That's pretty decent though - if it remains over 1.5m it'll certainly be recommissioned. I think it'll need to drop to 1.1/1.2m to be at risk. The first week of January with a staggering of when people return to work/school a bit tricky to judge to. Tipping Point and Deal seem to settle around 1.7m, but Jeopardy may be bringing in viewers that don't watch phone which would be attractive to advertisers.
I watched a full show for the first time since the premiere yesterday - the gameplay is fine but the production really is lacking and dated. The general answer as a question format is just nonsensical too - if someone asks you "What is 3"? the answer is "a number", not how many home secretaries there were between two specific dates. It's central premise actually ruins the show.
