I'm not convinced they'll leave Clara dead. I've read somewhere or other that She's going to be in a tv or radio spin-off series set in the school she teaches at. I presume it won't be totally diffrent from the Sarah Jane adventures.

Could easily be set in the time she was alive with the doctor - time travel is time travelly

Yeh, she could be involved in the spinoff series they recently announced which is supposedly to be based in london.

Am I the only one who doesn't rate, appreciate or fancy Clara?
Imo a classic Who assistant, unremarkable acting, has only one acting face (see Ace and Amy) and hers is "cutely bewildered" she has annoying eyebrows and a stupid nose, she does however sport a rather perky pair of norks.






Still would though.

I don't think she's too bad an actress - Maisie Williams makes that more obvious - but her character was played out by the end… or maybe just not written well enough for, which applies to a lot of it.

Well, we all see something different in people, for me she's the most desirable 'celeb' I've seen in about 20 years!

I hope she does get a spinoff series. The Sarah Jane Adventures was one of the best kids programmes ever.

Yes.

Apparently Clara is in another scene yet to be seen so she's back already .. possibly for five minutes.

As the Doctor was explaining about the alley , and they saw it for the first time , a guy walked past , behind them , twice .

I thought he was going to be part of the plot , but no , just bad continuity.

Clara pretty enough ,but ............. meh!.

Yeah he was trying to look normal, twice, and failed.

I missed that. I must have been distracted by something twice.

I did get the feeling that Clara was just a little too 'knowing' in some episodes.

Hmm, what tv minx is going to be the next 'assistant'?

I'm hoping it's Zig and Zag.

I heard a rumour that it will be Miranda  (I kid you not!)

frankus

that'd make the Catherine Tate episodes seem less bad

I've battled through all the shit of the last few series, but that would probably push me over the edge into "I can't face watching this".

Now if it was Miranda Richardson !!!!!

Unfortunately this story has legs. Miranda was offered a role by Moffat a few years ago but was forced to turn it down as she was making her final comedy series at the same time. I think if she joined I'd bail out .. she's far too tall at 6' 2" .. it's bad enough that Alex Kingston's been dug up from her grave.

I know the TARDIS is larger on the inside but that is fucking pushing it really.
