Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both scenes emphasize the Cybermen’s direct and violent targeting of the Doctor’s companions (Polly in both). This callback strengthens the theme of the Cybermen’s relentless, personal persecution of the companions and the Doctor’s protective role.
