ITV1's reality show, now in its eighth series, launched with 8.9 million viewers and a 35% share between 9pm and 10.30pm, according to unofficial overnights. This was up by 200,000 viewers on last year's I'm a Celebrity premiere but three share points down. However, pre-publicity about its most valuable find ever pulled in viewers in their droves to BBC1's Antiques Roadshow, which attracted 10.1 million viewers and a 39% share between 7.15pm and 8.15pm. The discovery of a model of Antony Gormley's Angel of the North was hailed as the Antiques Roadshow's first £1m discovery. This £1m valuation means that the 6ft-high 17ft-wide bronze model is worth more than Gateshead council paid for the actual statue and is worth three times more than any other item discovered on the show. Antiques Roadshow peaked at 11 million for the 15 minutes from 7.45pm, while I'm a Celebrity hit a high of 9.5 million for the quarter hour from 9.45pm. Something for you all to ponder:

ANTIQUES ROADSHOW IS THA BOMB!!! I like it when the little old ladies bring in something they bought at a garage sale/flea market for 25p and then the dude says this was Pontius Pilate's teapot and saucer set, and it is worth 1,500,000,000,000 pounds you are now a zillionaire!!!
