In the UK: Bad Wolf : 6 229 490 viewers, the the highest number by any means, but we are now in the Summer time so we have a lot of people going away on holidays. In Canada: No new info on Canadian ratings for the series at this time.

Now here's what I've heard.
The BBC has not only renewed the show for a second season but also for a third. Somehow they changed their regulations and now can renew programs for more than one season at a time.
Also, word floating around is that the reason it hasn't aired in the US is due to the price tag plus that the BBC is insisting whatever channel/station carries the new show also agrees to carry reruns of the other versions. This is probably what scared off SciFi Channel and other stations in the USA.

As for the price tag being to large I doubt that after all CBC Canada has air the show, and they are cheaper bastards when it comes to money than the BBC. Besides the price tag on DW has always been a large one, but still not so much that PBS hasn't been able to pick it up in the past.

This is probably what scared off SciFi Channel and other stations in the USA. This I think that this is just a rummor because none of the other networks around the world are being made to run the eariler seasons of the show. There is no need for the BBC to push that in the US since the PBS stations have already done that.

New Earth:
The first overnight viewing figures are now in for New Earth and it seems to have maintained last year's strong performance: an average of 8.0 million viewers watched the episode, with an average 38.6 per cent audience share. The episode was not only BBC One's top-rated programme on Saturday evening and first in its timeslot, with the main competition - ITV1's Harry Potter movie - being watched by about 4.8m people (23.6%) while Doctor Who was on; it was also Saturday's top-rated television programme, with Casualty second-placed with 7.0m. The start of 'New Earth' saw an increase in BBC One's ratings of 2.1m, from 5.7m (30.9%) to 7.8m (38.5%), rising to a peak of 8.3m (39.0%) for the last fifteen minutes; when the episode finished, 2.9m people switched off BBC One. (This is in line with last year's episodes, when two to three million viewers came and went, specifically for Doctor Who.) These figures are also 1.0 million up on Doctor Who's performance in the overnights on the same Saturday last year ('Aliens of London' on 16 April), when an average of 7.0m (34%) were watching. The ratings success has been reported by BBC News and CBBC News. (Thanks to 'Marcus')
