Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro 
I think the 2046 DNA search was a bluff. Ruby threw the tablet with the answer down on the ground in front of Sutekh. It didn’t actually have the information. It was all part of The Doctor’s plan.
I think Steven’s right to mention the crying. It really doesn’t have the emotional effect it should when it’s every episode bar 73 Yards and Legend.
Boom and Rogue earned it – the rest of the time it’s just used too freely as an emotional signifier – it’s not healthy to bottle up your emotions but it doesn’t feel entirely “post-therapy” to be so volatile either. There’s a middle ground.
