autumnia: Afternoon Tea at the St. Regis (Afternoon Tea)
From: [personal profile] autumnia
Osgood originally appeared in the 50th anniversary special and is no relation to Clara (at least not yet). She's important because she participated in the peace treaty between humans and Zygons in the special, though this episode's intro suggests there is more to that than just signing some papers.

A lot of the comments I've seen about this episode center around current events, particularly immigration and discrimination. There were even a few that thought it was poorly timed considering the ending with Clara ready to shoot the Doctor's plane out of the sky and the tragic plane crash in Egypt.

I think Clara's character hasn't been fleshed out enough even though we've seen her through several series. Some of the other companions who've spent less time with the Doctor (e.g. Donna) seems to have much more complex personalities and is more relatable than Clara. And yes, there does seem to be some flaws in this storyline as well, particularly with the soldiers accepting those Zygons' response that they were the humans, not the other way around.
