I'm guessing it might be one of those times where they're kind of thrown in there but not the main drive of the plot (Five Doctors, Pandorica Opens etc).

Funny thing is Paul's father was in State of Decay (Fourth Doctor story from his final season about Vampires in E-space).

Cbr.com posted a fan theory that Swarm is an early incarnation of the Master. I'm mixed on it but what do you'll think?

At least Big Finish will benefit from this .

Yes, but as much as I recall the information was being presented to the Doctor in a confusing manner. This seemed pretty straight forward, I understood immediately. I don't want to feel as though the Doctor has an IQ two standard deviations lower than myself.
I haven't seen the second episode. I have a fear. I do hope now that the woman Clair has been sent back in time by the Weeping Angel that this won't be where she mentioned meeting the Doctor. If so, how can she remember meeting the Doctor before her own experienced timeline? I should trust the writer, but there we are.
The second episode was a vast improvement over the first in that it told an actually coherent story. I still feel like the other fragments should have been removed and told in their own episode as it would have allowed more time to showcase Mary Seacole and the Crimean War but it was a definite step in the right direction.

Still scratching my head over how that would work, honestly. Swarm has been imprisoned since the beginning of time, right? Yet he and the Doctor have battled countless times before. Encounters that he DOES remember. It would take alot of backflipping to explain how he ended up there and why do it to an earlier incarnation whom hasn't had the battles we've seen over the Doctors history?
This is why making The Master the Timeless Child works much better. It gives him a reason to hate the Time Lords the way he does. It also explains why they'd cap his regeneration cycle/ability. It'll explain his fear of death after experiencing it so much. Plus, if Swarm was The Master, making him the Timeless Child and imprisoned somewhere for all time by The Division to hide him, would make more sense.

It would make more sense as a future version of the Master than an early incarnation. Having the Master go from Dhawan to Swarm could be cool.
Granted the Master has more incarnations we haven't seen and they are less likely to stick to humans. So having an early incarnation be an alien makes some sense. But the question is do people care which Master fight the Doctor beyond the diehards?
It's not that big a deal. I'm just surprised they are using his early days. Most of Eight's appearances recently have been time war adjacent.
