Many fans may have been hoping for Sutekh's return when the title of the Series 8 adventure Mummy on the Orient Express was revealed. Indeed, it made sense that the central big bad from The Pyramids of Mars would once again take the limelight and butt heads with the Doctor. Unfortunately, however, this wasn't the case, and Sutekh the Destroyer remains a distant memory, fondly recalled by only the most dedicated of Whovians. A modernised Sutekh would make a striking visual impact on screens in 2015, certainly.
