ETA3 or something: Looking over the transcript, the word "face" is all over the story, both in dialogue and imagery, in fake Odin's projection... On my face, right now, more advanced technology than your species will manage over the next nine million years. The joy of war! Can't you see it on my face? Turn your face towards me, Mother, for you're beautiful. Hey, hello, hi! I'm the Doctor. It's lovely to meet you face to, er, convincing hologram. I know where I got this face, and I know what it's for.
The big reveal, apparently, being the Doctor realising why he took on this particular face. But Ashildr defeats the aliens by literally putting on one of their faces. There's some very sneaky religious imagery in this, the face of God being both horrible and wondrous, always the same and ever changing... But of course, anyone who thinks they can act like a god may come across as a bit of an as. (Sorry.)
