This may have already been discussed, but what if Missy is in fact an older version of the Master, and it is Simm’s Master who has forgotten his past self? It would make sense that she doesn’t ever recall being there, and it would make sense why Simm recognized who she was. I think it would fit in with Simm’s overconfident Master in that he wouldn’t be able to come to grips with the idea he can’t remember being there as Missy. Perhaps she’ll regenerate into Derrick Jacobi? Far fetched, but we’ll see…

@blenkinsopthebrave-

I certainly hope Bill doesn’t get de-cybermanized, not because I think it’s a fitting end for the character, but because it would gut the emotional aspect of the whole episode. Yes, there’s the possibility this might be her voice in a flashback, but there’s the other possibility this is the Doctor speaking with her in his “mind construct” a la Clara in Heaven Sent.

I do think they’ll find a way to give Pearl the opportunity to travel with the entity from The Pilot, a creature who may have the powers to cure her in a sense – but scrape away the veneer and it would almost be a carbon copy of Clara’s end.

We’ll see…
