You may be looking for the ability to wink.

Wink was the third and final story in the Out of Time series, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Lisa McMullin and featured David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor.

Publisher's summary

When the Sixth Doctor goes sight-seeing on Lucidus Silvara, he finds himself in a place where nothing is visible at all...only all-encompassing light! The Tenth Doctor is drawn in by a temporal anomaly, and the two Doctors meet a species with no sense of sight, living in a city surrounded by Weeping Angels.

To save a civilisation, the Doctors must keep their eyes on the Angels. Don’t blink. Don’t even wink...

Plot

to be added

Cast

Worldbuilding

  • When the Doctors are first confronted by the Weeping Angels, the Sixth Doctor says: "Angel to the left of us, angel to the right", to which the Tenth Doctor replies: "Here I am, stuck in the middle with you", referencing the song "Stuck In the Middle With You" by Stealers Wheel.

Notes

Alternate cover
  • This story was recorded remotely on 8 July 2020.
  • This story was released on Colin Baker's birthday.

Continuity

  • The Sixth Doctor states that his future self's TARDIS is "grubby". The Eleventh Doctor would similarly refer to it as "[the Tenth Doctor's] grunge phase" during their meeting, (TV: The Day of the Doctor) while Wilfred Mott would claim that he thought the TARDIS “would be cleaner”. (TV: The End of Time)
  • The two Doctors encounter baby Weeping Angels that resemble cherubs. Rory Williams encountered similar in a basement in New York City. (TV: The Angels Take Manhattan)
  • The Fifth Doctor previously encountered the Weeping Angels. When the Tenth Doctor begins to lecture the Sixth Doctor on how to deal with Weeping Angels, the Sixth Doctor doesn't take it kindly. (AUDIO: Fallen Angels)
  • The Tenth Doctor suggests that the Sixth Doctor try a blue variation of his multicoloured coat. (WC: Real Time)
  • The Sixth Doctor seems to believe that his tenth incarnation has a happy future, insinuating that his does not. The Sixth Doctor's life was always overshadowed by the ever-present threat of the Valeyard, whom he met numerous times. (TV: The Ultimate Foe, AUDIO: Stage Fright et al)
  • Initially six baby angels are born but a seventh one appears, referring to the number of regenerations between the Sixth and Tenth Doctor including the regeneration after the Dalek extermination in the 21st century Dalek invasion. (TV: The Stolen Earth)
