TV pick-up used to be a thing when 17 million people watched Corrie in real time.

Those types of real time viewing figures are limited to live England matches in the euros/World Cup, and very unusual events like the PM’s covid broadcast back in 2020

I’m surprised the US doesn’t have the phenomenon during the super bowl. I guess the lack of kettles and the main attraction of the Super Bowl being the adverts dampens it down though.

We have the Super Flush... when everyone goes to the bathroom at half-time and at the end of the game.
