Doctor Who fans LOVE that ending for Missy, as it was the culmination of her redemption arc (she had listened to the Twelfth Doctor's speech and had stabbed her earlier self). They were way more annoyed she/he came back in Jodie's era acting like an unrepentant villain again who wiped out the time lords out of frustration over learning The Doctor's origin There is a way to fix it, though. Say that the Saxon Master didn't regenerate into Missy. Make Sasha Dahwan's Master his direct successor and wibbly wobbly, timey wimey it so that Missy was the next incarnation. It's Doctor Who, they can fix stuff like that pretty easily. That's always been my theory. We never actually see Saxon regenerate into Missy, it's only implied, and Missy's past memories of the event were obviously shaky throughout the entire episode. |

Yeah, that's largely in part to the result Moffat invented for the 50th anniversary, if you cross paths with a prior or future incarnation, you can't retain any memory of your meeting when you leave that time zone. Applies to any time lord as demonstrated by Missy and Saxon. I think Big Finish dealt with what happened to Missy after "The Doctor Falls" in an audio, but it was still left unclear if she became Dawan's Master afterwards. |
