Nibelungen second-night ratings

29%.

Every two-night miniseries experiences a drop-off on the second night. We had a 1.2% drop-off — not negligible, but not at all bad.

Die Nibelungen therefore becomes:

• The highest-rated movie-for-TV on German television for 2004 (and will be picking up Blickpunkt-Film’s “DIVA Award” on this account in January):
• The single highest-rated dramatic presentation of the German network Sat.1 in the network’s history.

Woo.
