Success criteria seem to be getting tougher on BBC1. There'll be no third series of the Zola-story-relocated- to-Newcastle department store drama The Paradise. Its average audience over 16 episodes - 5.5m. Costs also may have been high - certainly the Lambton Estate, on the fringes of Sunderland had to invest in repairs to Lambton Castle, and the series provided work for a pool of 100 local extras.
Meanwhile, anxieties about replacing Ben Miller with Kris Marshall as lead for the third series of Caribbean cop caper Death In Paradise have been eased - last night's episode scored 7.2m in the overnights. Ben's best - 6.9m.
