!!This Episode Provides Examples of:

* BottleEpisode: Inverts the status of the original story, joining "Child of Time" and "Fractures" as one solidly connected lead-up to the three-part finale.
* BoyMeetsGirl
* [[FirstGirlWins First Guy Wins]]
* FramingDevice: The Weeping Angels basically provide the way for Watson to meet and get to know Sally -- the story is less about Sally and the Doctor fighting the Angels and more about Watson and Sally falling in love.
* GetBackToTheFuture: Holmes is particularly anxious to do so, especially to [[CrowningMomentOfFunny get away from the Beatles]].
* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: Sally insists to Cathy that this is the case with Watson.
* IWillFindYou: Invoked by Watson.
* MayDecemberRomance: Watson is old enough to be Sally's father -- she's a college girl, he's forty-one.
* MeetCute
* MythologyGag: Watson mutters that "The angels have the phone box" sounds like a T-shirt.
* NameAndName
* RelationshipUpgrade: At the end of the story.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: By the time the action picks up.
* TimeTravelRomance: And how!
