Yesterday, more than three million people watched the debate about the failed formation reconnaissance for at least five minutes on NPO television. This is evident from figures from the KijkOnderzoek Foundation.
At the peak (6:50 pm), 964,000 people watched and on average someone watched for 19 minutes. 53 percent of the viewers were male, says viewing rating analyst Robin Muurling. “And it was a fairly gray audience: 78 percent of the viewers were over 50 and 53 percent were over 65.”
Last night the broadcasts on NPO 2 stopped and people could switch to the theme channel NPO Politics. But many viewers watched the continuation of the debate on RTL Z, which continued to broadcast into the night.
Most viewers for Passion
Between 8.30 pm and 2 am, 417,000 people watched RTL Z. As a result, the broadcaster achieved a night market share of 7.4 percent, which is the highest score ever for the commercial TV channel.
Most viewers were ahead of yesterday, by the way The Passion from KRO-NCRV. The eleventh edition of the TV show about the suffering of Jesus watched nearly 2.6 million people. That was more than 100,000 fewer than last year. The Passion was broadcast this year from Roermond.
