Well I know that every guy I spoke to regarding TV plans for Christmas day had scheduled a viewing of the Dr Who special. Most of them had never shown an interest in the series before. I was puzzled, until I realised that this was the episode Kylie Minogue was to make an appearance in.

It seems that the majority of the male population thought the same too. Kylie’s guest appearance on the show boosted ratings higher than they have ever been since its revival.

A massive 12.2 million people tuned in to watch the Dr Who special; which is half the available audience. An upgrade on last year where the Christmas special managed to lure in 37% of the audience.

Whether her acting was any good I couldn’t tell you. Personally I was too busy doing what you do best at Christmas – eating lots of chocolate. Good or not it seemed to do the job though.
