Hier der heute getätigte inoffizielle O-Ton eines BBC-Mitarbeiters zu den Quoten:
„The BBC are more than happy. Doctor Who is doing better on overnights than the majority of their dramas have done on consolidated figures all year.“
„Here's a list of all the BBC dramas in the past twelve months which have averaged over 7.0m:
"Gunpowder" (7.4m, one-off miniseries)
"Call The Midwife" (10.0m)
"Death In Paradise" (8.34m)
"Silent Witness" (8.75m)
"Cormoran Strike" adaptation (8.1m)
"McMafia" (7.2m)
"Bodyguard" (infinity)
...and now Doctor Who (8.2m after seven episodes, TV-only without four-screen figures)“
