 * The discovery of a bizarre message encoded as an Easter egg on 17 different DVD releases caused a flurry of interest on the Internet due to the cryptic nature of the message. The message, which appeared to have been shot on film many years earlier, depicted a man with glasses conducting what appears to be a one-sided conversation with an unknown person, and he was occasionally interrupted by a young black woman.

 * Sally Sparrow receives a bizarre message addressed to her from someone called the Doctor in 1969 while investigating an old house called Wester Drumlins near London. Sparrow learns of the Weeping Angels and during the course of the adventure her friend Kathy Nightingale was transported back to 1920, and a policeman named Billy Shipton was sent back to 1969.

Ultimately, Sparrow stops the Weeping Angels from capturing the Doctor's TARDIS and with the help of Larry Nightingale sends the vessel back to 1969. After this event, Sally and Larry take over the ownership of the DVD rental store where Larry works, turning it into a bookstore, but Sally remains distant from Larry as she awaits the final resolution of her involvement with the time-travelling Doctor.
