Series 13 Post Script

Well according to our scores that was the best series of DW yet by a significant margin.

Series avg rating 83.5%

Only 1 dud (Android Invasion), 3 in the 90's and 2 more in the 80's. That 5 classics out of 6.

What's caused it? Is there something in the DW Production office tea?

I think it might be Holmes, Hinchcliffe, Baker, Sladen and Camfield all having a good year.

Is it the peak?  Or a peak?  Will series 14 pip it? or maybe 19?

Some seasons cheat a bit by having 4 stories (s7) instead of 10 (s3)....

Here's a table of this blog's average series ratings so far.

I feel some of these scores are unfairly influenced by things like B&W, differing levels of familiarity, and missing episodes status. But largely it feels real at this stage.

Also the Marathon is half-way through the classic series.
