Clara and the TARDIS was a Doctor Who mini-episode made exclusively for the series 7 DVD and Blu-ray box sets. It does not feature the Doctor, but rather focuses on Clara Oswald and her relationship with the TARDIS.

Plot

Clara Oswald gets into an argument with the TARDIS after the TARDIS plays a practical joke on her in the shower and then makes her bedroom disappear. After revealing to Clara that she is far from being the first girl the Doctor has "brought home", the TARDIS plays another trick on Clara that has her seeing double, and triple, and quadruple...

  • Once again, the Doctor is nowhere to be found as his companion beds down for the night. (TV: Bad Night)

Story notes

  • This is the first and, to date, only televised story set entirely within the TARDIS in which the Doctor does not appear in any form.
  • Erroneously described as a behind-the-scenes featurette in some pre-release press coverage of the box set.
