The second episode of Doctor Who’s 15th season suffered a fairly substantial drop in ratings – with just 1.58 million viewers tuning in to watch Lux on BBC One last night (Saturday 19th April).

That’s down from the 2 million who watched last week’s season premiere The Robot Revolution and marks the lowest overnight viewership ratings in the show’s history, the first time ever that the figures have dipped below 2 million.

Of course, it’s worth noting that these figures don’t tell the whole story, given the figure doesn’t take into account anyone who watched the episode on BBC iPlayer, where it debuted at 8am on Saturday prior to its BBC One broadcast.

The consolidated ratings, which include iPlayer, devices and catch-up, will be released at a later date.
