Stath Lets Flats makes solid return

Roughcut’s estate agent sitcom returned for a third outing with an audience slightly short of the 350,000 who tuned in for the previous series in a 10pm Monday slot in August 2019 – but marginally up on the 2.6% share.

It was no match for the 690,000 (5.8%) slot average.

Stath came up against Upland TV’s Channel 5 four-parter 1000 Years A Slave which opened with 360,000 (3.9%) across the 10pm hour. It was broadly in line with the 320,000 (2.9%) who watched single doc Racism: My Story in a Thursday 10pm slot in September 2020.

Elsewhere the second ep of BBC3’s dating format I Like The Way U Move aired on BBC1 from 10.45pm-11.30pm to 540,000 (8.9%). The show slipped marginally from the opener’s 670,000 (10.8%) and remained down on the debut of Eating With My Ex, which opened with 840,000 (8.4%) in a 10.40pm Tuesday slot in March 2019.

ITV’s stripped four-part drama The Long Call continued with 2.6m (15.7%), lower than the 3.9m (24.5%) who tuned in for Monday’s opener.

It was behind Alex Scott’s appearance on BBC1’s Who Do You Think You Are? which informed 2.7m (16.8%), some way down on the 3.7m (22.7%) who tuned in for last week’s Judy Dench ep.

Channel 5’s Our Yorkshire Farm was next in line with 1.9m (11.6%), according to Barb data provided by overnights.tv.

Across the 60 minutes from 9.15pm, C4’s Murder Island (780,000 / 5.4%) narrowly outperformed the second ep of BBC2 FX import Impeachment (620,000 / 4.3%).

C4’s Great British Bake Off was the most-watched show of the day with 5.5m (29.5%) across the 75-minutes from 8pm.
