"I disagree wholeheartedly on Clara's death/departure. I've already made a post about it over on Tvtropes but I'll copy and paste it here if you don't mind:\n\n\"While Clara's speech at the end was nice she deserved better than what she got. It's bad enough that she died but the fact that she didn't have a choice in the matter and had a dissatisfying death makes it worse. Yes she chose to accept the mark and she accepted her death when it came to her but she didn't actually choose to die. She expected Me to ensure she survived but was forced to accept that she wouldn't/couldn't. That's not an actual choice and it's one of the main reasons I don't like how Clara's departure was handled. I may not have liked the way Clara had been handled these past two series but she deserved better. Probably one of the worst Companion departures out of all of New Who.\""
