The three episodes of Wogan broadcast this week averaged 9.46 million viewers, ranking at 44th place in the charts.
Although a post-watershed series, The Marriage (1986) proved to be a more popular programme with viewers than Wogan. Only in its first week of broadcast was it marginally out-rated by Wogan, with the average viewing figures for the six weeks of the documentary ending up as 10.62 million (31st place in the charts) as opposed to Wogan's average of 9.61 million (42nd place in the charts) for the same period.
