Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for September 29, 2016

“weeping angel”We Whovians already knew that, and for the rest, the label isn’t going to help.

“Listen, your life could depend on this: Don’t blink.  Don’t even blink.  Blink and you’re dead.  They are fast.  Faster than you can believe.  Don’t turn your back.  Don’t look away.  And DON’T BLINK.  Good Luck.”

“that which holds the image of an angel becomes itself an angel”

I’ll bet it can’t withstand a Hammy Hug.

Hummmmmmmmmmmmmm

They’ll be fine. Hammy’s too wired to blink, and Verne has a nictitating membrane.

Wow. Now if they only meet up with Tom Baker…..

Favorite episode!

There seem to be a lot more Whovians here than I would have guessed.

“The Angels killed me, Doctor. I died lone and scared, they wanted me to tell you that” I still get the creeps thinking about that

WHOA!! Lewis and Fry — goin’ right for the good stuff!

RUN!!!!! Backwards!!

Actually, Dr Who for 50+ years has consistently been one of the best entertainment shows on TV. Harlen Ellison, who was one of the staff for years, once said that the show was the only “pure SF” on TV.

Carey Mulligan and Kylie Minogue were the two guest stars I missed the most when they were gone.

The episode that made me fear statues, and my cat!

The killing weeping angels were scary. The “transport you back in the time stream” weeping angels didn’t make any sense.

In my opinion, it takes a bit of cogitating to work out the Weeping Angels, but once you did, they are one of the most original Doctor Who baddies to come down the pike. Far more subtle than pepperpots with plungers or clanking metal men.

“Blink” won a Hugo for Best Dramatic Presentation, well-deserved. Very clever episode.

Facepalming angel, more like.

The circle thingys (panel 1)!

Terrific Dr Who arc!

I don’t recall the Doctor ever whining about the plunger thing?

Backpedal… NOW!!!
