The results of the 2006 Hugo Awards, a ceremony which celebrate achievements in science-fiction, were announced Saturday night. Among the winners was a two-part installment of the Doctor Who relaunch for Dramatic Presentation: Short Form, entitled The Empty Child and The Docotr Dances. Among the competition for the award were two other episodes from the same season and one episode of Battlestar Galactica, so I guess the odds were in Doctor Who’s favour.

If you’re wondering why I’m even mentioning this, as I’ve said in the past I believe Doctor Who is by far the scariest television series ever broadcast. And the two episodes which won the competition are without a doubt the most frightening thing I have witnessed on the small screen.

Congratulations to the Doctor Who team for the well-deserved win. I’m looking forward to season 2.
