Kylie Minogue has out-rated the Queen of England and turned Dr. Who back into a ratings winner.
The singer's guest spot on the Doctor Who Christmas Special was watched by 12.2 million people. That was about half the audience watching television in the UK at the time and twice as many who viewed in to watch the Queen's Christmas message.Kylie's addition to Dr. Who gave the show a 3.5 million increase on the previous year's Christmas special.
Kylie out-rated The Queen two to one. The Queen's annual Christmas message was viewed by 6 million.
However, Australia's former soap star was incapable of beating England's super-soap East Enders. East Enders was the highest rating show on Christmas Day. 13.9 million British viewers tuned in for the show.
Kylie will next be seen on British television singing a duet with Paul McCartney on Jools Holland's New Years Eve special.
