After "24" strongly underperformed in its season debut in the UK just weeks ago, "Nip Tuck" debuted at the 10pm slot for Cabsat network Sky One, with "24" as its pre-empt, and still collapsed from its former seasons ratings.

Both shows have had huge promotions but are heavily down from their former premieres which saw ratings of above 1.0 Million viewers.

"24"s second episode was not impressive either, it pulled 533,000 viewers on average to give Sky One the sixth place ranking for the hour, but it was the most watched Cabsat show for the hour.
