Season-to-date, Sci Fi reports that Doctor Who is currently averaging a 1.28 household rating and an average audience of 1.5 million viewers for the season.

Is it just me or do these ratings seem to be going up and down like a seesaw every week?

"Sutekh is supreme!" Gabriel Woolf, who played Sutekh in the Fourth Doctor story, Pyramids of Mars, will be playing the voice of Satan himself in the second series episode, The Satan's Pit. Oooh, I can't wait to hear that!

That's all for now-sorry this is so short-it's been another busy week. Getting ready for Marcon takes it's toll. ;) *heehee*

Everyone have a fantastic weekend! Those going to Marcon-I can't wait to see you! :)
