BBC wins TV in 2016 with 31 out of 40 top programmes - but which was your favourite?

The figures were hailed by BBC content boss Charlotte Moore as evidence of how BBC1 "continues to unite us as a nation with shows that feel modern, fresh and in touch with our audience". A total of 31 of the top 40 were broadcast by BBC1 while just nine were on ITV. Last year the split was 28 for BBC1 and 12 for ITV. The chart has been compiled by the Press Association from data produced by the Broadcasters' Audience Research Board (Barb). Next year's chart is likely to look very different, however, as the BBC will be without Bake Off - which has been snapped up by Channel 4 - and Planet Earth. There are also few big sporting events for either channel to broadcast. One show missing from this year's top 40 is the final of Strictly Come Dancing, as full ratings data is not yet available. But its addition to the chart would not change the split between 31 BBC programmes and nine for ITV. Any other broadcast hoping to make the top 40 before the end of the year would need to attract an audience of at least 11.1 million. No programme has topped 11 million viewers over Christmas since 2013. Here is the list of the top 40 highest-rated TV programmes of 2016 so far. 1.
