Doctor Who
Warning : Spoiler ahead forDoctor Whoseason 15 , instalment 2 , " Lux . “Doctor Whoseason 15 , sequence 2 , " Lux , " is an installment of the show unlike any I have ever run into , but it ’s in reality a much older episode that " Lux " solidifies as the long - bleed sci - fi ’s o.k. effort . Ncuti Gatwa ’s Fifteenth Doctor ’s encounter withMr . Ring - a - dent ( Alan Cumming)inDoctor Whoseason 15 ’s second instalment becomes incredibly self - awarefor one shot in special , and it settle the long - running debate about which is thegreatestDoctor Whostory of all time .
Mr. Ring - a - Ding turns out to be " Lux , " the God of Light inDoctor Who ’s Pantheon . Fifteen and Belinda Chandra ( Varada Sethu ) being trap in Lux ’s realm leads to some very trippy confrontation , and perhaps the trippiest of all is their conversation with " real - world"Doctor Whofans . The meta mo show the Doctor and Belinda step out of a television set and into a realism where the Time Lord ’s adventures are nothing more than a serial publication of sci - fi story . The sports fan in head are more than well-chosen to announce which of the Doctor ’s exploits is the best .
Lux’s Doctor Who Fans Are Unanimous That “Blink” Is The Best Episode
Steven Moffat’s 2007 Doctor-lite episode has been awarded the crown
When Fifteen questions theDoctor Whoviewers in " Lux " about which adventure they all care the most , they all share the sentiment that the only acceptable answer isDoctor Whoseason 3 , instalment 10 , " Blink . " The Weeping Angels ' launching first aired in 2007 duringDavid Tennant ’s clip as the Tenth Doctor . “Blink " has systematically remained part of the conversation regarding the bestDoctor Whoepisodesand showrunner Russell T. Davies has now essentially canonise that it sits atop the list .
Russell T Davies ' homecoming as Doctor Who showrunner has brought with it an intriguing element , break the fourth paries on a semi - even groundwork .
Davies has n’t just plucked " Blink " out of sparse gentle wind when writing this " Lux " aspect . I ’ve been in many discussion with otherDoctor Whofans about which episode is best , and " Blink " is the only installment that consistently come up in every version of the conversation I have . It also has a thoroughly telling grudge of 9.8/10 onIMDb , which is an average of over 25,000 people rating the instalment . That does n’t just make it the highest - rat sequence of the forward-looking era , but alsoDoctor Who ’s original runfrom 1963 to 1989 .
Why “Blink” Is Such A Great Doctor Who Episode
Moffat’s original concept and terrifying monsters have made “Blink” tough to beat
There are n’t many otherDoctor Whoepisodes like " Blink , " so it stands apart from its competitors , at least in part , for that very reason . The Weeping Angels have becomeDoctor Whomainstayssince appearing in " Blink , " and they ’re arguably the only villain that have action that exploit since the Daleks , the Cyberman , and thevarious iteration of the Master . The Angels are built on a simple-minded but well - executed concept , and they manage to be really terrorize in a path that transcends the show ’s kinsfolk - friendly data format .
All elements of " Blink " stand out on their own , and combine to make a stark example of the paragon thatDoctor Whois capable of achieve .
" Blink " is also the first time the Doctor offers the now - immortalized " Timey - wimey " explanation . Ten ’s summary of the events at the core of " Blink " is perfectly return . It ’s tough to accurately describe which episodes come into the " Timey - wimey " class , but " Blink " definitely belongs there . The idea of the Doctor have a two - way communication with present - day Earth despite his terminal of the exchange being pre - recorded is an incredible crook . All elements of " Blink " stand out on their own , and meld to make a perfect example of the perfection thatDoctor Whois capable of attain .

The Awkward Truth About “Blink” Being Doctor Who’s Best Episode
The Tenth Doctor’s screen time in “Blink” is minimal
As well as being the show ’s best oblation , " Blink " is also one ofDoctor Who ’s Doctor - lite episode . This is a production technique used to allay the show ’s filming schedule . The effect here is that Tennant ’s Doctor barely feature . or else , he has only a fistful of picture , as the doer was busy filming another season 3 episode . Instead , the " Blink " cast is led by Carey Mulligan as Sally Sparrow . Therefore , it ’s a little uncomfortable to include that aDoctor Whoscript purposely crafted to hide the meddlesome schedule of the show ’s atomic number 82 histrion ultimately result in such an incredible installment .
The Weeping Angels are arguably the best monsters introduced in the forward-looking Doctor Who era . Here are all the installment you should n’t winkle in .
Of course , the Doctor is still demand for " Blink " to work . He may have an incredibly reduced and unorthodox role , but the sequence is still highly recognizable as aDoctor Whostory . Doctor - lite sequence are n’t always undertake to be a success , but they often tolerate out for how originative the writers postulate to get in the absence seizure of the show ’s biggest headliner . For example , Doctor Who ’s season 14 , episode 4 , " 73 Yards , " placed Millie Gibson ’s Ruby Sunday in the spotlight , but it surprisingly became one of the run ’s best episodes - despite Gatwa ’s limited availability .
