Moffat’s Women – Osgood

In the span of just two episodes, Osgood comes from wishing for the Doctor to save her and faltering in his presence to leading UNIT’s confrontation with the Cybermen, confidently presenting her own theories, and bravely interacting with Missy. She’s intelligent, she has an eye for details which others around her can be quick to overlook, and above all she is genuinely good-hearted. As the tear in the veil of ignorance of the negotiations among Zygon and humans, both she and her copy keep silent rather than to endanger the approaching peace between the two. In many ways, Osgood does not merely represent the fandom – she represents the best qualities of the Doctor, too.
