You don’t remember the end of Pyramids of Mars very well then, Dave. There was no exile. Freed of the captivity imposed on him by Horus, Osiris headed for Earth down his time-space tunnel to destroy but unfortunately for him, his travel time was limited to light speed which gave the Doctor a two minute window to move the end of the corridor. By moving it tens of thousands of years into the future, he made Sutekh live out his full 7,000 years lifespan in transit. Sutekh DIES at the end of the episode. The Osirans were a powerful alien race. The ancient Egyptians regarded them as gods - but they were not gods. Then. Therefore, I’m waiting to see what RTD does with the concept. -- “Most of the Universe is knackered, babes.” - The Doctor
