The Diamond Jubilee by numbers
Despite the complaints, viewing figures were high.
The most-watched event was the lavish Diamond Jubilee pop concert,which had an average of 14.7m viewers and a peak of 17m.
That was higher than the Party At The Palace during 2002’s Golden Jubilee,which was seen by an average of 12.5m viewers.
The Queen’s five-minute message was watched by an average 5.6m on BBC One and 3.5m on ITV.
Tuesday’s state service and procession attracted 4.5m and 6.2m respectively on BBC One, with a further 1.7m watching on ITV.
That compares with figures of 6.51m for the state service and 5.74m for the procession in 2002, with just under one million tuning in on ITV.
