    1:30 you can actually see Jodie blink. I'm not sure if this was intentional or if they just decided to use this take, but I think it's kind of a nice hint that something is wrong here before she tries to run off and isn't immediately caught by them.

Could've just done what the daleks did, kidnap the companions and ASK her to go, the doctot would never turn that down and it'd free up so much time for the 80 other plots they have going on at the same time with none of them having any time to breath or build up suspense at all because of all the bloat... jfc this was the worst season yet...

    I haven't been keeping up with Dr.Who after her first season (wasn't that invested unfortunately), but I have to say what a completely missed opportunity for a regeneration. Imagine how much more crazy and cool it would have been for this to have been the finale of her run, only for her regeneration energy to break off the Angel influence and you see the next face of The Doctor appear.
    Maybe I'm wrong and nobody else agrees with me, but in my eyes I felt like that would have been pretty neat to see.

    My one gripe about mass gatherings of angels like this is that by their own design and nature, mass groupings like this should make them very vulnerable since they can stun lock each other by looking at each other, and clearly some of them here were not covering their faces. I get that it's more cinematic, but realistically, it's a terrible idea for the angels to not cover their faces.

    As with far too much during the Chibnall era this was a striking, dramatic moment... that ultimately resulted in a 'meh' outcome. It's like he and his writers thought of vignettes or specific scenes they wanted to do and then just cobbled together a 'story' around those isolated pieces. As a result every episode had some high points while overall lacking cohesiveness or consistency. This truly was a very intriguing action - turning The Doctor into a Weeping Angel; it's unfortunate that the concept was not then effectively built upon.

Hope the Doctor is not hostile as a weeping angel by with a simple touch: sending someone back in time, or killing them. Plus, still has the same personality as before.

    So I just started getting into Dr. Who recently.
    I thought the angels didn't exist when observed. But apparently they're still there, but just can't move now.
    There's a difference between "not existing when observed" and "Literally all senses still function, but they just can't move."
    The first one creates, effectively, wild animals who live with a curse. They can never be looked upon or they cease to exist, until unobserved again.
    Can't look at each other, can't be seen by others, nothing.
    This kind of miserable, tortured existence would make a creature feral, angry, hateful, and lash out at anything that's not it's own species.
    But... here they're like... What? Making plans? Plotting?
    I like the original angels concept.
    Eldritch beings with a truly endless capacity for hate, cruelty, and violence. Simple, hateful things that will hunt you down and kill you. Not sure of all the context but, this is my least favorite depiction of the weeping lads.

      If the player still isn’t working and you have a VPN, you can currently watch the entire season and the recent special on ABC iview for free in Australia.
