Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events involve the Doctor using an artifact to connect with the planet's history: the Time and Space Visualiser in Episode 29 (Xeras) and the discovery of the frozen seaweed statues in Episode 30 (Aridius). The device and the statues both serve as historical markers.
