Clara Oswald: Thank you and Farewell

In the far, far future, an impossibly ancient young woman steps through a door onto a trap street in London and takes her place: she got here the long way round.

She dealt with Daleks, outwitted an Ice Warrior, fought off cannibal 'droids; she was funny and clever and true.

Eternity has played out and she is satisfied with memories of a life in three parts: before him, with him, after him, being brave, running fast, never cowardly or cruel, at least she tried and if she failed, she made amends.

And she never, ever ate pears.

We shared her story; her adventures and fears, her triumphs and tears, we've been inspired, we are grateful and more than a little bit proud:

Thank you Stephen and Peter and Jenna,

for giving us Clara and Twelve.
