1. Clara Can Become The Twelfth Doctor's Apprentice
This, I think, has to become Clara's ultimate destiny. It almost happened with Ace. Had there been a series 27, the plans were for the Seventh Doctor to guide his companion towards joining the academy in Gallifrey and following in his footsteps. We still don't know what happened to Ace. I'm still hopeful that Sophie Aldred will make an appearance at some point in the future...but it's probably best we didn't see that ending for her character. Because then she would be dead with the rest of the Timelords. Though the thought of Ace leading the battle against the Dalek Empire brings a smile to my face. Perhaps with noble warrior Leela at her side? Now of course the Doctor is alone in the universe. Taking on not just a companion, but an apprentice ,might be the way for him to expand his legacy, particularly with one more regeneration and that pesky Valeyard not too far off now. I'm not talking about Clara becoming a Timelady, we already sort of have River Song for that and I'm hopeful that Romana may make her way back from E-Space one day. But what about building a new Tardis? Setting Clara off to travel time and space, saving humanity and all other races from the darkest threats to the universe? It would be an interesting arc for the Twelfth Doctor, in a mentor role - something that could fit Capaldi's Doctor - and Clara to take. Teaching her not just about the wonders of the universe but how he gets there and the decisions and actions he takes when danger arises. Particular if my above points, connecting with the Tardis and using her experiences of all those loves she led, come to fruition. Armed with all that skill and knowledge, what better way for Clara's story to end then to say goodbye, stepping into her own Tardis, armed with her own sonic screwdriver? What do you think? Are there possibilities for Clara to take that I haven't considered? Or are you not a fan and want her gone from the Tardis before the end of series 8 / 34 is played out? Or do you want her to stay just the way she is? Sweet and mysterious. Let me know with your comments below! And anyone from the BBC, Steven Moffat, Brian Mitchin Mark Gatiss or anyone else involved in the show, I'm an aspiring writer so please feel free to contact me if you want me to write a script using the ideas I discussed above. Just pitching...
