While the episode was entitled Blink, the operative command was clearly "Don’t blink!" Another superb episode. This series of Doctor Who has had some real crackers in it. While the "weeping angels" were, for me, almost a MacGuffin, there were some fascinating ideas on show. The time-separated conversation, for example, and the sequence at the end when the Doctor clearly doesn’t have a clue who Sally Sparrow is (yet).
And Billy Shipton was terrific.
Nicely directed, too. The shot where Larry Nightingale blinks certainly caused me to cry out involuntarily. Nicely done.
And it looks as though next week’s episode will have the return of Captain Jack and an appearance by Derek Jacobi. I can’t wait.
