Question
Thoroughly enjoyed reading your Pocket Essentials Doctor Who Episode Guide. Will there be an updated version released soon as my copy ends with 'The Runaway Bride'? And i wanted to know what the ratings were for 'Evil Of The Daleks' as this has been omitted from my copy. Lastly, a suggestion; i would love to see a future volume that not only tells us the ratings for each story but which also indicates what number in the ratings the story or episode actually reached. Might be particularly interesting given that the programme recently achieved its first ever 'number one'!

Answer
Dear Ian,

Thankyou very much for your question, and for your perceptive comments about my book. I will make sure that the 'Evil' rating goes into any future edition. (It's 6.43m by the way!) As to chart position, I could try and sneak that in too.

I hope there will be a new edition - I ask my publishers about it on a fairly regular basis! Certainly there's lots more that could go in now. But it's all a question of sales, whether they have sold out all the old editions, so when and until that happens, I really can't give you a definite answer.

By all means email me at mark.campbell10@virgin.net in a few months time to see if the situation has changed.

Thanks again for your kind comments.

Best wishes,

Mark
