I remember RTD touching on the Lucy/Rose parallel in a DWM interview by describing Lucy as an "evil Rose."
As a non-DWM reader, I feel so vindicated! I saw what the creator intended. Go me! Hee.
I remember that there was a Lucy poster in the Doctor Who Adventures mag, with the caption "I made my choice a long time ago." - since they get sent early version of the script, it's possible that quote was in an earlier draft but just got changed.
They probably decided that it was just a little too on-the-nose if they had Lucy flat-out quote Rose.

Thanks for this, fantastic post.
