For long time there had been huge debate on whether [[Jenna Coleman]] would leave or stay after ''Last Christmas'', but, after speaking at a press launch for the Christmas special at London's BFI earlier in December, Jenna revealed: "It's wonderful – I've got another series of stories with the Doctor." She added, "I couldn't walk away with the story being unresolved and there's so much more to do – I think they've finally just reached a point where they really understand each other!" and executive producer [[Steven Moffat]] confirmed this: "Jenna is obviously in all of the next series.

Jenna also hinted at what to expect in series 9: "Just when Clara was feeling more comfortable in the relationship, it's thrown something totally new up."<ref>http://www.cultbox.co.uk/news/headlines/jenna-coleman-confirmed-to-return-for-all-of-season-9</ref> | For long time there had been huge debate on whether [[Jenna Coleman]] would leave or stay after ''Last Christmas'', but, after speaking at a press launch for the Christmas special at London's BFI earlier in December, Jenna revealed: "It's wonderful – I've got another series of stories with the Doctor."
