Channel 4's maternity ward documentary, 'One Born Every Minute', continues in strong form with an audience of 3.6 million viewers including its Channel 4+1 ratings.

Five attracted 3.2 million viewers, earning a 12.6% share of viewing, with 'CSI', ahead of BBC Two's three million-strong audience for its Winter Olympics coverage.
