* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** Part two of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS12E4GenesisOfTheDaleks "Genesis of the Daleks"]] uses this for a cliffhanger, ending on a shot of Sarah falling from the scaffolding around the Thals' missile.
** Part three of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS14E3TheDeadlyAssassin "The Deadly Assassin"]] infamously ends on a freeze-frame shot of Goth attempting to drown the Doctor. The cliffhanger drew so much outcry from MoralGuardians that it actually got producer Creator/PhilipHinchcliffe kicked off the show; the offending footage was wiped from the master tape, and the cliffhanger was altered around this. However, off-air U-matic recordings of the uncensored version survived, and the original cliffhanger was restored from these for home media releases.
** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS22E6RevelationOfTheDaleks "Revelation of the Daleks"]] closes with the Doctor and Peri deciding to go somewhere more lighthearted after their trip to Tranquil Repose turned out to be anything but. The Doctor comes up with an idea and tells Peri that "I'll take you to--" before getting cut off by a freeze-frame into the credits. This was meant to lead into the next season's opener, "The Nightmare Fair", where he would've finished the sentence with "Blackpool," but a BBC-imposed 18-month hiatus led to the entire season being rewritten. The footage of the complete line was consequently thrown out.

Props fall over and coffee continues to pour until it overflows a character's cup. In one episode, the caught perpetrator doesn't freeze with everyone else and starts running around the room trying to escape.
