Like the preceding Human Nature/The Family of Blood two parter written by Paul Cornell, Blink written by Steven Moffat was based on the writer's previously published Doctor Who work.
Like many others I read the short story which formed the basis of this episode, What I did on my Christmas Holidays by Sally Sparrow from the 2006 Annual and I loved it.
Was quite surprise when I found out that it became Blink on the TV series.
It is an excellent adaptation of the story. Like season 32's Love and Monsters the Doctor only has a limited presence in it and Blink is a way better episode than that earlier episode. The suspense was gripping, the Weeping Angels very scary and it was funny when Larry was shocked that Sally only had 17 DVDs!
