just once we will have a good companion stay as long and leave like martha. no death, no memory wipe, no trapped in some alternate dimension. just martha Leave.
it's the ones that stay too long with The Doctor who end up in trouble. Martha chose not to stay and that is why she's ok even though deep down she would have wanted to continue with The Doctor. In the end, she did the right thing, hard as it may be.
Martha leave because she had family and the others companions, maybe they had family but not as big as martha, the first episode that we see martha she is talking to all her family
CHESSE MAR 115 I mean, Steven Moffat has been dancing around having to write a family for any of his companions - but maybe companions with families like Martha's should be explored more in Doctor Who? Just maybe? Maybe we need to actually see people becoming all friendly with the Doctor end in actual consequences for the COMPANION instead of the DOCTOR again? I mean, seriously - the Ponds and Clara Oswald basically GOT HAPPY ENDINGS even if they could never see the Doctor again.
yes they had happy endings, but my point is that for example we dont see much of the family of clara and i was thinking that she didnt have anything to worry about in earth and she gave everything to have a life like the doctor and martha had a big family that she cared about.......
The best part of this scene for me was how Clara’s scene looks like a regeneration for a moment with how her arms are positioned & she screams...but she just falls to the Earth dead.
That is amazing, actually, I can't believe I didn't notice that before! And just...the horrible, horrible contrast between her and the Doctor when it comes to their deaths. The Doctor dies in a blaze of glory, silently, maybe even nobly waiting for his face to change, but...you can tell that Clara was in the worst pain imaginable, and if the music was gone, she would be screaming. The worst part, is,she wants to go out with dignity like the Doctor does, that's why she repeats "let me be brave." But as soon as the raven hits her...all of that is gone.
@@boyerism Yep, even more powerful when you realize the arc began in Flatline ( maybe even on " The Mummy on the Orient Express " ). The Doctor Clara was born, began to act like the Doctor and even lie to Danny like the Doctor. Makes the rest interesting actually.
Everyone DID NOT hate Clara. What we have is a minority of people who dislike her and are quite vocal about it on social media. The fact that this video has 14k likes and only 300 dislikes is a bit of a clue
When he looks around and says "what about me?" My heart shatters. Everytime, you see all the pain and loss that the Doctor has endured over 2000 years, all of it coming back to him. Capaldi was absolutely stellar here, as was Coleman.
The same stellar level we saw between Tennant and Smith in the prison scene about the number of children died in Gallifrey, and that we didn’t see ever again after Capaldi, unfortunately
Especially this quote. Foretelling "I’m sick of losing people. Look at you! Your eyes, you’re never giving up to anger. No, kindness. And one day, the memory of that will hurt so much that I won’t be able to breathe, and I’ll do what I always do, get in my box and I’ll run and I’ll run. In case all the pain catches up. And every place I go, it will be there" 💔
I couldn't promise I wouldn't retaliate. I would destroy the thing, less because of it killing clara, but more because of the logic---it killed her, it will kill again, and so for the whole of humanity and for those that yet live I must remove this threat.
@@gabrielhawkins-connolly143 I think it's said in the episode (or in supplementary materials) to be an extra-dimensional entity, effectively being indestructible in this plane of existence. Whatever it really is, it only *looks* like a raven. The Doctor wouldn't be able to simply kill it.
@@demonkingbadger6689 She knew he couldn't promise it, either. That's why she gave him an order. That's one of my favorite parts of this scene, "you will not insult my memory. There will be *no* revenge."
I think the reason why I loved Clara so much was because she was more than a companion. She didn't listen to doctors words or was clueless, she acted like the doctor. She was what the doctor would've been if he was human. She was his mirror. But mortal
Rainbow Dash Films yup, because I LOVE Clara! It honestly makes me sad when people are giving her so much hate. Especially in the comments of this video
I loved her...even though she was horrible to him at first, but she then wised up and became nicer to him. This scene actually made me cry very hard because unlike Rose, Amy, Martha and River, she had a death scene. Adric also had a death scene with the fifth doctor and everyone cried so Clara is the second one to have a death scene.
Even though this is one of the saddest moments in the series, let's appreciate that atleast this time the Doctor was able to give a one last goodbye to his Clara, instead of losing her in a snap of a finger like with Rory and Amy
We know though that despite their sudden exit for us & the Doctor, Amy & Rory still had full & happy lives together. They live lived, if that makes sense. In that respect, their exit wasn't too sad. Or unexpected, as both had been slowly pulling away from the Doctor (especially Amy's attachment to him) & toward a 'normal' life together. No matter how they finally parted ways with the Doctor, life post TARDIS was still going to be the same for them. Even living in the past, rather than in their present, didn't alter that fact. So it wasn't the fact they were gone, because it was inevitable it was going to happen soon. It was how they left - the abrupt suddenness of it. And once Rory gets zapped, the unintentional brutality of Amy's choice on the Doctor. Of course he knows she'd choose her husband, and that's what he'd want & expect, but it hurts him far more than normal because he's not prepared for it, and hasn't readied himself. Thinking about it though, was the couple's manner of departure a blessing in disguise, compared with the prolonged sense of pain you know is coming? 🤔
Karyx Draws what was that about how is some spook that passes through her end her life I thought she was going to get sprayed with bullets the way she moved in slow motion
Yes she was so we should see her again later in Doctor Who and I can’t wait. Maybe the doctor can save her again later and they can have adventures again.
3:38 Always gets me, her final exhale, arms outstretched as if to regenerate, straight after that she falls to the earth, dead, and The Doctor takes a couple steps forward like he wanted to catch her. He didn't really cry, but you can see it all on his face, absolutely heartbroken at witnessing another companion die without being able to do anything about it. And her scream, silenced for us, but everybody must have heard it echo out across the trap street, just imagine how horrible it truly was, especially for The Doctor, he couldn't do anything but watch.
@@TheGhost-rp3koIt was set, once she took the mark from the kid, even if he took her into the TARDIS, the raven would’ve followed her across all time and space till it killed her.
Cassie Lipton Same she was my favorite watching this back years later gets me mad though yes I understand it was supposed to be her sacrifice but...why not give the death sentence to mishilda...doctor made her IMMORTAL...she wouldve come back from it and everyone lives
Jenna is a great actress and Clara is a perfectly fine character in 11th doctor's time, but after 11 regenerates her characteristics became really unstable due to Moffat's writing, her character's arc is a mess, and her personality is constantly contradicted. Also many ppl dislike her for being so overpowering the doctor
No one necessarily hated her they were just all salty and upset with how they killed of amy and rory I know I was upset I'm just gett ik ng back into the series where Clara is and I cant wait to finally give her a try... I think my heart is ready to move past amy and rory's death... But ya that's my theory on why people "hated" her.😊
This scene breaks me in so many ways. Clara knows what the Doctor is capable of when his hearts are broken, and true to her nature, she saves him. Because when the Doctor in vengeful the one who is hurt the most is him. Because when he is broken inside, he isn't afraid to tear worlds apart. He becomes even more reckless without someone to hold him in check. So her last act is saving so many from the fury of a Time Lord. I used to think Rose was my favorite companion. But Clara has surpassed her, amazingly. Because of her moments like this.
I liked Donna, largely due to all the jokes about them being together, and her stubborn but caring heart, and being like the first independent companion really
I think that most people do because it is the first companion of the doctors who we actually see Die. everyone else was alive, (we didn't see Amy and Rory's death actually take place) and Rivers was set when we didn't know her in the timeline. what would of made it more heart felt if the 11th doctor came through during this sceen that would of made it perfect.
It's because she's sure of herself. After a lot of insecure characters, we get one character who is comfortable in their own skin and everyone hates them cuz how dare they be different smh.
@@VadersFist95 I have never seen anyone bash Murray Gold. In fact, after series 2 people began requesting BBC to release the soundtrack because of how great it was.
The Doctor's always being strong for his friends. Clara could've run, and screamed, and cried, but she stayed strong for the Doctor. This is why I love Clara!
Clara is honestly one of my favorite companions in New Who. I feel like out of all them she was the one who saw the doctor for who he was. She knew he wasn't a hero and she knew that while he tried to be a good person he was certainly capable of doing horrible things when he lost himself. I think that's why she tells him not to take revenge on anybody as she knows that that's what he is likely to do. And of course he doesn't listen.
Donna noticed it too, the first time they met in Runaway Bride. Right at the end of the episode, she tells the Doctor to "Find someone. Because I think you need someone to stop you sometimes".
@@tomboychick true but I never felt like that was super prevalent throughout much of season 4 imo. Obv she didn't have the love interest of Rose and Donna but besides fire and pompeii I never really felt like Donna acted like she knew how bad the doctor could be sometimes.
@@alecbormia4523 True, it's never acknowledged again, but I think the intention was that Donna believed his time with Martha had rehabilitated the Doctor. Especially after she met her. But Clara is the only companion beside River Song (is she a companion? I'm never sure how to classify River in the Doctor's life) who knows just how far the Doctor is capable of going when he's hurting.
When watching this scene, all I could think about is Matt Smith’s Doctor and Clara’s time together. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t think about possibly anything else.
I felt this was such a perfect death, which was ruined in the series finale. Clara had the ability to come back whenever Jenna chose to come back because of being split by the time stream, so a final death for this Clara made sense. She didn't need to have immortality
idk i like the idea that she will still die but till then she can do all the adventure she wants since they were setting her up to be similar to the doctor
+alien dude It was a typical Moffatt semi-death like he gave Amy+Rory and River (twice if you count the ending of "Silence in the Library" as well) and Osgood. He keeps on "sort of" killing characters off trying to wring the emotion from it without having to incur the actual consequences.
I dont know why so many people looked down on Clara. She was an amazing companion and Jenna played her extremely well. Yes, clara did start off a bit slow but all companions did. But as the series progressed she became more confident and brave. She ended up learning so many things about technology, the doctor, the time war, and even learned the basics to flying the tardis. She was able to stand up for herself and learned to stop being scared. I personally loved the moments where she was able to talk to aliens without the doctor and figure out how to use alien technology on her own. Scenes like that showed how smart and independent clara became.
This is a really late response! but I think people disliked Clara bc she just came across as generally unrelatable & Mary-Sue like. People love smart characters, however they wrote Clara in such a way that it just seemed that she was smart out of nowhere - sort of like a bad fanfic where the character is just incredible at everything. We’re constantly told how important & special & interesting Clara is. They give her more power over the doctors story than any other companion by making her involved in literally every incarnation of him, inspiring him to become The Doctor & surviving being scattered across time & later made her effectively immortal with her own TARDIS. All of this just made her TOO impossible for people to engage with her. Most like to be able to see a bit of themselves in the companions, as they are just humans for the most part who get to become brave & go on impossible adventures. Even Rose (who many people dislike) was at her core just an ordinary girl. Oswin Oswald (Clara as Soufflé girl) was a smart character, flirty, witty & really well received by the audience. I think that’s partly bc we learnt about her backstory in her episode, like her sexuality, her first crush, her love for baking; we don’t know much about Clara outside of the doctor.
And they had great chemistry. They were great together. Jenna and Capaldi. I never understood why people liked Rose so much, I didn´t feel the "love story", it was probably because the teenage audince just liked Tennant and Rose was the "anygirl" from round the corner? Personly prefered Martha Jones over Rose. People usually hate her, that she only made eyes on the Doctor- but what else did Rose? I don´t get it. :)
@@cnoelle97 Ok but we don't really know anything about Clara at all. Clara I think is supposed to be this guardian angel type of person to the doctor, but she never really knows that she herself is supposed to be that person until some episode (I forgot the name) with the 11th doctor. It's sort of like river song. Clara is really just an idea of someone who indirectly saves the doctor sometimes. We never get to actually see the real Clara because it's basically an idea of someone spread out across different realities and times/worlds. We were never really meant to know anything about Clara because Clara isn't one person. If the Clara your talking about that people related to was the whole danny, teacher, lover arch thing then yes your right thats why she was well percieved by the audience. But that clara was the same clara that traveled with both the 11th and 12th doctor. After Danny died she became as (i dont know what other word to describe this as but) loveless, and logic over emotions based as the doctor.
It's not just that she goes down with absolute integrity, it's that it's not effortless, you can tell that she's making a huge effort to keep it together even when she's the one about to die
This would have been an amazing and powerful scene if it wasn't retconned out in the very next episode. After two and a half seasons of trying to out-Doctor the Doctor, Clara ends up being just a little too clever and dies in a way that the Doctor would die, but without the luxury of regeneration. It would have been a perfect way to end her character. And then... well, we all saw what happened after that.
Not the very next episode. Two episodes later. In between, we had the absolutely fantastic Heaven Sent! But yes, I agree, Hell Bent undoing this was lame.
Agreed. This scene actually got to me and I don't really get emotional about television shows anymore. And then when they found a way to bring her back, I just felt stupid.
Let's be real, even though she still dies technically, the fact is that they left it open for her to return and that's a retcon in my eyes. This scene really gave a true sense of permanence and then when they introduced that timey wimey mechanic of her delaying her own death... It just undermined the gravitas of this scene even though TECHNICALLY this scene still happens.
I started tearing up the second the Doctor starts making threats, because angry Capaldi could make me feel like I'm in trouble anywhere in the world with those glorious brows.
I was really quite impressed by how this was handled (before 'Hell Bent' happened) but I do have some gripes with the filmmaking here that I have had with Doctor Who a few times in recent years. I feel like they're just doing too much to make us feel. Clara walks out in slow motion, BIG musical score, she gets killed then screams in slow motion through several different angles like it's an episode of Total Wipeout. Sometimes less is more. I feel the scene would have worked better with no slow-mo and no music at all and sure as hell don't have the scream on action replay because it just became hilarious at that point. Which is a shame because the build up to it was FANTASTIC, especially Peter Capaldi's performance.
Uh, a major character dies, and it's a tragic death too. She is literally staring death straight in the face, and when a family member dies, it's a horribly big deal. Any less than what Moffat did in the scene would have been a disservice to the character.
Go watch the first or second season with Clara as a companion, if my memory serves me right, she placed herself in multiple points in the doctors timeline, there is no single Clara, there are multiple Clara's that the doctor runs into
Clara is the Doctor's Impossible Girl, whose own existence spans the entirety of the Doctors, she guided the Hartnell Doctor to his tardis, and the Impossible Girl has died numerous times, yet is always found again at some point on the Doctor's path.
Breaks my heart every time I see it. Fun facts: Jenna forgot to die the first time; got it right next time and, after the take was complete, laying in the street, popped her head up long enough to say "Dead!", and back down again. Just one reason why I love her.
Well, i think, Clara really died - but: Cause she is existing in different Time streams, she is alive... somewhere, sometime. Don't forget: Clara is the impossible Girl
Her death is a fixed point. She may have been taken out of her timestream and traveled the universe but eventually she does go back to the Gallifrey, is reinserted back in her timestream and eventually dies. Remember time isn't strictly a line of cause to effect, when you have your own TARDIS, time is a ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. 1 second left could feel like an eternity.
I was rewatching this episode this afternoon, and I almost flooded the world, this is the saddest thing that ever happened in my entire life! I don't understand why people hate Clara so much, she is the best! If wasn't for her, Doctor Who would have ended in 11th regeneration! She is the smartest and cleverly girl of the whole show! She is amazing and wonderful and deserve all the love of the world❤ **sorry, I am still very emotional**
That ball of barely held together emotion? He destroyed an entire fleet of ships just to rescue a friend who was alive and well. He would burn every world between him and those responsible to avenge her.
That was so brutal for Doctor Who... I have been a fan for a very long time, seen every companion farewell, and this was so unexpected. I know she comes back it is sort of left open with her and 'me'... but she will ALWAYS come back here and DIE. DEAD. DIE IN PAIN! IN AGONY!. At least Adric died in a quick explosion... this is soooo brutal! And I love it...
Ikr. This scene really disturbed me. It's definitely one of the most horrific deaths Doctor Who history. I am glad they cut out the audio if her scream because that would have made it 100x worse.
This is probably one of my favourite scenes from the entire show along with the ending of Heaven Sent. It's a shame that so many people have mixed feeling about Clara and the 13th Doctor's run. In my opinion moments like this more than make up for it. It's tragic, dark, cinematic, poetic and beautiful all at the same time. Peter Capaldi's reaction throughout this scene was incredible. Reminds me of Ashildr's speech from Hell Bent later in the season. "She died, Doctor. Clara died billions of years ago. She died for who she was and who she loved. She fell where she stood. It was sad, and it was beautiful. And it is over. We have no right to change who she was. "
We don't all hate her, it's just some of us feel this departure, which was done very well, was ruined by an overly long and plot-hole ridden departure in the series finale
I think it was more about the Doctor. When he lost Amy and Rory, he could not go back and rescue them despite how badly he wanted to. Trying to save Clara was about all him, not Clara. She was ready to die. The Doctor wasn't ready.
No one hated Jenna Coleman personally, it was the character she played. Same thing with Rose really - I hate her guts, but Billie Piper herself was freaking awesome.
I don't hate her, I hate her character after season 8. She was fine until Last Christmas, great during season 7. After her romance plot ended she just was kind of there.
“Face the Raven” is one of Murray Gold’s songs that are just SO heartbreaking, along with “Doomsday”, “The Rueful Fate of Donna Noble”, “Vale Decem” and many others. I tear up every time I hear them. It doesn’t help that “Face the Raven” also includes some sad refrains of “Clara’s Theme”.
I love how she wasn't afraid of getting killed. Not even a tiny bit. But she was scared for her friend, how will he go through all that. I remember I was telling myself "There is enough time before the episode ends. Maybe they save her" and then it hit me and she will actually die and I said ,,If they save her now after all these emotions then I'll be disappointed".
Which did effectively happen. I know Clara will always die in that alley, but knowing that she could be gallivanting around in another TARDIS for millennia, putting off the inevitable, does rather undercut the emotional impact of this scene.
the point of THIS death is ruined by her living out her life. The whole point is that her life was brought to an early end because of her compassion and the whole thing could have been avoided. Me might as well have just removed the death warrant and she lived out her life at home.
Jena Coleman is a babe! I remember a few years ago at an Armageddon Expo Jena coleman was one of the guests and one of the interesting things she mentioned was the height difference between her and Peter Capaldi (She's 5' 1" tall) which could make scenes where they were standing close together awkward to film. She said that often they had a box for her to stand on to make the filming these scenes less awkward.
i like Clara because she isn't the " don't have a clue about what's happening 99% of the time/ love sick suffering puppy eyes don't tell him I love him/ scary save me doctor" kind of companion... and I don't think she what's to be the Dr... she just more determined and smart that must of the companions. she not my favorite or second fav but I think she is unfairly hatted by many.... maybe because she is like the dr in some ways and that's a "no-no" for a companion in the eyes of many
It's mostly because when she was with 11, she was cocky and had a giant ego that was inflated by him. When she was with 12 though, they were an amazing duo
Obviously that’s a “no-no”. The show wasn’t about the Doctor anymore, it was about Clara. How clever she is, how important she is, blah blah blah. It would be like having Watson one-upping Sherlock all the time. They put too many cooks in the kitchen and it was awful.
radka slebodnikova Rose wasn’t stupid. Martha wasn’t stupid. Donna was not stupid. Amy wasn’t stupid either. So what on earth are you even talking about? If you think someone has to be as clever as Clara was to “not be stupid” then I’m better off arguing with a sea urchin.
@@dearthofdoohickeys4703 Martha wasn't stupid but naive, Rose well, are we going to talk about her? Her character was about being pretty and perky that's it. I liked Donna too, she was smart in my opinion. Amy had her moments, Rory most of the times haven't. I'm not saying they must be something or must not be something, this is totally on the creators of the show. I just loved clara because she was finally someone that was closer to doctor mentally than anybody else. He was her mentor, nothing else fits better I suppose. Don't know why are you so offended by my comment though. Maybe the wording stupid isn't exact, but rather very mediocre intelligence would do. But that would also offend someone...
Out of all the Companions the Dr had, Clara was probably the Best!!! Smart, Loyal, Kept the Dr in check. Shame. But I would have to say it was an Honorable Death.
To be honest, I think that everyone knew this was coming, there was a leak or something. I reckon that everything's going to be unleaky (nice word 😅) under Chibnall, having seen Broadchurch
what is it with making people immortal? Capitan Jack, Ashildr/Me and now Clara? This was a sad ending, but when people die they really should STAY DEAD! Unlike rory
My God, I still get the feels when I watch this! When I saw Face The Raven for the first time, it was just mindblowing, and I cried for a while after Clara's death. Absolutely brilliant!!
What a perfect and great ending for a companion I didn't even like that much. I'm so glad Moffat didn't ruin this with a stupid cop out later! . . . . . . . Why Moffat!?
This is the saddest death on this show, simply because of how she knew she had to walk to her death. Amy went back knowing she would see Rory and live her life (but their departures were HORRIBLY SAD too), but Clara had to say goodbye knowing she was going to die in just a few moments.
I don’t know why everyone hates Clara, she loved the doctor so much and had so much loyalty she always looked after him. It was so sad when she left, she out everyone before herself
To be fair there were some pretty dramatic, terrible deaths back in the old days too... (Somebody please join me in mourning Sara Kingdom and Katarina, along with the obvious Adric). But I agree -- not every companion leaving needs to be a big sad thing. Ian and Barbara found their way home, Steven stayed behind to lead a colony to equality, Jo found love, and so on and so forth. I like New Who too, but I think the only companion who didn't have a tragic ending was Martha, who left of her own accord but whose awesome and enjoyable characterization was entirely overshadowed by the annoyingly increasing unrequited love bit with the Tenth. Even though Bill (or a version of her, anyway) got her happy ending technically, she also technically still died. And now we've got a TARDIS with three companions instead of one-with-a-secondary-one-sometimes as New Who likes to do, so let's hope Chibnall doesn't take the "kill them all" route or something lmfao
As far as I am aware, only Adric died horribly in Classic-Who. In New Who, Amy and Rory were sent back in time, but lived out their lives happily. Rose is trapped in another dimension with her parents. Martha went home. As far as new companions go, Clara is the only one to die properly.
Honestly I couldn’t even imagine what is going through Clara’s mind, she was so certain that her or the doctor would find a way out of this and they didn’t and she is just accepting she has to die. She knows she’s going to die and doesn’t have any idea that the doctor can save her. Like it’s just heartbreaking and terrifying for her that she realizes her life is done and she has to accept it and she can’t do anything about it
It's interesting how everytime a version of her meets The Doctor, she always dies, even the original Clara.
Coincidence I think not.
Actually that's teeeecccchnially not true because the other Clara's who met the doctor in his past might not have died
Because I'm A Potato which one ? The Clara who helped him to choose his TARDIS ?
There's a comic where Twelve and Clara meet a splinter Clara named Oswin Clarence who doesn't die.
Oh crap I have to read the comics then
just once we will have a good companion stay as long and leave like martha. no death, no memory wipe, no trapped in some alternate dimension. just martha Leave.
it's the ones that stay too long with The Doctor who end up in trouble. Martha chose not to stay and that is why she's ok even though deep down she would have wanted to continue with The Doctor. In the end, she did the right thing,
hard as it may be.
Martha leave because she had family and the others companions, maybe they had family but not as big as martha, the first episode that we see martha she is talking to all her family
CHESSE MAR 115 I mean, Steven Moffat has been dancing around having to write a family for any of his companions - but maybe companions with families like Martha's should be explored more in Doctor Who? Just maybe? Maybe we need to actually see people becoming all friendly with the Doctor end in actual consequences for the COMPANION instead of the DOCTOR again?
I mean, seriously - the Ponds and Clara Oswald basically GOT HAPPY ENDINGS even if they could never see the Doctor again.
yes they had happy endings, but my point is that for example we dont see much of the family of clara and i was thinking that she didnt have anything to worry about in earth and she gave everything to have a life like the doctor and martha had a big family that she cared about.......
Martha and Mickey, it's been over 12 years and no other NuWho companions have just left.
The best part of this scene for me was how Clara’s scene looks like a regeneration for a moment with how her arms are positioned & she screams...but she just falls to the Earth dead.
That is amazing, actually, I can't believe I didn't notice that before!
And just...the horrible, horrible contrast between her and the Doctor when it comes to their deaths. The Doctor dies in a blaze of glory, silently, maybe even nobly waiting for his face to change, but...you can tell that Clara was in the worst pain imaginable, and if the music was gone, she would be screaming.
The worst part, is,she wants to go out with dignity like the Doctor does, that's why she repeats "let me be brave." But as soon as the raven hits her...all of that is gone.
Plus the steam of black smoke she exhales, very reminiscent of The Doctors regeneration energy.
T. Estable true, like the opposite. Like the a Doctor dies and gets a new life while Clara dies and gets nothing.
that's very interesting specially because when you think about it she died because she tried to be more like the doctor
@@boyerism Yep, even more powerful when you realize the arc began in Flatline ( maybe even on " The Mummy on the Orient Express " ). The Doctor Clara was born, began to act like the Doctor and even lie to Danny like the Doctor. Makes the rest interesting actually.
I spent the whole time waiting for her to say "run, run you clever boy. And remember me." one last time.
That was her storyline with 11. Her relationship with 12 was altogether different.
@@MaSeshield "You can't see him, can you? You look at him but you can't see him"... :))
Same
Everyone DID NOT hate Clara. What we have is a minority of people who dislike her and are quite vocal about it on social media. The fact that this video has 14k likes and only 300 dislikes is a bit of a clue
Yeah me to
When he kisses her hand, it breaks me every time. Especially when you think when he first regenerated he could barely hug her...
Just noticed at the end of the 50th anniversary show, Ten kisses her hand before he leaves. Bit of foreshadowing there, maybe?.....
Her line, "this is as brave as I know how to be..." KILLS ME EVERY TIME. She is bang on with the delivery and it tears my heart.
"this is as brave.. as i know how to be." 🥺🥺🥺
Elizabeth Woodard don’t forget the
“I know this will hurt you, but please.. be a little proud of me.”
Basically that entire scene. I sob.
"Why the point of being a Doctor if I cant cure you?"
Clara is the only companion who could ever make me cry. Every. Time.
When he looks around and says "what about me?"
My heart shatters. Everytime, you see all the pain and loss that the Doctor has endured over 2000 years, all of it coming back to him. Capaldi was absolutely stellar here, as was Coleman.
The same stellar level we saw between Tennant and Smith in the prison scene about the number of children died in Gallifrey, and that we didn’t see ever again after Capaldi, unfortunately
Especially this quote. Foretelling
"I’m sick of losing people. Look at you! Your eyes, you’re never giving up to anger. No, kindness. And one day, the memory of that will hurt so much that I won’t be able to breathe, and I’ll do what I always do, get in my box and I’ll run and I’ll run. In case all the pain catches up. And every place I go, it will be there" 💔
Clara: "There will be no revenge"
The Doctor: "oh there's going to be all the revenge"
Heh, that would be my thinking. In such a situation, the one thing i couldnt promise.🥺
I couldn't promise I wouldn't retaliate. I would destroy the thing, less because of it killing clara, but more because of the logic---it killed her, it will kill again, and so for the whole of humanity and for those that yet live I must remove this threat.
@@gabrielhawkins-connolly143 I think it's said in the episode (or in supplementary materials) to be an extra-dimensional entity, effectively being indestructible in this plane of existence. Whatever it really is, it only *looks* like a raven. The Doctor wouldn't be able to simply kill it.
@@demonkingbadger6689 Agreed, if I was the doctor, fury would of taken hold after Clara dies.
@@demonkingbadger6689 She knew he couldn't promise it, either. That's why she gave him an order. That's one of my favorite parts of this scene, "you will not insult my memory. There will be *no* revenge."
"Dont run. Stay with me."

"What's the point of being a Doctor if I cant cure you?"

I think the reason why I loved Clara so much was because she was more than a companion. She didn't listen to doctors words or was clueless, she acted like the doctor. She was what the doctor would've been if he was human. She was his mirror. But mortal
am I the only one here who actually LIKES clara!
Rainbow Dash Films yup, because I LOVE Clara! It honestly makes me sad when people are giving her so much hate. Especially in the comments of this video
Her death was so satisfying
Clara Best Companion
Rainbow Dash Films I like Clara because she’s really interesting and is pretty brave but Amy is definitely my favourite?
I loved her...even though she was horrible to him at first, but she then wised up and became nicer to him. This scene actually made me cry very hard because unlike Rose, Amy, Martha and River, she had a death scene. Adric also had a death scene with the fifth doctor and everyone cried so Clara is the second one to have a death scene.
Peter played this scene extremely well. He really managed to break my heart.
Even though this is one of the saddest moments in the series, let's appreciate that atleast this time the Doctor was able to give a one last goodbye to his Clara, instead of losing her in a snap of a finger like with Rory and Amy
We know though that despite their sudden exit for us & the Doctor, Amy & Rory still had full & happy lives together. They live lived, if that makes sense. In that respect, their exit wasn't too sad. Or unexpected, as both had been slowly pulling away from the Doctor (especially Amy's attachment to him) & toward a 'normal' life together. No matter how they finally parted ways with the Doctor, life post TARDIS was still going to be the same for them. Even living in the past, rather than in their present, didn't alter that fact.
So it wasn't the fact they were gone, because it was inevitable it was going to happen soon. It was how they left - the abrupt suddenness of it. And once Rory gets zapped, the unintentional brutality of Amy's choice on the Doctor. Of course he knows she'd choose her husband, and that's what he'd want & expect, but it hurts him far more than normal because he's not prepared for it, and hasn't readied himself.
Thinking about it though, was the couple's manner of departure a blessing in disguise, compared with the prolonged sense of pain you know is coming? 🤔
I'm so glad they didn't make us hear her scream
Me too it would have detroyed me more than it already did

3:38 Always gets me, her final exhale, arms outstretched as if to regenerate, straight after that she falls to the earth, dead, and The Doctor takes a couple steps forward like he wanted to catch her. He didn't really cry, but you can see it all on his face, absolutely heartbroken at witnessing another companion die without being able to do anything about it.
And her scream, silenced for us, but everybody must have heard it echo out across the trap street, just imagine how horrible it truly was, especially for The Doctor, he couldn't do anything but watch.
Why couldn't he do anything to help?

I found her unbearably controlling and quite whiney. Sorry
Jenna is a great actress and Clara is a perfectly fine character in 11th doctor's time, but after 11 regenerates her characteristics became really unstable due to Moffat's writing, her character's arc is a mess, and her personality is constantly contradicted. Also many ppl dislike her for being so overpowering the doctor
No one necessarily hated her they were just all salty and upset with how they killed of amy and rory I know I was upset I'm just gett ik ng back into the series where Clara is and I cant wait to finally give her a try...
I think my heart is ready to move past amy and rory's death...
But ya that's my theory on why people "hated" her.😊
Ikr
My impossible girl...
*_*strange tounge noises*_*

DoctorPanda713 sad that you don’t understand it
The good old memories
TEARS.
This scene breaks me in so many ways. Clara knows what the Doctor is capable of when his hearts are broken, and true to her nature, she saves him. Because when the Doctor in vengeful the one who is hurt the most is him. Because when he is broken inside, he isn't afraid to tear worlds apart. He becomes even more reckless without someone to hold him in check. So her last act is saving so many from the fury of a Time Lord.
I used to think Rose was my favorite companion. But Clara has surpassed her, amazingly. Because of her moments like this.
Couldn’t have worded it better myself mainly because I’m almost illiterate but also because you put it so perfectly
...Then Hell Bent happened, showing that the anguish of a Time Lord could be worse.
For me it’s a tie with Clara and Donna
I liked Donna, largely due to all the jokes about them being together, and her stubborn but caring heart, and being like the first independent companion really
Doctor: “do you know why she said all that to me?”
Ashildr: “she was saving you”
Doctor: “No. she was saving you”
I was was upset and saddened at her death. I liked all his companions but for some reason I identified with her the most, I teared up at her death.
I think that most people do because it is the first companion of the doctors who we actually see Die. everyone else was alive, (we didn't see Amy and Rory's death actually take place) and Rivers was set when we didn't know her in the timeline. what would of made it more heart felt if the 11th doctor came through during this sceen that would of made it perfect.
It's because she's sure of herself. After a lot of insecure characters, we get one character who is comfortable in their own skin and everyone hates them cuz how dare they be different smh.
>"Dont be a warrior"
>"I'm giving you an order"
Brilliant
coz if he's ever going to be a warrior his first order is to not be one

@@stephen5060 I guess we’ll never know
@@stephen5060 dude trust me
Clara is honestly one of my favorite companions in New Who. I feel like out of all them she was the one who saw the doctor for who he was. She knew he wasn't a hero and she knew that while he tried to be a good person he was certainly capable of doing horrible things when he lost himself. I think that's why she tells him not to take revenge on anybody as she knows that that's what he is likely to do. And of course he doesn't listen.
Donna noticed it too, the first time they met in Runaway Bride. Right at the end of the episode, she tells the Doctor to "Find someone. Because I think you need someone to stop you sometimes".
@@tomboychick true but I never felt like that was super prevalent throughout much of season 4 imo. Obv she didn't have the love interest of Rose and Donna but besides fire and pompeii I never really felt like Donna acted like she knew how bad the doctor could be sometimes.
@@alecbormia4523 True, it's never acknowledged again, but I think the intention was that Donna believed his time with Martha had rehabilitated the Doctor. Especially after she met her. But Clara is the only companion beside River Song (is she a companion? I'm never sure how to classify River in the Doctor's life) who knows just how far the Doctor is capable of going when he's hurting.
When watching this scene, all I could think about is Matt Smith’s Doctor and Clara’s time together. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t think about possibly anything else.
I felt this was such a perfect death, which was ruined in the series finale. Clara had the ability to come back whenever Jenna chose to come back because of being split by the time stream, so a final death for this Clara made sense. She didn't need to have immortality
Well, she still has to go back to Gallifrey so she can die. So, she's gone.
Really good point.
she is not inmortal, she is stoped in time but i get your point
idk i like the idea that she will still die but till then she can do all the adventure she wants since they were setting her up to be similar to the doctor
+alien dude It was a typical Moffatt semi-death like he gave Amy+Rory and River (twice if you count the ending of "Silence in the Library" as well) and Osgood. He keeps on "sort of" killing characters off trying to wring the emotion from it without having to incur the actual consequences.
Capaldi's so awesome... His "What about me?" is so powerful...
I dont know why so many people looked down on Clara. She was an amazing companion and Jenna played her extremely well. Yes, clara did start off a bit slow but all companions did. But as the series progressed she became more confident and brave. She ended up learning so many things about technology, the doctor, the time war, and even learned the basics to flying the tardis. She was able to stand up for herself and learned to stop being scared. I personally loved the moments where she was able to talk to aliens without the doctor and figure out how to use alien technology on her own. Scenes like that showed how smart and independent clara became.
I think I'm weird in that I loved Clara in Series 7, but from Series 8 I couldn't stand her.
This is a really late response! but I think people disliked Clara bc she just came across as generally unrelatable & Mary-Sue like. People love smart characters, however they wrote Clara in such a way that it just seemed that she was smart out of nowhere - sort of like a bad fanfic where the character is just incredible at everything.
We’re constantly told how important & special & interesting Clara is. They give her more power over the doctors story than any other companion by making her involved in literally every incarnation of him, inspiring him to become The Doctor & surviving being scattered across time & later made her effectively immortal with her own TARDIS.
All of this just made her TOO impossible for people to engage with her. Most like to be able to see a bit of themselves in the companions, as they are just humans for the most part who get to become brave & go on impossible adventures. Even Rose (who many people dislike) was at her core just an ordinary girl.
Oswin Oswald (Clara as Soufflé girl) was a smart character, flirty, witty & really well received by the audience. I think that’s partly bc we learnt about her backstory in her episode, like her sexuality, her first crush, her love for baking; we don’t know much about Clara outside of the doctor.
And they had great chemistry. They were great together. Jenna and Capaldi.
I never understood why people liked Rose so much, I didn´t feel the "love story", it was probably because the teenage audince just liked Tennant and Rose was the "anygirl" from round the corner?
Personly prefered Martha Jones over Rose. People usually hate her, that she only made eyes on the Doctor- but what else did Rose? I don´t get it. :)
@@cnoelle97 Ok but we don't really know anything about Clara at all. Clara I think is supposed to be this guardian angel type of person to the doctor, but she never really knows that she herself is supposed to be that person until some episode (I forgot the name) with the 11th doctor. It's sort of like river song. Clara is really just an idea of someone who indirectly saves the doctor sometimes. We never get to actually see the real Clara because it's basically an idea of someone spread out across different realities and times/worlds. We were never really meant to know anything about Clara because Clara isn't one person. If the Clara your talking about that people related to was the whole danny, teacher, lover arch thing then yes your right thats why she was well percieved by the audience. But that clara was the same clara that traveled with both the 11th and 12th doctor. After Danny died she became as (i dont know what other word to describe this as but) loveless, and logic over emotions based as the doctor.
Did yall know that originally clara from the snowmen was going to be his companion but moffat decided to literally THROW her.
It's not just that she goes down with absolute integrity, it's that it's not effortless, you can tell that she's making a huge effort to keep it together even when she's the one about to die
I don’t know why everyone hated her she was brilliant along with Martha, rose, Donna and bill
Edit: they where all brilliant in there own ways
Well that was sad and beautiful
Crispyyyyyyy
I really want to see the deleted scene where the Doctor brings in her body, and Rigsy goes to Coal Hill to tell everyone that she's dead
There’s a deleted scene?
What? You're joking! Stupid Steven Moffat for not showing us the scene!
@@shuaibasif2715 It's an entire episode actually.. and it's not deleted .. everyone can watch it.
@@Plantox where can I watch this?
Plantox where?
This would have been an amazing and powerful scene if it wasn't retconned out in the very next episode. After two and a half seasons of trying to out-Doctor the Doctor, Clara ends up being just a little too clever and dies in a way that the Doctor would die, but without the luxury of regeneration. It would have been a perfect way to end her character. And then... well, we all saw what happened after that.
Not the very next episode. Two episodes later. In between, we had the absolutely fantastic Heaven Sent! But yes, I agree, Hell Bent undoing this was lame.
It never really undid it though...she technicslly still dies there, its fixed, they just.....found a way to give her more time
Agreed. This scene actually got to me and I don't really get emotional about television shows anymore. And then when they found a way to bring her back, I just felt stupid.
There's no retcon here...
Let's be real, even though she still dies technically, the fact is that they left it open for her to return and that's a retcon in my eyes. This scene really gave a true sense of permanence and then when they introduced that timey wimey mechanic of her delaying her own death... It just undermined the gravitas of this scene even though TECHNICALLY this scene still happens.
Clara/Jenna is the only companion who could make me cry every time.
I started tearing up the second the Doctor starts making threats, because angry Capaldi could make me feel like I'm in trouble anywhere in the world with those glorious brows.
I was really quite impressed by how this was handled (before 'Hell Bent' happened) but I do have some gripes with the filmmaking here that I have had with Doctor Who a few times in recent years. I feel like they're just doing too much to make us feel. Clara walks out in slow motion, BIG musical score, she gets killed then screams in slow motion through several different angles like it's an episode of Total Wipeout. Sometimes less is more. I feel the scene would have worked better with no slow-mo and no music at all and sure as hell don't have the scream on action replay because it just became hilarious at that point. Which is a shame because the build up to it was FANTASTIC, especially Peter Capaldi's performance.
Uh, a major character dies, and it's a tragic death too. She is literally staring death straight in the face, and when a family member dies, it's a horribly big deal. Any less than what Moffat did in the scene would have been a disservice to the character.
But it was kind of overdone to the point of hilarity, and would have been much more effective without the OTT music and slo-mo action replays.
It's mainly the action replays though.
Believe it or not, I did not find this scene even slightly emotional. Just laughed my head off throughout her death
Atharv Sankholkar Well, to each his own I guess.
I WILL FOREVER AND ALWAYS LOVE JENNA COLEMAN AS CLARA
she is alive
+HattyxKillerz no clara is alive
Go watch the first or second season with Clara as a companion, if my memory serves me right, she placed herself in multiple points in the doctors timeline, there is no single Clara, there are multiple Clara's that the doctor runs into
watch the following episode... the doctor takes her out of time and she takes another tardls.
Clara is the Doctor's Impossible Girl, whose own existence spans the entirety of the Doctors, she guided the Hartnell Doctor to his tardis, and the Impossible Girl has died numerous times, yet is always found again at some point on the Doctor's path.
No matter how many times i watched this, i still cry about Clara. For me, this scene was one of the most emotional moments in doctor who.
Breaks my heart every time I see it. Fun facts: Jenna forgot to die the first time; got it right next time and, after the take was complete, laying in the street, popped her head up long enough to say "Dead!", and back down again. Just one reason why I love her.
Title: 'Clara's Death'
Me: yes, one of many
Well, i think, Clara really died - but: Cause she is existing in different Time streams, she is alive... somewhere, sometime. Don't forget: Clara is the impossible Girl
Her death is a fixed point. She may have been taken out of her timestream and traveled the universe but eventually she does go back to the Gallifrey, is reinserted back in her timestream and eventually dies. Remember time isn't strictly a line of cause to effect, when you have your own TARDIS, time is a ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. 1 second left could feel like an eternity.
I forgot
I was rewatching this episode this afternoon, and I almost flooded the world, this is the saddest thing that ever happened in my entire life! I don't understand why people hate Clara so much, she is the best! If wasn't for her, Doctor Who would have ended in 11th regeneration! She is the smartest and cleverly girl of the whole show! She is amazing and wonderful and deserve all the love of the world❤
**sorry, I am still very emotional**
I wonder how 11ths reaction would be if he had to watch his impossible girl die once again :((
That ball of barely held together emotion? He destroyed an entire fleet of ships just to rescue a friend who was alive and well. He would burn every world between him and those responsible to avenge her.
There'd be no Trap Street.
@@GeneralBulldog54 I think he would end up killing Ashlidr. (ik she's immortal, but he would attempt to do that and probably even succeed somehow)

That was so brutal for Doctor Who... I have been a fan for a very long time, seen every companion farewell, and this was so unexpected. I know she comes back it is sort of left open with her and 'me'... but she will ALWAYS come back here and DIE.
DEAD. DIE IN PAIN! IN AGONY!. At least Adric died in a quick explosion... this is soooo brutal!
And I love it...
Ikr. This scene really disturbed me. It's definitely one of the most horrific deaths Doctor Who history. I am glad they cut out the audio if her scream because that would have made it 100x worse.
Katrina Li apparently they cut a scene of the Doctor picking up and carrying her body in tears too.
“Let me be brave.”
Wow, that hits hard... in hard times and even approaching my own death someday, I hope to remember those words.
"die with whoever comes after me, you do not leave me!"
oh clara....
Capaldi makes a single face and its the most heartbroken I’ve ever seen the Doctor portrayed
This is probably one of my favourite scenes from the entire show along with the ending of Heaven Sent. It's a shame that so many people have mixed feeling about Clara and the 13th Doctor's run. In my opinion moments like this more than make up for it. It's tragic, dark, cinematic, poetic and beautiful all at the same time. Peter Capaldi's reaction throughout this scene was incredible.
Reminds me of Ashildr's speech from Hell Bent later in the season.
"She died, Doctor. Clara died billions of years ago. She died for who she was and who she loved. She fell where she stood. It was sad, and it was beautiful. And it is over. We have no right to change who she was. "
Facts
What does 13 have to do with this...good points though
Do you mean the 12th Doctor?
Ashildr shouldn't have played with forces she had no real power over...
I really hope she'll make some kind of cameo in season 10
NO
I just hope she DOESN'T do a cameo. (Nothing against Jenna 😁)
Hell no, she is annoying.
I hope not
you know you can report all the people that says no. And we won't be able to see them :)
I don't know why people hate Jenna so much she was amazing and I'm so sad she's gone
I don't hate her, I more hate her storyline in hell bent
We don't all hate her, it's just some of us feel this departure, which was done very well, was ruined by an overly long and plot-hole ridden departure in the series finale
I think it was more about the Doctor. When he lost Amy and Rory, he could not go back and rescue them despite how badly he wanted to. Trying to save Clara was about all him, not Clara. She was ready to die. The Doctor wasn't ready.
No one hated Jenna Coleman personally, it was the character she played. Same thing with Rose really - I hate her guts, but Billie Piper herself was freaking awesome.
I don't hate her, I hate her character after season 8. She was fine until Last Christmas, great during season 7. After her romance plot ended she just was kind of there.
Not gonna lie, i had a really hard time warming up to Clara, but this scene totally broke my heart.
“Face the Raven” is one of Murray Gold’s songs that are just SO heartbreaking, along with “Doomsday”, “The Rueful Fate of Donna Noble”, “Vale Decem” and many others. I tear up every time I hear them. It doesn’t help that “Face the Raven” also includes some sad refrains of “Clara’s Theme”.
I love how she wasn't afraid of getting killed. Not even a tiny bit. But she was scared for her friend, how will he go through all that. I remember I was telling myself "There is enough time before the episode ends. Maybe they save her" and then it hit me and she will actually die and I said ,,If they save her now after all these emotions then I'll be disappointed".
Which did effectively happen. I know Clara will always die in that alley, but knowing that she could be gallivanting around in another TARDIS for millennia, putting off the inevitable, does rather undercut the emotional impact of this scene.
Would have been a touching end. But once again, a death is reversed by a technicality.
No it's not reversed. She does die but it takes her a while to get round to it.
the point of THIS death is ruined by her living out her life. The whole point is that her life was brought to an early end because of her compassion and the whole thing could have been avoided. Me might as well have just removed the death warrant and she lived out her life at home.
TheMoonRover So then it is reversed. They don't just leave her dead here.
more her arrogance than her compassion
rather than trusting the doctor or deferring to his judgment she tried so show off and it backfired horribly
Antony D'Andrea Her death is not reversed, she still dies this way there is no change in that.
Jena Coleman is a babe!
I remember a few years ago at an Armageddon Expo Jena coleman was one of the guests and one of the interesting things she mentioned was the height difference between her and Peter Capaldi (She's 5' 1" tall) which could make scenes where they were standing close together awkward to film. She said that often they had a box for her to stand on to make the filming these scenes less awkward.
i like Clara because she isn't the " don't have a clue about what's happening 99% of the time/ love sick suffering puppy eyes don't tell him I love him/ scary save me doctor" kind of companion... and I don't think she what's to be the Dr... she just more determined and smart that must of the companions. she not my favorite or second fav but I think she is unfairly hatted by many.... maybe because she is like the dr in some ways and that's a "no-no" for a companion in the eyes of many
It's mostly because when she was with 11, she was cocky and had a giant ego that was inflated by him. When she was with 12 though, they were an amazing duo
Obviously that’s a “no-no”. The show wasn’t about the Doctor anymore, it was about Clara. How clever she is, how important she is, blah blah blah. It would be like having Watson one-upping Sherlock all the time.
They put too many cooks in the kitchen and it was awful.
@@dearthofdoohickeys4703 it was about the doctor with a partner that finally wasn't stupid..
radka slebodnikova Rose wasn’t stupid. Martha wasn’t stupid. Donna was not stupid. Amy wasn’t stupid either. So what on earth are you even talking about? If you think someone has to be as clever as Clara was to “not be stupid” then I’m better off arguing with a sea urchin.
@@dearthofdoohickeys4703 Martha wasn't stupid but naive, Rose well, are we going to talk about her? Her character was about being pretty and perky that's it. I liked Donna too, she was smart in my opinion.
Amy had her moments, Rory most of the times haven't.
I'm not saying they must be something or must not be something, this is totally on the creators of the show.
I just loved clara because she was finally someone that was closer to doctor mentally than anybody else.
He was her mentor, nothing else fits better I suppose. Don't know why are you so offended by my comment though. Maybe the wording stupid isn't exact, but rather very mediocre intelligence would do. But that would also offend someone...
Out of all the Companions the Dr had, Clara was probably the Best!!! Smart, Loyal, Kept the Dr in check. Shame. But I would have to say it was an Honorable Death.

Moffatt does that *far* too much. Basically noone important has ever died on his watch and not come back somehow.
😭😭😭 Why am I watching this before watching season 9?
Out of curiosity perhaps? They say curiosity killed the cat.
That was me when I first saw this xD
To be honest, I think that everyone knew this was coming, there was a leak or something. I reckon that everything's going to be unleaky (nice word 😅) under Chibnall, having seen Broadchurch
what is it with making people immortal? Capitan Jack, Ashildr/Me and now Clara? This was a sad ending, but when people die they really should STAY DEAD! Unlike rory
Clara isn't immortal. She's still going to die, there's no stopping it. She's just delaying it at the end of Hell Bent.
CordlessJet good point, her story just feels incomplete to me
It's Steven Moffat, what were you expecting ? A clear end to a story?

My God, I still get the feels when I watch this! When I saw Face The Raven for the first time, it was just mindblowing, and I cried for a while after Clara's death. Absolutely brilliant!!
What a perfect and great ending for a companion I didn't even like that much. I'm so glad Moffat didn't ruin this with a stupid cop out later!

Why Moffat!?
Re-watching this after seeing how the 12th doctor ended that line of Clara's "In the end, everyone does this alone." stings even more.
"You dont be a Warrior"
said by The woman who saw Warrior and the Doctor at the Same time
Brilliant
I thought I was over this. I'm not over this.
This is the saddest death on this show, simply because of how she knew she had to walk to her death. Amy went back knowing she would see Rory and live her life (but their departures were HORRIBLY SAD too), but Clara had to say goodbye knowing she was going to die in just a few moments.
I absolutely love Clara, I don't get all the hate.
I love her so much 💕😭. Such an underrated death, she was by far the best companion 😞❤
It REALLY didn't get any better than this - and probably never will again.
11th/12th & Clara Oswald are just like 3th/4th & Sarah Jane Smith, and i love it.
The view count is equal to as many tears I shed every time I watch this
Peters acting in this scene was impeccable. Really amazing.
The best doctor companion ever,
There needs to be more with her conviction
I remember watching the first broadcast where you hear her screaming and crying my eyes out...
That scream was painful to hear and so sad. I loved 12's reaction too.
do you know where i can find the scene with the screaming part?
When she walks out the door alone and faces death alone...powerful. A brave end to one of the best companions.
I don’t know why everyone hates Clara, she loved the doctor so much and had so much loyalty she always looked after him. It was so sad when she left, she out everyone before herself
clara: promise me..
clara 5 seconds later: I’m not asking for a promise.
:-/
Oh rıght, so what should Clara does? Doctor forget your promıse and go get to revenge of my death.
Because ı say now I'm not asking for a promise.
@@huseyinfurkantasc104 It's a joke relax dude
To be fair she was not asking for a promise, she ordering a promise
Hey listen she was about to die, so what if she made a few mistakes in her speech 😂
The soundtrack on this stands out so much since Segun's stuff. I didn't think that I would notice it really, but it is so moving.
I miss the old days when a character just went back home.
The dramatic companion deaths got old fast.
Afterfauve2021 IMO I love the companion deaths. It gives the doctor a bigger storyline and much more trauma
If it happens too often it's no longer a shock. When Adric died it was the first time in 20 years since a companion died.
To be fair there were some pretty dramatic, terrible deaths back in the old days too... (Somebody please join me in mourning Sara Kingdom and Katarina, along with the obvious Adric). But I agree -- not every companion leaving needs to be a big sad thing. Ian and Barbara found their way home, Steven stayed behind to lead a colony to equality, Jo found love, and so on and so forth.
I like New Who too, but I think the only companion who didn't have a tragic ending was Martha, who left of her own accord but whose awesome and enjoyable characterization was entirely overshadowed by the annoyingly increasing unrequited love bit with the Tenth. Even though Bill (or a version of her, anyway) got her happy ending technically, she also technically still died. And now we've got a TARDIS with three companions instead of one-with-a-secondary-one-sometimes as New Who likes to do, so let's hope Chibnall doesn't take the "kill them all" route or something lmfao
Technically everyone before Clara didn't die but they were very dramatic still
As far as I am aware, only Adric died horribly in Classic-Who. In New Who, Amy and Rory were sent back in time, but lived out their lives happily. Rose is trapped in another dimension with her parents. Martha went home. As far as new companions go, Clara is the only one to die properly.
That soundtrack... Man I won't never forget :(
0:55 - As soon as she goes to hug him her theme kicks in and hits me right in the gut.
Honestly I couldn’t even imagine what is going through Clara’s mind, she was so certain that her or the doctor would find a way out of this and they didn’t and she is just accepting she has to die. She knows she’s going to die and doesn’t have any idea that the doctor can save her. Like it’s just heartbreaking and terrifying for her that she realizes her life is done and she has to accept it and she can’t do anything about it
gooood the MUSIC!!! i'm going to miss murray gold so much- this score is absolutely beautiful.
It’s a brave thing knowing your death is coming And choosing to face it instead of running
