Radio Times is the BBC 's weekly Television and Radio programme [4] Davies has stated that the character was always going to be a "one-off" even before Minogue was cast and that Astrid would demonstrate "a whole new take – again – on what a companion can be". [1] The fact that Astrid is an anagram of TARDIS and that Peth is Welsh for part, was widely commented on before the episode's broadcast. An anagram ( Greek anagramma 'letters written anew' passive participle of ana- 'again' + gramma 'letter' is a type of Word play The TARDIS ( T ime A nd R elative D imension(s I n S pace is a time machine and Spacecraft in the Welsh ( cy Cymraeg or cy y Gymraeg, kəmˈrɑːɨɡ and {{IPA|[ə ɡəmˈrɑːɨɡ]}}, is a member of the Brythonic branch of Celtic [5][6][7] The episode revealed that information to be a red herring.

Events 324 - Battle of Adrianople Constantine I defeats Licinius, who flees to Byzantium. Year 2007 ( MMVII) was a Common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar in the 21st century. The official announcement followed rumours regarding Minogue's casting having already circulated in the press, although the episode's writer Russell T. Davies had denied these rumours in in-house BBC publication Ariel in an attempt to keep the news secret for longer. Ariel is the in-house Magazine / Newspaper of the BBC, published weekly on Tuesdays and named after the statue of Shakespeare 's Furthermore, Minogue herself had confirmed that she would be appearing in the episode in InStyle magazine, whilst the London paper Standard Lite published a photograph of Minogue's creative director Will Baker carrying a 'to do list' with a note about a Doctor Who script on it, thus indicating that Minogue would be in the episode. London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom. London Lite is the trading name of a British free newspaper, published by Associated Newspapers (part of Daily Mail and General Trust Minogue had also been sighted filming for Doctor Who by members of the public before the official announcement of her casting. [9][5][10] Baker, a long-term Doctor Who fan, was largely responsible for Minogue's casting by setting up a meeting between her, Davies and Julie Gardner. Julie Gardner (born June 1969 is a Welsh Television producer who is currently both Controller of Drama Commissioning at BBC Television and Head [5][11] Davies has claimed that Minogue was keen to appear on Doctor Who to relaunch her acting career. [12][13]

Publicity

Minogue posed with a Dalek in an exclusive photo shoot for Doctor Who Magazine[11][14] promoting "Voyage of the Damned". A Dalek (, ˈdɑːlεk is a member of a Fictional extraterrestrial race of Mutants from the British science fiction television A photo shoot is generally used in the Fashion industry whereby a model poses for a Photographer at a studio where multiple photos are taken to find the Doctor Who Magazine (abbreviated as DWM) is a Magazine devoted to the long-running British Science fiction television The shoot paid homage to actress Katy Manning's (who portrayed Jo Grant) famous nude photo shoot with a Dalek.

David Tennant (born David John McDonald; 18 April 1971 is a Scottish Actor. Events 1095 - Pope Urban II declares the First Crusade at the Council of Clermont Year 2007 ( MMVII) was a Common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar in the 21st century. [15] Lengthier discussion about her involvement in "Voyage of the Damned" was included in the extended repeat of X-Amining Kylie, entitled Re-X-Amining Kylie, broadcast on Boxing Day 2007. Boxing Day is a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, as well as many other members of the Commonwealth [16] It was leaked to The Sun and other media outlets correctly that Astrid would kiss the Doctor[6][17][18] and would exit by "spinning into space"[6] before the episode's broadcast. The Sun is a Tabloid daily newspaper published in the United Kingdom and Ireland with the highest circulation of any daily English-language

Reception

The episode was seen by 12. 2 million viewers, with 13. 8 million watching at its peak, according to overnight ratings, when it was first broadcast on Christmas Day on BBC One. [19] The ratings success of "Voyage of the Damned" has been partially and fully attributed to Minogue's casting in the role of Astrid. [14][20][21][22][23] Younger viewers who were fans of pop star Kylie were left distraught by Astrid's death and had to be convinced that Kylie was not dead in real life. A celebrity is a widely-recognized or famous person who commands a high degree of public and media attention [14][20][24]

Although she received some positive reviews[25][26] and it has been asserted that her appearance in the episode has helped her make "a full return to the limelight",[27] Minogue's appearance was not universally praised. Gareth McLean, a TV writer for The Guardian, described Minogue as "not that good. The Guardian (until 1959 The Manchester Guardian) is a British Newspaper owned by the Guardian Media Group. . . she's blank and insipid". McLean wrote:

There's no chemistry between Astrid and the Doctor, she delivers her lines with a real lack of conviction and thus we never really believe in Astrid as a character. Where Catherine Tate's Donna in last year's special was overbearing, Kylie Minogue's Astrid is hardly there at all. Catherine Tate (born Catherine Ford 12 May 1968) is an English comedienne and Actress. Donna Noble is a fictional character played by Catherine Tate in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who "The Runaway Bride" is a special episode of the long running British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, starring It does make you wonder why casting Kylie was regarded as a coup. She's a pop star of course she's going to say yes to being beamed into millions of homes in the run-up to Christmas. She's got a duff album to sell. X is a 2007 Album by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue. In truth, Kylie should be grateful to [Doctor Who]. [7]

David Belcher of The Herald wrote that Minogue looked too old to play a waitress. The Herald is a national Broadsheet newspaper published Monday to Saturday in Glasgow, Scotland. [28] Sam Wollaston of The Guardian claimed Kylie's performance was "disappointing" and did not live up to those of Freema Agyeman or Billie Piper in Doctor Who. Billie Paul Piper (born Lianne Paul Piper on 22 September 1982 is an English actress and pop Singer. [29] Jim Shelley of The Mirror stated that Minogue did not "look vivacious enough to be worth all the fuss". The Daily Mirror, often referred to simply as The Mirror, is a British Tabloid daily Newspaper founded in 1903 [30] Conversely, Paddy Shennan of the Liverpool Echo accused the makers of cynically including shots of Minogue's cleavage and legs. The Liverpool Echo is a newspaper published by Trinity Mirror on Merseyside in England. [31] Tim Teeman of the Times Online described Astrid as "gutsy", but commented on Minogue's "older" appearance and likened her "breathy delivery" to her performance as Charlene Mitchell in Neighbours. The Times is a daily national Newspaper published in the United Kingdom since 1785 when it was known as The Daily Universal Register. Charlene Edna Robinson (née Mitchell) was a Fictional character in the Australian Soap opera Neighbours played by Neighbours is a long-running multiple Logie Award -winning Australian Soap opera, which first aired in March 1985 [32]

Billie Piper, who portrayed former companion Rose Tyler, commented that it was a "great idea" to cast Minogue, and was disappointed to miss meeting and befriending her on the set of Doctor Who as Tennant had done. Rose Marion Tyler is a fictional character played by Billie Piper in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who [33][34] The Sun's selection of top TV babes of 2007 included Minogue as Astrid Peth as well as Agyeman for her Martha Jones Doctor Who role and Piper for her role as Belle de Jour in Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Belle de Jour is promoted as the Nom de plume of a former London Call girl. Secret Diary of a Call Girl is a British television Drama starring Billie Piper as Belle, a high-class London-based Call girl [35] In reference to Minogue's appearance in "Voyage of the Damned", actor John Barrowman, who portrays companion Captain Jack Harkness, suggested he would love for Kylie's sister, Dannii to appear in Doctor Who spin-off series Torchwood. John Scot Barrowman (b 11 March 1967 is a Scottish Actor, musical performer, Dancer, Singer and Television presenter Captain Jack Harkness Danielle Jane Minogue (born 20 October 1971 known as Dannii, is an Australian singer songwriter Television personality and occasional actress, Torchwood is a British science fiction Drama Television programme, created by Russell T Davies and starring John Barrowman [36]

Possible return

Despite Davies stating that the companion in "Voyage of the Damned" was "always going to [be] a one-off. . . little knowing that it would be Kylie Minogue",[1] he has since stated that he would cast Minogue again "like that". [12] The Daily Express has quoted Minogue as saying there has been talk that her character could be reintroduced at a later date. The Daily Express is a conservative Middle-market British Tabloid Newspaper. [5] Davies refused to comment when Doctor Who Magazine asked him about the rumours regarding Minogue's return to Doctor Who. [11]
