NOTES: “UFC 70: Worlds Collide” last Saturday averaged 2.8 million viewers in the U.S. on Spike TV. The event was UFC’s first in England since ’02 and was shown on Spike instead of the normal PPV (CP, 4/25)....Tuesday’s Manchester United-AC Milan UEFA Champions League match averaged a 36% audience share and 8.5 million viewers on ITV1, peaking at a 39% share and 9.7 million viewers. The showing marks the net’s best Tuesday night performance since last July and the best performance by a soccer match on any U.K. channel this year (DAILY VARIETY, 4/25).
