::::Okay, but that presents us with a different problem - How exactly did she survive being exposed to the time vortex so long?

:::::It is specifically stated in the episode that the TaRDiS extended its shields to protect Clara. In the case of Jack the TaRDiS was actively trying to avoid him and was at best trying to throw him off and at worst possibly trying to kill him. It is possible though that she knew Jack would not die so she did not even bother trying to protect him. As for Clara it is likely that the TaRDiS had grown found of her by this point , having saved the Doctor and all, or that she at least did not want Clara's death to be at her hands. Either way the TaRDiS protected Clara from the time vortex. It also is likely that she did not spend all that long in the vortex. Vortex travel is not instant but from the point of view of passengers a point to point trip takes a mater of minutes. The likely reason the TaRDiS arrived late was likely due to getting her temporal coordinates thrown off by having to put up shields to protect Clara or maybe her mass throwing off balance. Over the whole span of space and time missing your stop by just the tiniest fraction could easily mean hundreds of years. -- [[User:Fox Landale|Fox Landale]] [[User talk:Fox Landale|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 13:15, February 11, 2014 (UTC) | |||
