Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the disc of the original DVD release of Series 3 with "Blink" in it (disc 4) there is an Easter Egg on page 2 of scene selection of "Blink". It has the Doctor's Easter egg, unedited. To access it, you have to highlight "Blink" in the page and select it. Unlike other bonus scenes and deleted footage, the Easter egg remains "filmized" rather than being rendered on video, in keeping with it supposedly having been filmed in 1969.
- GoofsIn the entire episode the weeping angels have grey eyes. Just before Sally gets out of the circle, you can see the actual eyes of the actor who plays a weeping angel.
- Quotes
The Doctor: People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff.

Featured review
The show peaks with this masterpiece.
There aren't many superlatives I can use, that haven't been mentioned before, but this episode, even now, is still one of the high points in the show's history, classic or new.
The series so far, has actually been very strong on the whole, the three weaker stories clumped together, Daleks and Lazarus, have been the only misfits in what's been a clever, bold and imaginative series. With Human Nature and The Family of Blood the series had again hit the very highest form, and Blink proves to be even better, a masterpiece.
Blink made such an impact, I can remember actually watching it, what I had for food and drink, where I sat, it was that memorable.
It's creepy, it's funny, it's totally and insanely imaginative. I love the characters, I love the creation of the Weeping Angels, but....the wasted opportunity of not bringing back Sally Sparrow remains my only gripe, but Who knows, maybe one day we'll see a return.
Two of my favourite episodes of all time are two Doctor light episodes, this number 1, and number 2 turn left. They work now and then.
10/10 Perfection!!!
I walk past some of the statues used every day, and I STILL LOOK AND WONDER!!!!
