BT Sport reel in their highest viewing figures in TWO MONTHS with 652,000 football fans watching the return of the Bundesliga… but it’s still outshone by Midsomer Murders

The clamour for the return of live football in the UK was made clear by BT Sports’ viewing figures as the Bundesliga returned this weekend. 

The broadcaster recorded it’s highest viewing figures in two months as 652,000 tuned in to watch Borussia Dortmund take on Schalke on Saturday afternoon. 

It is a dramatic increase on the audience Germany’s top flight usually pulls from a British audience. For example, Der Klassiker in November pulled in just 93,000.
