From Media Guardian:
Coronation Street's murder plotline proved a winner on Friday night, as the soap pulled in an average of 11.6 million viewers, half the TV audience at the time.
A peak of 12.4 million people tuned in to ITV1 at 7.55pm to see Tracy Barlow clobber Charlie Stubbs with a statue, setting up that classic soap cliffhanger - a hospital bedside vigil for the coma victim.
The 11.6 million average figure was the best for Coronation Street on a Friday night since 2005.
A second instalment of the soap, at 8.30pm, again did well, pulling in 10.8 million viewers and a 43% share.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Sunday's got 10.8 million and a 41% share.

Anthing over 10 million is good compaired to today's standards. And 12.4 is excellent.

Not for an entire show. People just switched it on towards the end. Means they weren't that bothered about the rest.

It was a Friday and a lot of people go out.
Last nights ratings were excellent - the first episode got 12.3m and the second episode got 12.1m.
Not often you get such high ratings these days.
Eastenders got just 9.4m.

So more people wanted to see Charlie die than Fred. Hmm.

Perhaps more people tuned in to watch Traceys downfall rather than Charlies demise ;D
