Those figures will be included in the total number of viewers. However, if many are like you and watch in advance on iPlayer, it does beg the question "who on Earth is watching the linear broadcasts"?

It usually clashes with Emmerdale too, so anyone who wants to watch both probably watches EastEnders on iPlayer.

Poor Royston. It's his contractual turn to have a stint in the big house, "so it is".
As far as I'm aware none of my neighbours have ever been to prison. If I lived on Coronation Street they would all have done some time, that's if they weren't murdered in their own homes beforehand. All that local crime can't do much for the house prices.
ITV have already started one, they have distributed T-shirts to influencers. Free the Weatherfield One worked because the viewers did it, not because a press department pushed it.

Maybe that's why on the rare occassion the soaps do tackle the subject of selling a house the house prices usually are ridiculously low.

That may have something to do with the fact that there is very little of substance inside once you get through the front door.
