The BBC have released their viewing figures for this years Glastonbury festival and whilst 15.4m peolpe viewed the coverage spread across BBC Two, Three, Four and HD this is around 1m down on last years figures.Â
The BBC, who produced around 150 hours of television coverage, 60 hours of radio output alongside a website featuring 170 hours worth of video, in addition to running the BBC Introducing Stage, put the figures down to a combination of the hot weather and the World Cup.
The final night of the festival averaged 834,000 viewers on BBC2 between 10pm and 1am, though, somewhat unsurprisingly, Sunday afternoon”™s viewing figures were as low as 559,000.
Somehow though I don”™t think all this will have any affect on the festival itself.
