Part 2/12:
This trend of decreasing audience figures is part of a broader pattern. When comparing the current ratings to those of Series 12, the decline becomes even more apparent. The last season started with nearly 4.88 million viewers but gradually dropped to around 4.19 million, suggesting that fans are tuning out at an accelerating rate. The drop from 4.43 million to under 4 million is particularly steep, indicating dissatisfaction or fatigue with the current direction of the show.
