Just a thought but I have noticed an (albeit tenuous) link in the last 3 eps.

In the Rings... last visited that market with his grand daughter

In Cold War... Ice Warriors primarily faced by Doctor 2

In Hide... 1974 the time Doctor 3 was knocking about with UNIT

Am I just thinking too much into nods to the past?

    Journey to the Centre of the Tardis next week - reminiscent of Castrovalva?

    A 5th Doctor story, but the 4th Doctor's scarf was used iirc

    The UNIT stories are ambiguously set in either the 70s or the 80s; surely the repeated Metebilis III references were a much more substantial link?

    That's true - I forgot to add about the Metebelis 3 - def a stronger link to 3rd Doctor

    No, not enough nods to the past for me. Personally I can't get enough of them, especially (and I hope I'm wrong in stating this) as it looks as if Classic fans are going to be short-changed in the 50th Anniversary episode.
