| Australian ratings for The Hungry Earth Posted: 06 Jun 2010 01:46 PM PDT  The Hungry Earth has debuted in Australia to excellent ratings. TV Tonight reports that the episode averaged 914,000 viewers in the five major capital cities, again despite stiff competition from the commercial networks. However, it was not the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's top-rating program of the day, instead coming a close second to a new episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot which averaged 926,000 viewers. The corresponding Confidential Cutdown also rated a solid 635,000 viewers in the five major capitals.http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com   | ||

Broadcast on BBC One this evening, the event is intended to honour those that have made a positive contribution to television over the past 12 months – although for some reason a "Special Award" is being given to Simon Cowell. So much for "positive". In the nominations department, Doctor Who doesn't get a look-in – nothing for David Tennant, Catherine Tate, Bernard Cribbins, or any of the new series cast and crew. Which begs the question: Why is the TARDIS there at all? With no nominations for Doctor Who – and the only obvious interest in Suranne Jones (Mona Lisa's Revenge in the most recent series of The Sarah Jane Adventures) and Sophie Okonedo (Liz 10 in The Beast Below) – it can only be for promotional or "big announcement" purposes. Time will tell…  | ||

| Posted: 06 Jun 2010 06:00 AM PDT Assuming the episode is still called The Lodger by the time we get to Saturday (apparently "Don't Go Up The Stairs" has also been a title), here's a preview of the next episode of Doctor Who.
The Lodger originated in an edition of Doctor Who Magazine in 2006; in that version, the Tenth Doctor stayed with Mickey for a week while the TARDIS drifted with Rose on board. Both versions are by Gareth Roberts (The Unicorn and the Wasp). Catch Doctor Who on BBC One or the simulcast on the BBC HD channel (Freesat 108, Freeview 50, Sky 143 and Virgin 108) on Saturday, 12th June at 6.45pm  | ||
