It was too damaged and weak to utilise it's power.

So the Weeping Angels can be easily damaged and are defeated by locking your front door? Yeah, that's weak sauce.

And it was chained up - because chains work brilliantly in this series of Doctor Who.

Three stories in about six years doesn't feel like they've been 'hopelessly overused'!

Three stories in five years. :)

You're picking at nits, there.

No I'm not. You still haven't explained why he would walk into a hotel, get in the lift and go to a certain room instead of trying to find his wife. As always, it don't make no bloody sense.

Can they be easilly damaged? Do we know how that was done?

Dalek's breaking chains has nothing to do with this episode or alien.

No one has explained about the statue of liberty thing and the staring and that yet

Right. So they appear once every two series, more or less. Not that much. Third series, fifth, seventh.

Because you can't explain that away, they made a mistake there. Only bit that really bugged me.

If Mike McShane can catch and torture one of them, then a 900 year old super genius from outer space should be able to mash 'em up pretty easily.

You are.

Because he was transported there, I suppose; so he either wanders in the other direction to who knows where, or goes inside. He went inside.Really they should have just had him appear inside, but I suppose it makes it clearer from an audience perspective if we see him stood outside the place we saw the detective enter earlier first. Makes it clear.

Also, how could he find his wife? He's in a different time in a city he doesn't know and has now been split from the only person he does know, River; pretty tricky to know what exactly to do next to find her.

Thankyou the case for the prosecution rests, for my next case I will proving that this series is a shambles.

He should be able to do that to almost anything. Not much of a show then though, more of a torture porn situation.

we are still talking about Dr Who right?

On a visceral level there wws no sense of peril just a dull curiosity at how tue daleks were going to be written out I mean the ponds I mean I can't tell the diference anymore

I felt pretty tense in a lot of scenes; genuine creepy scares throughout. Poor Rory in the basement with the babies; propper unnerving. Very good building of atmosphere; felt genuine worry for Rory, more than Amy, throughout.

Sootyj rates the season

One flew over the daleks nest 2
Jurassic park in space 5
Attack of the pubes 2
Kitchen ornnaments attack newyork 2,5

Rory's acting is genuinely scary
