After three weeks of variousups and downs , Doctor Who : Flux reaches the second one-half of itstruncated runthis hebdomad with the rejoinder of some old foes . “ settlement of the Angels ” escort the Doctor and her suite hop over to the county of Devon in November 1967 to inquire a series of disappearances that may be from the granitic men of thoseWeeping Angels .
They ’ve become a powerful set of recurring baddies since 2007 ’s iconic “ Blink , ” and have had some interesting turns , such as when one briefly became the Statue of Liberty . In font you have n’t kept up with the show and necessitate a refresher ( or just need to rewatch some of their scary moment , which is totally valid ) , BBC ’s put out a video forwards of tomorrow ’s episode to sate your desires . After 14 days , it ’s still kind of incredible that then - showrunner Russell T. Davies and writer Steven Moffat managed to make something moderately shivery out of something generally terrene as a statue . And watching their heads sloooowly turn towards Amy in the two - parter “ Time of Angels / Flesh and Stone ” brought them to an “ oh , shit ” level of terrifying .
The get-up-and-go vampire made a brief coming into court in Flux ’s premiere and service as the ominous closer for last week ’s episode , but “ Village ” is a bit of a atavist to their entry in that it seems to be a one - off rather than continuing the news report ’s on-going story . Is a standalone tale what a six - episode season needs ? Does n’t seem like it , but then , showrunner Chris Chibnall has antecedently said that these eldritch excursus are eventuallygoing to leadsomewhere . So perchance here , we ’ll get a stronger melodic theme of what exactly that mean .
