Law and Order Slips in Ratings; Overtaken by Who Do You Think You Are?

<h1>Law and Order Slips in Ratings; Overtaken by Who Do You Think You Are?</h1>Author: <a title="Andrew Regan" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/andrew-regan/131216.htm">Andrew Regan</a> The UK version of the television series Law and Order saw 600,000 fewer viewers on March 2nd, compared to the show’s second installment debut the week before. Law & Order: UK, which is based on the US drama franchise, now has 5.8 million viewers and a 24 per cent share in the 9:00 pm hour - down from its launch rating of 6.4 million viewers and a 26 per cent share last Monday. It has been overtaken by genealogy show Who Do You Think You Are? The genealogy programme, featuring actor Kevin Whately, pulled in 6 million viewers and a 25 per cent share during the 9:00 pm hour - a significant jump from last week's 5.7 million viewers and a 23 per cent share. Revenge of the Bin Men raked in 1.7 million viewers and a 7 per cent share during the 9:00 pm hour, while US drama Heroes brought in 1.5 million viewers and a 6 per cent share between 9:00 pm and 9:45 pm. The new series Extreme Fishing with Robson Green claimed 1.4 million and a 6 per cent share during the 9:00 pm hour, while another new series, Grow Your Own Drugs, started off with 2.5 million viewers and a 10 per cent share between 8:00 pm and 8:30 pm. The documentary programme, The Real Pink Panther: Lord Victor Hervey, has attracted 1 million fans and a 4 per cent share between 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm. Another US drama, 24, brought in 414,000 viewers and a multichannel share of 1.9 per cent during the 9:00 pm hour. But with some programmes being aired at or around the same times, it’s inevitable for one programme to lose out to another - even if a viewer enjoys both programmes equally. That’s where a personal video recorder can come in handy. If two of your favourite television programmes conflict in times, you don’t have to choose between them. You can simply watch one live while recording the other to watch later. Or, you can use your PVR (Personal Video Recorder) service on a timer to record programmes when you can’t be at home to watch them. Moreover, if you use a PVR service you can usually take advantage of a number of perks - such as free standard Sky Box set-up – and choose a channel package to suit your taste in TV programmes. Therefore, if you buy <a href="http://packages.sky.com/">Sky Plus</a> or a PVR of your choice then it is possible to enjoy all of the TV programmes you love - no matter what time or day they’re aired.About the Author: Andrew Regan writes for a digital marketing agency.
