@Culfy: Ditto!!!
Clara was made much too important in the world of Doctor Who. There were times when she seemed to be more important! I thought Face the Raven was her best episode and so well done for a good bye to a character...then she came back in the worst possible way. Now she was so important that they had to wipe the Doctor's memory.
1-I will never believe that his memory can be completely wiped.
2-It also means that nobody from his past can really come back who has met or knew about Clara in any way. How stupid is that?
3-Stupid idea that was never properly explained.

They started to do the same with Ashildr. She was fine in her two episodes. That would have been enough unless she was a villain. I thought she would have been okay as a villain, then they brought her back and she participated in all that Hell Bent BS.
Face the Raven and Heaven Sent would have been a perfect ending to season 9 but they ruined it with Heaven Sent. So a Clara and Ashildr spinoff?...Just say NO!

Sure I'd be up for that but doubt it'd ever happen both jenna and Maisie have big careers Jenna's going to be doing a new series of Victoria soon and Maisie is doing game of thrones

I'm for-fun writing a story called "The Women" that involves Undead Clara, River Song, and Missy. I couldn't get Me's character right, so she's taking a nap in the TARDIS (Which, if I ever get published, would make sense, as I put in a lot of "naps" (the TARDIS once told [placeholder: clara] that the Doctor is twice as old as he thinks he is, but she never had the heart to count all the napping into his age))

I'm liking Me more, after reading the book published about her, so I might take a stab at editing and rewriting the parts with her.

I was never a Clara hater - indeed, I thought some of the objections to her were stupid - but she did leave and come back a little too often. So when she finally left in Face the Raven, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Bringing her back again after that was the second worst thing Moffat has done IMO. I would like to forget that period of the show.

So no, I don't want a spinoff, and I don't want to read fanfic about them.

So this is permanence, love's shattered pride.
What once was innocence, turned on its side.

It's one of those things that works better when left to the imagination, which is what Hell Bent did. That's more than enough.

That would be great, but scheduling a full series wouldn't be possible. I would love a single episode of their adventures, that would be possible.

I can't see them doing anything official but I could see them picking up a few quid doing something for Big Finish.

Yeah one day perhaps but isn't there something where they can't use anything past time of the doctor yet because of the liscence
