Thinkbox Quarterly Review: January - December 2012
Nickable Charts: New figures show that TV viewing in the UK is continuing to expand as people watch additional TV on-demand via TV sets, tablets, smartphones and laptops. In total, the average UK viewer watched 4 hours, 4 minutes of TV a day in 2012 – the year when TV in the UK became 100% digital following analogue switch-off. Full year viewing figures for 2012 from the Broadcasters’ Audience Research Board (BARB) reveal that viewers in the UK watched an average of 4 hours, 1 minute a day of linear TV on a TV set, a minute below the record level set in 2011. This is the third consecutive year that linear TV viewing on a TV set has remained above an average of four hours a day.
