Utter myth. They are a shithouse TV creation, monsters that only exist on the fringes of real Essex which, to be fair, is pretty fucking grim nowdays.

 

There's two types of people in Essex. Towie types and Middle aged hairy fat bald bastards who support the EDL.

See, even the poor buggers who live there can't defend the shithole.

Ever been there for any length of time? No.

When you do, you will know what you are talking about.

Sretno Croatia!

Well done England.

 

Čestitamo Croatia.

[Fergie86 376]

For the first time this tournament I think England will reach the final Croatia look dead on there feet and have been poor for the last 2 games while we are improving. Now I have said that we will get battered 3-0. If we do get to the final France or Belgium will destroy us

Yeah but your from Essex so the rest of England doesn't lay claim to your type either, we just tolerate you. Might as well be a foreign country with all the TOWIE types!

 

I'll excuse the day drinking as a survival mechanism for living in Essex and the fried mars as you're TOWIE style mother and father didn't know how to cook properly so that's what you got.

 

Shu’ uuuuuup.

Wrong once more. Regards, a centre-left 22-year-old with the vocabulary of a reasonable, unashamedly middle-class prick and a full head of hair fuck you very much.

 

You might want to work on your ill-advised stereotypes too if you’re going with ‘hairy’ and ‘bald’ in the same description.

Live where?  Are you still talking about Essex?  I don't live in Essex, and never have.

At least you admit to being a prick, and your a TOWIE type as you think your middle class when you're really some poverty ridden council tramp, presumably.

 

And you can be bald and hairy.... look around you next time you're at the beach on a warm summers day in Margate.

Presumably. Yep. To any single-minded individual with sod all knowledge of the area.

 

It’s still you’re, by the way. But you got it third time lucky, so there’s hope for you yet. Presumably. Though we know how wrong presumptions can be.

People who get excited at seeing huge numbers of people watching television events are acting like they've had their own world cup victory on internet forums where they talk about this stuff. Each to their own. Here are the stats these lunatics are getting excited about, the highest peak for a show since the 2012 Olympics was achieved last night. Football proving once again it can be the big draw it once was. These figures only include people watching at home on TVs, not in pubs, on big screens or other business locations.

Here's the updated viewership tally for this world cup:

 

Monday 18th June 2018

England 2 v 1 Tunisia - Avg - 13.7m (60.9%)  - Peak 18.3m (66.9%) -

Match Time 7pm / Peak time: 8:45-8:50pm

 

Saturday 25th June 2018

England 6 v 1 Panama - Avg  9.9m (72.9%) - Peak 14.1m (82.9%)

Match Time 3pm / Peak time: 2:35-2:40pm

 

Thursday 28th June 2018

England 0 v 1 Belgium - Avg 16.7m (72.2%) - Peak 18.6m (72.0%) 

Match time 7pm / Peak Time: 

 

Monday 3rd July 2018

England 1 v 1 (4-3 pens) Colombia Avg 20.8m (77.4) - Peak 23.8m (79.9%)

Match time: 7pm / Peak Time 9.45pm-9.50pm

 

Saturday 7th July 2018

England 2 v 0 Sweden Avg 17.4m (84.4%) / Peak 19.64m (87.7%) 

Match time: 3pm / Peak Time: 16:45

 

Quick breakdown 

Avg - Average viewership during the match itself.

Peak - Peak viewership of the entire match.

Share's in brackets are percentage of people at home watching a telly who were watching the match.

Peaks are measured in 5 minute intervals.

 

For reference the 10th most watched broadcast in history is the London Olympics opening ceremony in 2012 with 24.4m viewers. 

The most watched television broadcast in history is the 1966 world cup final with 32.3m viewers. 

 

Real possibility of one of those being broken if we make it to the semis. Too many pub watchers on Saturday to trouble it.

 

Updated for England v Sweden. Guaranteed two more England matches now then. As suspected Saturday afternoon brought the raw numbers down but the share rockets upwards. Semi-Finals look like the best chance of a high number, as I guess a lot of people will be off to the pub or nearest big screen if we made to the final.
