5. The photo that didn't become an angel in Blink just hasn't become an angel or manifested yet...or convenient theory, because the original Angel is quantum locked, it can't manifest?!? Can anyone who rewatches the 2 parters tell me if this contradicts anything? | 5.

: It could be either the quantum lock that you mentioned, or the whole 'scavengers' excuse. It would be nice to see a proper explanation.[[Special:Contributions/86.164.120.218|86.164.120.218]] 23:34, June 28, 2010 (UTC) | |||

*Father Octavian: the Blink angels' has only been shown to work in their unobserved form...so one could wrap around Father Octavian's neck and is quantum locked when someone looks at him/her before he/she touch Octavian. | *Father Octavian: the Blink angels' has only been shown to work in their unobserved form...so one could wrap around Father Octavian's neck and is quantum locked when someone looks at him/her before he/she touch Octavian. | ||
*The Doctor wasn't surprised that the Angels could touch people, but just surprised that they would kill instead of feed...so it implys that Blink Angel could do it too...[[Special:Contributions/203.168.176.42|203.168.176.42]] 20:23, June 28, 2010 (UTC) | *The Doctor wasn't surprised that the Angels could touch people, but just surprised that they would kill instead of feed...so it implys that Blink Angel could do it too...[[Special:Contributions/203.168.176.42|203.168.176.42]] 20:23, June 28, 2010 (UTC) | ||
: The Doctor's comment was that they 'must need bodies' in this case. Though I'm not sure if they ever fully explain what for...[[Special:Contributions/86.164.120.218|86.164.120.218]] 23:34, June 28, 2010 (UTC) | |||

You could rationalise it with the idea that the Angels seen in ToS have in some way 'evolved' beyound those in Blink and have new/differing abilities. Things don't stay the same. I'd say it was just changing the alien to fit the plot needs. Not entirely happy with it; I liked the 'purer' idea of the Angles from Blink too. The fact that they were 'observed' and 'quantum locked' (not by choice) becasue of this was nice. The optional defence mechanism explantion just isn't the same calibre of idea; its a significant weakening of the 'alienness' of them. Still; I quite like the way BOB communicated; nice an flat.

I didn't mind them adding abilities to the angels too much, as the whole scavengers thing can kind of explain it, the bit I wasn't keen on was when Amy had to 'pretend' she could see them. It always seemed like the process was automatic. The only reason the angels might start to use it instinctively rather than reflexively is that they were afraid to freeze at the right moment. I think this now needs to be cleared up.[[Special:Contributions/86.164.120.218|86.164.120.218]] 23:34, June 28, 2010 (UTC) | |||
