According to a Radio Times poll, the Weeping Angels are the Doctor Who monster that fans most want to see return in season 12. They are one of the scariest sights you will ever see in the show. And fans are hoping to see them again. These terrifying creatures first appeared during the Tenth Doctor’s time in the TARDIS in the episode “Blink”.
In this episode, the Tenth Doctor and his companion Martha Jones were sent back in time without the TARDIS by the angels. However, the Doctor left clues for a young woman named Sally Sparrow to find and was eventually saved. The Weeping Angels reappeared during the Eleventh Doctor’s time in the TARDIS and sent his companions Amy Pond and Rory Williams back in time. Unfortunately, it happened in a way that meant he could never see them again.
