    • The Weeping Angels were a species of winged humanoids from the early universe, so called because they covered their faces to prevent trapping themselves in stone form for eternity, giving them a weeping appearance.
    • They first appeared in the 2007 episode "Splink ", and have since featured in countless other stories as a testament to Moffat's lack of imagination. Within the series' narrative, the Weeping Angels are extraterrestrial predators resembling statues that have existed since the dawn of time to enforce the Green Cross Code. They feed off the "potential energy" of the years human roadkill would have lived if they had only learned to SPLINK . Danny made for a particularly delectable feast (if a little burned).
    • The Weeping Angels are one of the oldest species in the Doctor Who Universe and also one of the most malevolent. They are so named due to their trait of covering their face with their hands, giving them a seemingly weeping appearance. This is a defense mechanism to prevent trapping themselves in stone for eternity by making eye contact with another individual of their kind.
    • De Weeping Angels kunnen misschien het beste omschreven worden als levende standbeelden. Als niemand kijkt naar hen (ook al knipper je maar even met je ogen), komen ze tot leven en kunnen ze vrij bewegen. Zo lang er ook maar één iemand kijkt naar deze wezens, zien ze eruit als simpele standbeelden. Ook afbeeldingen en video's van Weeping Angels zijn Weeping Angels. Dit houdt in dat als niemand naar een video of afbeelding van een Weeping Angel kijkt, de Weeping Angel tot leven komt.
    • Recently in 2011, I moved into a house with my wife, Isabella. We were expecting a baby in November, so we had to make sure everything was right. We met with the estate agent, who greeted us with what seemed like a very happy face, as if we'd been gone for ages. He shook my hand and took us to the house. When we arrived, the house looked very modern. It was luxury. It had a large back garden, with all the garden gnomes, and the... statues. I asked him about those statues, and he looked confused. "I've never noticed 'em," he said. "Just ignore 'em, the owner will probably come collect 'em."
    • With an age almost as old as the universe itself, Weeping Angels that were converted from ordinary statues appeared as they did before being taken over, and other Angels resembled stone statues of winged, humanoid women in chitons. Baby Angels resembled cherubs — naked, infant-sized versions of adult Angels. Baby angels possessed the same traits as the others, but when they aren't seen, their footsteps and child-like giggles can be heard. Sometimes they may even take the form of even bigger statues such as the Statue of Liberty. (TV: The Angels Take Manhattan) When showing ferocity, Weeping Angels would bare their fangs and claws. (TV: Blink)
    • The Weeping Angels are a powerful predatory species in the revived series of Doctor Who, serving as recurring enemies for the Eleventh Doctor after a one-shot appearance in the run of the Tenth. They have the ability to move at an almost unbelievably fast pace, but can only do so when no one looks at them due to a quantum lock that activates directly when they are observed. When someone sees them, they are forced to revert to a stone statue in the likeness of a winged humanoid.
    • To survive, Weeping Angels require time energy, and their preferred method of gaining it is by sending their victims into the past. By doing this, they can feed on the time potential energy of the life that could have been lived. There has also been an instance of Angels trying to access a TARDIS for energy, and in another instance trying to feed on the spillage from a rip in the space-time continuum.
    • A Weeping Angel is a statue that is crying because it hasn't ripped you to shreds yet. They are one of the many archenemies of Dr. Who and probably one of the scariest statues you will ever see. Weeping Angels are evil creatures and should be avoided at all costs. If you see one, just close your eyes. They'll probably go away.
