Almost half a million watch pile-dweller program on SF

 Swiss Television is taking stock of the "Pfyn Pile Dwellers - Stone Age Live" program, which ran from July 25 to August 21, 2007. The first ten broadcasts were watched by an average of 486,000 people, which corresponds to a market share of 50.9 percent. The second broadcasts of the episodes on SF info were watched by an average of 81,000 people. At peak times, up to 10,000 users per day visited the show's website. The webcam with live images from the pile-dwelling village has been viewed 44,000 times so far. The scene of the program cannot be visited. SF has therefore set up an information center in the "Trotte" in Pfyn - with a live webcam, information about the project, a small archaeological exhibition and an online game. The information center is visited by up to 800 people every day. SF expects around 10,000 visitors by the end of the project on August 21, 2007.
