The tv share figures are in for the second week of July - hotter than the first - and Channel 5 has again beaten Channel 4 - 4.7% plays 4.3%. When you add +1 it's a tie - 5.1% each. But Channel 5 viewers watched on average for five minutes longer.
This new world order may continue till, perhaps, the Media Guardian Edinburgh Television Festival, when Jay Hunt, leader of creative renewal at C4, will explain to terrier Boyd Hilton of Heat Magazine when the new generation of hit shows will be arriving - and who has commissioned them. The word "consternation" has been used to describe the current mood at Horseferry Road.
The Edinburgh tv event is on August 22. On September 30, John McCririck's tribunal hearing against his dismissal from C4 Racing begins - seven days of evidence have been pencilled in, with witness including Jay Hunt.
