True.
The similarities between the set-up this season and in season six are pretty pronounced: menacing but campy female figure dressed in black has been watching our heroine from the underworld with some kind of creepy intent. It wouldn't surprise me if the crises/resolutions end up similar as well.
Well we already know that they'll probably end up in a greenworld (the Nethersphere), although I am very curious to see what needs fixing. Clara, presumably. And the Doctor's selfdoubt. (There might even be a wedding... It wouldn't be a finale without one. But I couldn't tell you if it would be Clara or the Doctor who'd get hitched.)
*nods* Thinking about it, though, the Doctor himself has been a pretty 'dark' mirror all season (that, in fact, seems to be the main thrust of the mirroring). Which makes me wonder if what/in any sense Missy might prove to be a light mirror.
She 'saves' people from death... That mirrors both the Library and the Bells of St John. I have a feeling Missy tilts more towards the GI than CAL.
