Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor’s temporal displacement ('We’ve landed in 1970') in Episode 19 transitions Jamie into a dystopian labor system in Episode 20. This escalates the themes of colonial extraction and systemic oppression, mirroring Jamie’s historical memory of Culloden’s aftermath.
