All Round to Mrs Brown’s is viewers’ favourite post-watershed Saturday-night show
All Round To Mrs Brown’s has proved a solid favourite with viewers after drawing in the biggest audience of its timeslot for another week.
The second instalment of the post-watershed chat show was watched by an average of 5.5 million people, just over one million more than part one of The Voice UK final on ITV.
Kicking off at 9.15pm, the hour-long programme hosted by Brendan O’Carroll’s potty-mouthed Irish matriarch peaked at 5.9 million viewers.
Its debut last week was equally popular, drawing in the same average audience and peaking at the slightly lower number of 5.7 million viewers.
Viewers took to social media to share how much they enjoyed watching special guest Holly Willoughby show her cheeky side, especially when she tried to help Mrs Brown solve a crossword puzzle with the word “penis”.
Holly was joined on Mrs Brown’s sofa by her This Morning co-host Phillip Schofield, along with both their mothers, and singer Lulu.
Meanwhile, ITV’s The Voice UK, airing from 8.30-10.20pm, saw a peak of five million people tune in as finalist Michelle John was voted off the competition.
It drew in an average audience of 4.4 million viewers – slightly more than last Saturday’s 4.2 million average.
Both shows were once again overshadowed by Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway earlier in the evening.
The penultimate episode of the 7.00pm ITV show, which challenged presenter Dermot O’Leary to steal items from people’s baskets in a supermarket (watch below), attracted an impressive audience of 6.3 million viewers on average, peaking at 7.7 million viewers.
