Worthy of the Discontinuity Guide

The old Doctor Who Discontinuity Guide (Paul Cornell, Keith Topping, Martin Day) had a subheading for Double Entendres, which included, under Earthshock, such gems as

The Cybermen: ‘We must act… quickly!’


The Bit of Adrenaline, Dash of Outrage review of Praxeus feels like it's reaching back to that with this comment:

Will: I continue to not really feel Yaz as a character, but I liked that her motivation this episode seemed to be that she was desperate to get some substantial material.


(Several days after it aired, I did watch Praxeus. It … wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be? Wouldn't go so far as to call it good, mind.)
