It is reported that the ratings for Chris Moyles' new show on five have rocketed by 100,000 after just one day.
Although the audience numbers do not compare well against big shows on ITV or the BBC, they represent a 25% jump for the 7pm slot on Channel 5, which, up to now, has pulled in just 400,000 viewers.
Live With Chris Moyles, which last night featured an audience of hairdressers and a woman who runs a dating agency for millionaires, pulled in 500,000 viewers compared with 400,000 for its debut on Monday.
However, it was not enough to seriously dent the competition. The Channel 4 News pulled in 1 million viewers; ITV1's Emmerdale was seen by 8 million; BBC2's Star Trek picked up 2 million and Watchdog on BBC1 notched up 4.7 million.
