Wow! That is one damn weird co-incidence. I'm suspecting something like unconscious plagiariasm, simply because it's such a distinctive line. Simon Nye must have seen the episode, but not remembered it when he was writing Amy's Choice.
I honestly think it's that rather than any deeper meaning or connection between the two scenes. (Not that we, the viewers, won't fanwank something more into it.)
