“You’ve lived long enough” – the 10th Doctor’s constant hypocrisy on this is really annoying.
In retrospect, Eccleston only getting one season is integral to the bite of 'Everything has its time and everything dies.' That theme will culminate with it being true for him too.
It’s weird and confusing that the last person to tell Cassandra she’s beautiful was Cassandra. Undermines a potentially lovely scene.
Well this makes sense I think - the point is that this is Cassandra who reduced herself to a trampoline recognising she had beauty in all forms. There are problematic shades to that, but at least in terms of subtext I think it's straightforward.
