Vaughan sitcom sheds viewers

Johnny Vaughan's new comedy 'orrible has lost 400,000 viewers in its first week.

The BBC2 show's ratings plummeted from 2.5million last week to 2.1million this, according to unofficial overnight figures.

The 16 per cent slump meant the show was comfortably beaten by Channel 4's documentary The Six Wives Of Henry VIII, which attracted 3.6million viewers on Monday night.

'orrible attracted less than 10 per cent of the viewing audience.
