And ultimately The 1% Club rated considerably better than either of the soaps, so deserved the slot.
8.30pm would have been too late for The Masked Singer as well (which also beat both soaps) and both soaps did quite a bit better on Boxing Day than Christmas Day, so I don’t see the issue really. The soaps don’t have the appeal to a casual audience any more and I can see why they were reduced down. I hope they don’t go back to an hour next year.
If they were to, they could have started an hour earlier, with Sing 2 pushed back to 3.10pm (or removed entirely seeing as it rated quite badly).
