It's all about faith and sacrifice, this season You were of course the one who mentioned faith first, but that seemed to me very key again in the last two episodes. Not just the faith that Martha has in the the Doctor, but also faith in fighting for King and Country. I like the idea that while season 27 was all about Bad Wolf references, 28 was all Torchwood-y, this season deals in something a lot less obvious and a lot more interesting. Oh! Not just sacrifice but redemption! Novice Hame in Gridlock, McDonnell in 42 (not just sacrifice but atoning for her sin). Again I'm sure that there's more but my brain is fuzzy and I don't have time to read recaps right now. I'm guessing though that the appearance of Harkness is also going to tie into this in a major way.
