Doctor Who The Weeping Angels Collection DVD

The Angels made their debut in 2007’s fan favourite ‘Blink’, terrifying adults and children alike. Carey Mulligan starred in the “Doctor-lite” episode, who is of course now famous for major Hollywood titles, such as 2013’s ‘The Great Gatsby’ and 2015’s ‘Suffragette’. ‘Blink’ was written by current showrunner Steven Moffat, who has since guided his evil creations like Davros with his Daleks.  The Angels went on to star in 2010’s two-parter ‘The Time of Angels’ and ‘Flesh and Stone’. Moffat raised their level of brutality, snapping necks when zapping their victims back in time. This was followed in 2012 by ‘The Angels Take Manhattan’, and the episode delivered on this promise. Not only did they take Manhattan by embodying the iconic Statue of Liberty, but they also took two companions away.

Whilst Doctor Who is famous for its many monsters, few reach iconic status. The Daleks, the Cybermen and the Sontarans are just a few Who monsters with many decades of legacy behind them. But if any monster from new Who would eventually dethrone them, it would certainly be the Angels.

Doctor Who: The Weeping Angels includes episodes featuring Doctor’s Ten (David Tennant), Eleven (Matt Smith) and Twelve (Peter Capaldi).
