Concerted effort

BBC Music's experiment with primetime music shows on BBC1 is still struggling. Last night, Sam Smith, a popular singer/songwriter with Universal Music, and Fearne Cotton, a BBC disc-jockey, brought in an average of 1.82m viewers according to the overnight ratings - a 9.2% share of the available audience. Scanning the dimly-lit live audience, it looked like a few over-34s had crept in, which is not what the BBC is after.

Mr Smith has a new album of tunes with similar chord progressions available for the Christmas market.
