[[Ohila]] and the [[Sisterhood of Karn]] also reappeared, wherein Ohila was hinted to have a greater personal history with the Doctor that may have gone back to his earlier days. [[Ashildr]] made another appearance as well, having persisted to the final moments of time. She eventually ended up in possession of a [[TARDIS]] which the Doctor stole, and began travelling with Clara, who was not ready to return to Gallifrey and face her end.

''Hell Bent'' ended up being full circle for both the Doctor and Clara. For the Doctor, he was once again running away in his TARDIS. For Clara, she was now time-travelling again, aboard a stolen TARDIS with an original [[TARDIS control room|control room]] layout similar to the one which the [[First Doctor]] stole, with Ashildr, another long-lived being, as her companion. They were unable to get the [[chameleon circuit]] on this TARDIS working properly, leaving its exterior stuck in the form of an [[American]] diner which the Doctor had visited in ''[[The Impossible Astronaut (TV story)|The Impossible Astronaut]]''. The story also saw the return of the [[sonic screwdriver]], a brand new model to replace the Sonic Screwdriver seen since it's debut in 2010.

This story depicted the Doctor reaching his limit, seeing him break his own moral codes, step away from being the Doctor and unleash his fury on the Time Lords in an attempt to save his companion's life, which came with the price of losing his memories of Clara as atonement for what he had done. Additionally, several facts about his past before fleeing Gallifrey and prophecies of the Hybrid were revealed, though who or what the Hybrid was remained uncertain.

At one point in the episode Rassilon, curiously, asks the Doctor how many regenerations he had been given, strongly implying that Rasslion either had no idea about the Doctor having been given a brand new regeneration cycle until he found out himself or had no say in the decision to save the Doctor.
