美剧：《唐顿庄园》第三季完美收官 迄今收视最高季

Downton Abbey finished its third season on U.K. commercial broadcaster ITV1 on Sunday with a season-high ratings performance, bringing to an end what the network says was the highest-rated season of the show to-date when including some delayed same-day viewing.
周日晚上，《唐顿庄园》（Downton Abbey）第三季在英国商业广播电视台ITV1以本季收视率最高的一集完美收官，并据电视台称第三季也是是该剧迄今为止收视最高的一季。
The costume drama drew a peak audience of 10.7 million and an average viewership of 10.1 million when including viewers on ITV1+1, a catch-up network that re-airs shows with an hour delay. At the end of September, the show had reached a then-season high of 10.0 million average viewers. "Downton bows out with a series high - peak of 10.7m (av 10.1m)," an ITV spokeswoman tweeted on Monday.
这部古装剧的最高收视人数达到了1070万，包括ITV1+1和延迟一小时重播的电视台在内，平均收视人数为1010万。九月底，这部剧平均收视人数为1000万观众，达到了当时的季度最高。
ITV also said that the third season of the drama, which in the U.S. will start on PBS in January, averaged 9.7 million viewers when including delayed viewing on the same day, for example via DVR. That makes it the highest-rated season so far, it highlighted. Season one had averaged 8.4 million viewers, followed by an average of 9.5 million for season two.
“《唐顿庄园》以剧集最高——最高1070万（平均1010万）的收视谢幕，”一位ITV发言人周一发推说。ITV同样也说，该剧的第三季并将于1月份在美国PBS电视台播出，而第三季的平均收视人数则为970万，也是迄今为止收视最高的一季。
The Sunday average rating made Downton the biggest show of the night, but in terms of peak viewership, The X Factor, also on ITV1, beat it with 10.9 million. The music competition show drew an average of 9.2 million viewers on Sunday. Again, the figures included viewership on ITV1+1.
周日的平均收视使得《唐顿庄园》成为了当晚的的大赢家，但谈到最高收视人数，同样在ITV1播出的《英国偶像》（The X Factor）以1090万略胜一筹。这个音乐竞赛节目在周日平均收视达到了920万。同样，这个数字也包括了ITV1+1的观众。
BBC's celebrity dance show Strictly Come Dancing continued to beat X Factor on both weekend nights in terms of average audience figures. It drew an average of 9.6 million on Sunday, but its 10.4 million peak came in slightly below X Factor.
而BBC的明星舞蹈秀《舞动奇迹》（Strictly Come Dancing）在周末两晚的平均收视人数都超过了《英国偶像》，其周日的平均收视为960万，但最高收视为1040万，略低于《英国偶像》。
On Saturday, X Factor had reached an average audience of 7.8 million, with a peak viewership of 8.6 million. Strictly had recorded an average audience of 9.8 million, with a peak viewership of 10.8 million.
《英国偶像》的周六平均收视达到了780万，最高收视为860万，而《舞动奇迹》周六的平均收视为980万，最高收视为1080万。
On Sunday, U.K. tabloids had written about a health scare for Downton Abbey star Maggie Smith.
周日，英国小报报道《唐顿庄园》女星玛姬·史密斯（Maggie Smith）健康可能出现状况。
But a spokesperson for the actress said: "Reports in the Sunday Mirror and Mail On Sunday that Maggie Smith has been rushed to hospital with a heart scare are untrue. She is fine and well and at home."
但这位女演员的发言人称：“《周日镜报》和《周日邮报》报道玛姬·史密斯因心脏病被匆匆送往医院是不实新闻。她好端端的呆在家里。”
