So The Brits record it's lowest ever viewing figures, (in recent times). I agree it's time for the Brits Boss to take stock. I believe the biggest issue for the low TV ratings is the fact that the potential viewers already know the results before the TV show. (It's like watching a football match on TV after you know the final score - Just not as exciting). At two and a half hours the TV show is too long for many to make a positive viewing commitment. So, my suggestions: 
1. Go live. Having to make the show simpler to accommodate going live will be more than compensated by the excitement of being live. 
2. Shorten the show - Other than the &quot;Lifetime Achievement&quot; no artist should be doing more that 1 song - or a brief medley at the most! 
3. Go back to Earls Court 2 - The &quot;short and wide&quot; auditorium worked better than &quot;long and thin&quot;. (And for &quot;live&quot; you could achieve two stages, side by side). 
4. Get more &quot;Audience attracting high profile&quot; award givers. 
That's just for starters!!! 
For the record, I enjoyed the show, both being there and on TV, but it needs to move on. [size=4][/size][/quote]
