures, which will be released in 8 days time, should see the final total rise considerably, when those who record the episode and watch it later are factored in. Doctor Who is likely to have a much higher percentage of people watching on a delay and could overtake Red and Black on the final ratings.

On BBC Three Doctor Who Confidential had an overnight rating of 0.44 million.

2|Entertain have released cover art and content details for the forthcoming Series Six Part Two, due out on 10th October, and also details for The Sarah Jane Adventures Series Four (31st October).

Torchwood:End of the Road achieved an average audience of 3.5 million viewers on BBC One and BBC One HD, according to unofficial overnight figures.

The figure was slightly up on last week. The main opposition came not from ITV1, which was showing the documentary, 9/11: Day that Changed the World which achieved an average of 5.5 million viewers during its 100 minute slot.

The eighth in the Torchwood series had 15.0% of the audience share and was the 10th most watched programme of the day.

As always the overnight figure is only half the story with the final ratings, which include those who record the programme and watch it within seven days, being released in 10 days time.
