It happened. Tonight was the night where avid Doctor Who fans paid an emotional goodbye to the longest-serving assistant since the show was rebooted in 2005, Clara Oswald.
The Doctor, their old friend Rigsy and Clara – who is played by Jenna Coleman – found themselves in a magical alien world, hidden on a street in the heart of London.
Twitter were busy preparing themselves for the inevitable.
Sheltered within the world were some of the most fearsome creatures of the universe, including Ashildr – played by Maisie Williams.
Ashildr ironically guaranteed Clara’s safety as they arrived, but Twitter wasn’t having any of it.
Clara selflessly accepted a death sentence which originally hung over Rigsy’s head and the episode ended with her incredibly difficult to watch death.
Twitter was in bits.
