An odd "biopic" charting T-Rex's rise to fame failed to strike a chord with viewers last night.

T-Rex: A Dinosaur in Hollywood, which featured interviews with the likes of King Kong, pulled in just 2.06 million (9.5%) for BBC One in the 8pm hour, landing the channel fourth place amongst the terrestrials. ITV1's The Bill more than trebled the audience, averaging 7.25 million (33.5%), while on Channel 4, How Clean Is Your House? and It's Me or the Dog put in 3.24 million (15.3%) and 3.55 million (16.1%) respectively. BBC Two began with 1.88 million (8.9%) for A Week of Dressing Dangerously but rose to 2.86 million (12.9%) for Rick Stein's French Odyssey in the second half of the hour. Five trailed with 1.37 million (6.3%) for Killer Shark Live.
