If you’ve been enjoying BBCs Outcasts, then savour every episode from now as the show won’t be around much longer. The BBC have shunted the show to a late night Sunday timeslot due to falling ratings.

4.4 million viewers tuned in to watch the first episode last week, but ratings have dropped with each subsequent installment. Episode 4 saw just 2.6 million people watching.

Episode 5 will still air at 9pm next Monday 21st February, however the series will then move to Sundays at 10.25pm.

The move all but confirms that the show won’t see a second series. And it probably means that we can ‘look forward’ to more reality TV shows in future.

The final schedule:

Episode 5 – Monday 21 February at 9pm on BBC1
Episode 6 – Sunday 27 February at 10.25pm on BBC1
Episode 7 – Sunday 6 March at 10.25pm (TBC) on BBC1
Episode 8 – Sunday 13 March at 10.25pm (TBC) on BBC1

  • i haven’t been watching outcast as its on too late as i am only 12.

  • Shame – it’s FINALLY getting exciting, but I suppose it’s too late now… There goes another original idea. I suppose we’ll get another re-imagining of a classic or a talent show because apparently that’s what people want. (rant over)

      i agree with you like my post says reality shows and as you say talent all very well but how unimaginative …. ebody’s becoming brain dead

    This is stupid. They should let the show finish in its original slot. It’s not like they are selling commercial breaks in the slot on Mondays.
