Banto (Blink)

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Banto was the owner of Banto's DVD store, where Larry Nightingale worked in the 2000s.[nb 1] When Sally Sparrow came in, Banto was watching an episode of the BBC series Gangsters, and complained about how characters on TV never go to the police. This gave Sally the idea to go to the police. (TV: Blink)

Banto later appeared as a contact in Larry Nightingale's mobile phone. (GAME: The Lonely Assassins [+]Loading...["The Lonely Assassins (video game)"])

  1. While Blink itself uncontroversially sets its main setting in 2007 and "twenty minutes to Red Hatching" a year later in 2008—as Kathy Nightingale's letter describes taking "one breath in 2007 and the next in 1920", and the Tenth Doctor's side of his conversation with Sally Sparrow in 1969 happens 38 years before Sally says hers—these are contradicted by heavily conflicting dates in the Redacted audio series later on regarding both Kathy's disappearance and the Red Hatching. In Angels, Abby McPhail identifies 2008 as the year of Kathy's disappearance, which suggests 2009 as the year of the Red Hatching. In Salvation, the Thirteenth Doctor recognises the Red Hatching as the cause of death of Andy Proctor, who was last seen by his daughter Cleo "nearly 20 years" before 2022 according to Recruits.
