The most interesting thing about this great episode is that it is a "Doctor Lite" episode, one in which he is rarely seen. And it is a "Companion Lite" episode as well, a truly rare combination. But the episode shines due to the excellent script, plus a great group of guest actors.

To answer a speculation you make in the video, there are absolutely tshirts that read "The Angels Have The Phone Box ". This is one of my favorite episodes to watch people react to. I must say, most people jump and scream a lot when seeing this for the first time. You mostly look intrigued, which is much the same way I reacted to it originally, so congrats on having great self control. Don't worry, I'm sure you're going to enjoy the finale. This is a very strong season, and it's going to go out with a bang.

Hey Jay, yes, agreed: "Blink" is such a fantastic episode. Easily one of the most memorable! Carey Mulligan as Sally Sparrow absolutely carries and crushes it (how has she still not received an Academy Award?!). But among Doctor Who episodes and even the 10th Doctor's, it's one of the coolest, wildest & most mind bending trips. Although, there's still a whole lot of amazing stuff ahead for David Tennant's Doctor. Happy to see that you're enjoying Doctor Who, it's a great show. ~ k

The first Doctor Who shirt I ever got was the quote about wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. And the only time I dressed up for Halloween was for my daughter’s first Halloween, and I made myself into a weeping angel, or at least a representative of it. The weeping angels are the creepiest doctor who villain for me, primarily because they show pics of actual angel statues in the real world.

@smbsuperfan271 Жыл бұрын
Fun Fact: Allegedly the idea for this episode came when Moffat was walking home and took a detour through a graveyard, and off in a corner he saw an Ange statue that was roped off. When he walked back through a week later, the statue was gone and when he asked the maintenance staff they said there was no record of an angel statue. It's far more likely that he just read & recreated SCP-173, but it's fun to think about.

Blink is a wonderful episode, one of the best of new Who, self contained, full of real chills, ups and down, terrible fates for people and crazy things happening and makes you scared of statues in graveyards for years to come. plus its nice to see the Doctors adventure from a normal persons linear perspective of time - from the doctors POV he's given the transcript, looses the tardis, finds the guy, asks him to send a message then the Tardis arrives and he's off again

I am jumping around in your Dr. Who reactions. Blink is the episode I think is the best way to introduce someone to Dr. Who. You don't have to know anything about the story arcs, you don't even need to know who The Doctor is. But you get a full sense of what the show is all about and how it feels. I love that the angels can't move when we are seeing them. That way, in a very subtle way, we become part of the plot.

It's consistently voted one of the all-time best episodes ever, which is no mean feat, especially considering that the Doctor hardly appears in it. I think it won several awards. Even people who don't watch Doctor Who know this one. There's a vid on YT about how Steven Moffatt came up with the concept of Weeping Angels, which is very interesting. From here on the series only gets better and better.

When these first came out in the UK the BBC published the DVDs three episodes at a time (with the box set coming once the series/season was over). The Family of Blood two parter and Blink came out on one of those DVDs, and while I'd already paid my license fee, and I had them taped on PVR, I felt obliged to pay the extra for this DVD. Generally series 3 isn't one of my favourites, but as three back to back episodes this is absolutely the high point of all Who, old and new, IMHO. (Which is weird, given the absence of the Doctor in so much of them.)

The brilliance of this episode is that the watchers of this episode are also watching the angels, and the angels aren't moving even when the characters aren't looking because the camera is on them and we are watching them. We count in this episode. This is why the angel didn't immediately touch Cathy even tho she didn't look, because we were looking. The moment the camera moved away from the angels and now no one was watching the angel, it attacked Cathy

This is what RTD used to refer to as a double banking episode, where they shot two episodes at once, one in which the Doctor and/or companion have a small or no role while the focus is on guest characters. You saw this before with "Love and Monsters." This is a rather more successful one.

Steven Moffat has a knack (or weakness) for time-paradox stories, going back to the humorous short 'Curse of Fatal Death' charity Red Nose Day special in 1999 (see kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqHCd6prpKmAl9E but NOT until you have seen the rest of Season 3 because [spoilers]). Some people say that Moffat is sometimes too clever for his own good, but when it works-as in this episode-it's brilliant.
