I want her to stay forever – I’m so sad that she’s going! Can she at least get to watch The Clangers at some point? I think she’d pull that hark back to Delgado off brilliantly!

I don’t care what Michelle wants. I want her to stay for a good few years longer 😛 By far the best character in Capaldi era Who. Yes, I agree with you re their friendship. I do believe that even as Missy was saying words to try and save her life, she still meant them to some degree.

And putting Clara inside the Dalek was so, *so* clever. The perfect way to show The Doctor what she meant in that statement. Personally, I don’t want Missy locked up. I want to marry her! 🙂

Poor Bill is never going to have a love life while The Doctor’s around, is she!

I’ve always loved the relationship between The Doctor and The Master; I’m fairly sure that neither could survive without the other. They may be on opposing sides, but they are still the same children who were best friends from long before they had to gaze into the vortex, and I think they will always love each other, regardless of anything and everything. I’m absolutely gutted that Michelle’s leaving – she’s been the best since Delgado (RIP) – but she said it well: her friends are leaving; there’s no reason for her to stay (but if she thinks I’m not going to cry buckets when I know it’s her final scene she can think again).

Also the concept of ‘friendship’ has been reoccurring in relation to Missy. She claims her plan in the s8 finale happened because ‘I just want my friend back,’ and she says she brought Clara to The Doctor so he would see ‘the enemy within the friend, the friend within the enemy.’ What’s great about Michelle is that she is so ambiguous in how she plays these aspects of the role. Then Missy does the next heinous thing and you just want her locked up. She is by far the most complex version of The Master we’ve had in years.
