15 Doctor Who Mistakes That Nobody Will Ever Be OK With

11. The TARDIS Hated Clara... But Then Suddenly Loved Her

Clara Oswald kept us all on our timey-wimey toes throughout Series 7 which was largely dominated by her sporadic introductions, multiple deaths and the fact that she spent most of it gallivanting in a skirt that was just a little bit too tight. Hold on... Did the Doctor really just say that?! Anyway, perhaps one of the most intriguing aspects of the ongoing "impossible girl" mystery was that the TARDIS was just as dubious about the Time Lord's new companion as the rest of us. She (yes, the TARDIS is a 'she' - get with the frickin' times!) was even more unpredictable whenever Clara was around and she didn't even let her in at one point which was seemingly laying the groundwork for one of the biggest and most badass bitch!fights in Doctor Who history. Clara vs. the TARDIS - ding, ding, ding, ding! And then nothing happened. It makes sense that the TARDIS was initially unsure of Clara, sensing that she was such an anomaly of time and space, but it would've been nice if they'd had some sort of subsequent on screen reconciliation, or at least something to suggest that Steven Moffat hadn't forgotten all about it. Chance would be a fine thing.
