Yes, that one. He even touched her metal breast, if his words weren't enough.
Well, at the time she was still attached to that weird frame. Of course she went on to kill him...

Later, everyone else seemed just to be frightened by her.
If any of the people drooling over her were faced with her in real life, trying to kill them, I'm sure their reaction would be different.

Exactly. Their goal is to "improve" human bodies so flat shoes should be obvious, also they never made women and men look different.
It's the shoes that show it up, funnily enough. The rest could almost be excused.

I agree. I wonder if Russell and Chris were satisfied by the result, or if the thought "it was wrong" came to them when they watched the episode, but it was too late. It's so obvious to us...
Chibnall doesn't mention it AT ALL. And RTD only as a joke. So it's entirely possible that they were just trying to put on a good show - they're there to 'sell' the show, not to point out flaws.

Children of Earth was a masterpiece but I think the best episode Davies has written and I've seen is probably Midnight.
We shall have to disagree. :) I never liked Midnight, but that's another discussion...

In the Victorian episode with the Eleventh, when she couldn't reach the ladder, that told us about her height. When she was supposed to only use her legs, well, I interpret it differently.
Fair nuff, to each their own.

I love that little video for Children in Need with Matt losing his clothes, so funny :)
I miss him still...

And sorry this reply is so late! Life just ate me.
