The first episode of the Chibnall era had an overnight audience of 8.2m (10.9m with catch up). The latest episode, the last episode before he bows out with the centennial special, had an overnight audience of 2.2m, a drop of 6m. The ratings are now at the level they were when it was first cancelled in 1989. If RTD wasn't coming back I really do think that the show would've been cancelled after Chibnall and Whittaker left.
