This is one of the best episodes of Doctor Who ever made. The story is clever and I like that the Doctor and Martha only play a small part in it. I've always though that Sally Sparrow would have made a great companion.

@BritanyBinges Год назад

I completely agree with everything you said. :) It takes a special character (an actor/actress) to be able to come into a show like this and be the focus of the episode and actually pull it off.

@murdomaclachlan Год назад

I've heard it that Carey Mulligan was actually asked if she wanted to be a companion but declined the offer. Bit of a shame, I think, Sally Sparrow's one of my favourite one-off characters.

@lesterbottomley7641 Год назад

Bit of trivia for you. Moffat didn't intend for this to be a Doctor Who episode. It was a feature film he was writing. Had it pegged as his Hollywood breakthrough. Then he was getting close to a deadline with still no idea for the episode so he repurposed it. So glad he did. The Whoniverse is so much richer with the angels in it.

@robvanriot Год назад

Another bit of trivia for you - none of that's true. It's an extension of a short story he wrote for the 2005 Doctor Who annual.

@lesterbottomley7641 Год назад

@@robvanriot while I haven't been able find an interview backing up what I saw in a clip about the angels ages ago (where I got this) I have found the short story you talk about. That story is nothing to do with the angels. At all. It's a conversation over time where the ninth Doctor is split from the TARDIS by twenty years and employs a 12 year old Sally Sparrow 's help in getting the TARDIS back to him. It's not that element I was talking about, but rather the angels as a concept so no need to get snarky.

@Vaillle Год назад

A subtle production decision that makes takes this episode over the top for me, is that the angels can’t move even when it’s only US as the viewer seeing them. It’s as if they know that even beings from an alternate reality are looking in on them. Having them freeze even when the viewer is seeing them makes us an active participant in the story and it takes the fear factor up a thousand percent.

@WolfHreda 9 месяцев назад

And then Moffat went and ruined it in series 5. Because as brilliant as he can be, he's also an idiot.

@craigoconnor6662 Год назад

The angel threw the rock, If they had knocked her out, they would've gotten her easily.

@10thdoctor15 Год назад

The timeline is that this episode is set in 2007 - the Doctor says it is 38 years after 1969 - except for the last scene, which is a year later. Martha meets the Doctor in 2008 (because Rose missed a year in Series 1). So the last scene fits nicely in 2008. It has to be after The Lazarus Experiment and before Utopia.

@KatieRuby Год назад

I like the idea that the angels don't move in the episode when we (the audience) are looking at them. Like when Sally took the key, realistically she wasnt looking at them so they should have got her but because we were looking, they didnt move.

The first episode I ever saw, I immediately feel in love with the show! Here's one more timey-wimey paradox for you: Since the later episodes in Series 5 establish that, "The image of an Angel becomes an Angel," it's possible that the Weeping Angels in this story were born from the photos of themselves which Sally gave the Doctor. They may not have even existed to send the Doctor back in time if the Doctor and Sally had not run into each other at the end!

The only explanation I can think of for The Doctor's warning to Sally to duck at the beginning is if she wrote a detailed narrative of the whole thing, and included that with the paperwork she gives to the Doctor in the end. He then takes it as an instruction (Wibbly-wobbly, Timey-wimey rules, lol), goes to the house and writes it on the wall for her to find. Best way to think of time-travel: Don't assume a sequence of events has to happen in linear order. What we think of as the later-event(s) can happen first to the person jumping around in time.

It's a time travel episode without a time traveling Doctor. It's fun exercise of nonlinear causality. There is no episode showing what they fight at the end. Elsewhere in the show we see the Tardis disappear for a moment but when it comes back, it's been hours, days, even years for the Doctor. It might be we only watch minuscule part of the Doctor's adventures. The same easter egg on DVDs of different movies. The same clip unrelated to the movie on different movies would intrigue youtube commentators.

While I do think Blink is an INCREDIBLE episode, I definitely wouldn't recommend it as the only/first one to watch if you wanted to get an idea of what the show is since the Doctor is barely in it. I actually think you might be spot-on with The Girl in the Fireplace. It has a little bit of everything... the Doctor interacting with companions, a spaceship, a historical setting, creepy alien adversaries, the doctor being goofy, intense, romantic, and sad, great writing, great costumes, great music, elicits so many different emotions from the viewer, etc.

As kids we used to throw rocks at the houses to break the windows.So it could just be a passing child that threw the rock. It doesn't help the story if we know who threw it.

Don't worry about your brain breaking, it is very brain-breaking stuff. "Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey" isn't complicated though, it's basically a way to hand-wave away overthinking of time travel paradoxes hahaha. And the bow and arrow is easy to understand - we just have to realise that we as the audience don't get to see all of the adventures the characters have. Just know that they spend more time together than we actually see, but that anything plot-relevant would be in an actual episode of course, so we're not really missing much.

This is the best episode of Tennants possibly the whole of Dr Who.

The Easter egg was on all 17 DVDs. Different movies.

@BritanyBinges Год назад

Right, I meant was what the Doctor recorded the same video. So, I was curious at the time if there were differences in the easter eggs. But, it's clear they were all the exact same easter egg.

I wonder what would happen if you grabbed onto an angel and then blinked. Would it be forced to stay still because you can perceive it, or would it kill you because you're touching it and it's able to consume your time energy?

It’s funny that their initial meeting was a lot more embarrassing after I learned the difference between the American and British definitions of “pants!” 😳

This is an incredible episode, more so when you consider it's Doctor and Martha light. Sally really sells this episode and Lawrence as well. Considering we only see Billy for a short time, his story and connection with Sally feels authentic and you feel for him. It's (one of) the things that confuses me. Why can't the Doctor go back in time to find those people who've been taken. But then I suppose the events we see wouldn't happen as intended for the Doctor to get the Tardis back? I dunno, it makes my head hurt.

i think the grandson chucked the rock to get sally's attention so she would come to the door

@ronanmates7812 Год назад

I absolutely love this episode, been waiting for you to get to it, enjoy the new nightmares!

@obiwankenobi687 Год назад

I think the Angel threw the rock to incapacitate her, to make it easy to get her without being seen. I just don’t know how the Doctor knew she needed to duck. Also. Throughout this whole episode we don’t actually tell Larry what happened to his sister, he just doesn’t get told at all that she’s dead. Even in the time jump forward at the end we don’t really explore any of that, how he’s feeling etc.

I always assumed the binder had the full story in it so he knew what he needed to do

This episode was terrifying when I was 8. But since being desensitised to SCP-173 (which was inspired by the Weeping Angels) it’s not ad bad now

@10thdoctor15 Год назад

It would seem that the angel threw it (whatever it was), and that if it hit her, she would have been sent back in time. Obviously, they took pictures of the wall and gave them to the Doctor, so he knew what to write, and of course it's a paradox.

i love this episode one of my fav ones. i was so looking forward to you reacting to this

@lesterbottomley7641 Год назад

Been looking forward to this one. Blew me away when I first saw it and continues to do soon each rewatch. Clever, scary, intense and just an all round fantastic ride. Although I do have one issue with the blinking thing. What's wrong with winking alternate eyes? Sally Sparrow, along with Madame de Pompidor, are definitely the companions who got away. Although Carey Mulligan hasn't done too bad for herself since. Fantastic actor.

I'm glad you enjoyed this. The Angels are my joint favourite enemy of the Doctor, along with Daleks.

@BritanyBinges 10 месяцев назад

I find the Weeping Angels more terrifying, but I do prefer them over the Daleks.

As someone who lives near Cardiff anytime I went into the city centre I'd see the EXACT statues that are shown at the end of the episode. As a child I knew it wasn't real but I would still not blink until I had passed them, JUST IN CASE, it was real haha.

@BritanyBinges 6 месяцев назад

HAHA! I don't blame. I would've done same thing as a kid. In fact, I used to hold my breath when passing by cemeteries as a child because I heard it was bad luck not to. So, at least you had an actual episode that caused your behavior and not some random old wives' tale. lol

@TheLukecottle 6 месяцев назад

@BritanyBinges haha, Doctor who: terrorising children since 1963 😉😂 it was good fun. Oh really? That's not something I've heard before. Very interesting. But glad to know I wasn't the only gullible person believing things haha. Btw, I just wanna say recently discovered your channel, and I adore it so much. You are definitely in my top 5 reactor channels, and I watch many 😂 Plus, it's nice to see a non-welsh person react to doctor who and comment on the buildings, landscape or streets because most of them are real streets in Swansea, Cardiff, or other places in Wales (sometimes Bristol also). So I appreciate the compliments of my gorgeous home 🥰
