The final consolidated +4 ratings for Doctor Whoke S02E02 have

is the lowest rating episode of all time ever since Doctor Who
began in 1963.

Two completely different stories from two completely different
eras of the show, so a bit like comparing apples and oranges.

I didn't think either episode was THAT bad actually, but they
are episodes form eras of "Doctor Who" where the show is clearly
on a downward trend among viewers.

The episode only added 1.42 million viewers over 7 days and
streaming to the dismal record breaking 1.58 viewers that
watched it overnight.

This stat alone shows why the overnights are no longer of any
importance and the consolidated seven figure is more indicative.

Nearly as many people watched the episode over seven days
streamed/time-shifted (1.42m) as they did on broadcast (1.58m).
