Tom Daley's Diving Show Makes Ratings Splash!
Tom Daley's reality TV show Splash! has seen off criticism to become a ratings smash.
The ITV show had its debut episode on Saturday evening and pulled in an audience of more than six million viewers - despite having taken a pasting from numerous viewers on Twitter.
The show sees [uuid=d96830a1-f6ca-47c8-9b90-860eef9a7b85]a group of celebs[/uuid] being instructed in diving by Olympic medal-winner Tom, before being judged on their efforts by Team GB diving coach Andy Banks, Olympic silver medal-winner Leon Taylor and comic Jo Brand.
TV presenter Tim Lovejoy tweeted: "What’s going on? Is the joke on me? Am I being filmed on my sofa? #splash. Did they ever explain why Jo Brand is a judge?"
And former Cold Feet star John Thomson called the show a "new low for television".
But the show became Saturday night's most-popular programme, with Omid Djalili and Jake Canuso going through to the next round of the contest.
