1. I finally caved and got a Netflix subscription, and proceeded to break it in by watching Withnail & I.

Which means that in all likelihood, the first time the Doctor opened the file, he abruptly found himself in need of it, because the angels came out of Sally Sparrow's photographs and zapped him and Martha to 1969.)

I'm just going to take Angels Take Manhattan as evidence that any additional Weeping Angel Powarz introduced after Blink are made up on the spot and can be ignored if convenient. Which I'd already kind of done for half the crap in the Time of Angels two-parter, because seriously, the concept is creepy enough without piling on bells and whistles at every turn.

See, this is what I'm talking about. You're a bastion of good sense.
