If Mr Pink joins the team, then it'll be two teachers from that school. In which case, that's pretty much a mirror of the original crew of the TARDIS, with one exception: the Doctor's grand-daughter.A much more tenuous link... the first Doctor Who story was "An Unearthly Child" and the second introduced the Daleks. Here, the second episode features Daleks, and Michelle Gomez, both here and as Sue White in Green Wing, has a distinctly unearthly manner about her. (Hey, I said it was tenuous!)About the girlfriend/boyfriend reference: the show definitely has elements of flawed memory about it at the moment - the Doctor has missing/affected memories, the Dalek had such memories. So, if Susan is likewise suffering from memory problems, she could remember they had "a relationship" but not necessarily remember what it was.But how could she become an antagonist? Well, way back when, the Doctor left her behind and promised that one day he would come back. Obviously, he hasn't, and since then all hell has broken loose with the Time War and other such things. Perhaps she waited several lifetimes, buried David and their children, and eventually decided to go looking.I still think she's probably the Rani, though. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
