No ‘Doctor-lite’ episode should work this well, but Moffat’s script offers an adroit balance of humour, suspense and timey-wimey SF, the Weeping Angels are creepily effective (at least as a one-off), and Carey Mulligan, taking the lead, puts in a virtuoso performance.

Doctor Who, Series 3

David Tennant hits the ground running post- Rose Tyler, in a season characterised by overt explorations of racism (experienced by companion Martha Jones), the return of the Master (revitalised by John Simm), and the brilliant, almost Doctor-less episode ‘Blink’ (starring Carey Mulligan).
