Good as Gold (Doctor Who)

"Good as Gold" is a special mini-episode of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who that was first broadcast on CBBC (as part of Blue Peter) on 24 May 2012.

His pursuer is revealed as a Weeping Angel, who is seeking to seize the Olympic flame and rob the planet of the good will and spirit it symbolises.

[2] Robert Gonzalez of io9 stated that Steven Moffat chose the winning script "wisely" though he did find the premise of "a weeping angel that can chase somebody while being watched by thousands of Olympic Game spectators a little dubious".

[4] Susana Polo writing for The Mary Sue described it as "funny and cute" and stated that it "definitely should not be part of a serious effort to fit it into [Doctor Who] canon".

[5] Louisa Mellor of Den of Geek affirmed that the short episode should be viewed "in the spirit in which it was intended, i.e. some fun for primary school kids who love Doctor Who, the Olympics, and presumably, making their teachers happy".
