The rumours have been circulating for a while but now The Mirror is claiming it can confirm that Jenna-Louise Coleman is leaving The Doctor and the TARDIS at Christmas.
Just to Clara-fy (groan) this is still not confirmed by the BBC but it has been getting a lot of column space in the last week or two.
Doctor Who’s companion Jenna-Louise Coleman is set to leave the hit BBC show.
The Mirror’s source confirms that talks are currently happening and it is a mutual agreement: “She has been absolutely brilliant in the role, but everyone agrees it is a part that should change after a period.
“It’s important to keep the series moving and fast-paced, and the time is just starting to feel right and the feeling is that it could be a perfect Christmas storyline.”
As is always the case with Doctor Who, this is all to be taken with a pinch of salt until it’s either confirmed or you’re watching the episode, but sometimes there’s no smoke without fire.
What say you? Will you miss her or is this good news?

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
