When Steven Moffat claimed that Episodes 4 and 5- boasting the return of popular villains the Weeping Angels- were "Aliens" to "Blink"'s "Alien", he was right: the conclusion to what could possibly be the biggest story yet on "Who" adds a whole new fear factor to the Angels' resumee, while neatly taking care of several plot strands established by the show-runner over the course of Series 5's openers ("cracks in time"? "Pandorica"? oh Stevey, you spoil us!). Needless to say, while not the tense spectacle we witnessed last week, "Flesh And Stone" proved stunning on all levels, to the point where the romantic twist at the end proved very effectively jarring, and leaving what could be a back-to-basics episode with a brilliant place to start. Let Twilight-mania commence as we go with Rory to meet "The Vampires Of Venice"!
