Re back to the 'political agenda' thing. DW has always had a pretty liberal slant anyway hasn't it? I can't keep track of how many 'evil corperations' have turned up over the years.
The Colonel: As there was no mention of a charred corpse by the door, I like to think she managed a miraculous escape. Someone on GB even put forward the idea that the Trickster might have spirited her away. Thats his thing after all. I just want to know what her backstory was and what she lost to make her turn.
So I'm guessing the Doctor did a lot of computer checks (that damn Tardis computer knows everything!) on past companions as well as visiting his more recent ones. I doubt he paid a visit to all of them.
In general, I had a few nitpicky gripes with the story, but overall I adored the whole thing. Only wish my allergies hadn't kept flaring up damnit!
