    My favorite part of this is at the end: when Sally tells the Doctor that one day he will be stuck in 1969, he just raises his eyebrows and nods, like he's thinking, "Sounds like something I'd do".

    Sally Sparrow was going to be the next companion after Martha - but Carey Mulligan was offered bigger roles based off of how fantastic she was in this episode, and we got the return of Donna Noble instead. I wish we could have had her as a companion, but I think everything worked out well.

    Best episode in Doctor Who history. So clever. Suspenseful. Fun. Cary Mulligan played Sally. She was perfect. The fact she has been nominated for 2 Oscars was inevitable after seeing her in this show. She stole the show....... Actually made you think......... Doctor Who?..............

  • @asterix7842
    @asterix7842 4 місяці тому +15

    One of the most popular episodes, and the Doctor is barely even in it.
    In my opinion, the Weeping Angels are scarier than Daleks, Cyber Men, or any other monster/villain he's faced.

The fear is simple but so effective... Growing up, there was 2 creatures in sci-fi show that terrified me : the Replicator from Stargate SG1 and the Weeping Angel from Doctor Who.

    Part of the contract that the main actors sign gives them one episode per season where they get to take time off.

    • @theadamabrams
      @theadamabrams 4 місяці тому

      Steven Moffat wrote this episode, and in general he does a lot more timey-wimey stuff than Russell T. Davies. To be fair, S3 had "Harold Saxon" mentioned several times before his origin was explained via time travel in the finale, and S4 has the Ood predicting the Doctor-Donna and he heartbeat and some stuff like that.Still, it's nothing compared to what S5-7 do with time. (Travis is already on S7 on Patreon now, so this isn't spoiling anything for him.)

    Something I found out a few days ago! The term "Easter Egg" came about through The Rocky Horror Picture Show (which I did for years and never knew this!), because it was Easter when they were filming the show. So the cast and crew had an Easter egg hunt, but not all the eggs were found, so some were left when they filmed the final cut. Apparently there are three actual eggs in the final film. Pretty cool, huh? 💙

    This is by far one of my favourite Doctor Who episodes to this day.
    Something else you might want to know: There's a Doctor Who mobile game on the app store called "The Lonely Assassins". It acts as a direct sequel to "Blink" and it features another fan favourite character that you'll meet later down the line (in series 7 to be exact). I would highly recommend it. It's very puzzle heavy and there were some moments that took me by surprise (jumpscare-wise). All around one of my favourite Doctor Who games out there.
