[QUOTE="Guest 85555, post: 6767147"] I think in a show with time travel and alternate dimensions, it is never really possible to completely wipe out a character (the way they handled Rory when he was eliminated from existence seems like the only one with any real sticking power.....and they found a way around that). The writers can always find a way to bring them back if they really want to. It seems like when they do really get rid of somebody, they have to jump through all kinds of hoops to explain why it isn't possible to bring the person back in some form. It is actually harder to swallow that they are truly dead sometimes because there are so many means available to the doctor to undo that kind of thing, or foresee it and prevent it. Given the nature of the setting, it actually strains my disbelief less when people pop back in after being dead or sent to another reality, more than when they stay dead. In terms of Clara, I would think if they wanted to, they could easily use Clara's fragments to bring her back. It sounds like Jenna Coleman is onto another show but I wouldn't be surprised if she makes appearances on the show down the road. [/QUOTE]
