Are they saving the War Minister for the future or was that a one-off line with no follow up?

Wait 'til you see the sonic trowel!

no, you're point was that Coleman would continue playing Clara next series, and there no indication of that whatsoever.

Thanks!

Those instances are not the character leaving. In Heaven Sent the Clara we saw was in the Doctor's imagination. In Hell Bent we did see Clara saved a heartbeat before dying, that is true, but when she and Ashildr left in the diner Tardis they were gone for good. In fact, Moffat said before this series began that…

Yes, I missed a few instances in my quick reply.

Oh, its still going to be a shitstorm but by laying the groundwork now Moffat is largely containing that reaction to the "things must always stay the way they were" crowd while most everyone else will accept it as a cool way for the show to progress.

You are not right. There has only been one announcement that Coleman would be leaving and that was that she was leaving at the end of this series. This series has ended and she is now gone.

No, it was Moffat prepping everyone that, yes, someday the Doctor will regenerate and it won't be as a white male. He has been methodically building up that possibility over several years. First was the mention of the Corsair, then it was the Master returning as Missy, now we have an on-screen regeneration where a…

Have fun stewing in anger, I guess.

No I haven't. Have you? I mean, I guess having an irrational hatred of a TV showrunner is a thing some people do, but i don't find that sort of reaction particularly interesting or intelligent.

How would that work? Coleman is starring in another series and Moffat has said he is actively developing a new character. It is true that by letting Clara live Coleman can make future appearances, but there is no indication that she will be a regular member of the cast.

I wonder if she will be a recurring character, and if will be in her pre-end-of-the-universe time.

In every episode of what?

Wut?

Actually, Moffat has addressed this and it wasn't the answer you seem to want him to provide because you don't like him.

Yes, the Doctor modified the first aid device.

Ashildr was ruthless back in the day, but after 4.5 billion years she seems to have gained a lot of wisdom.

None of the things you mention are plot holes. Telling people they will find plot holes if they "really choose to look" for them is avoiding answering the question. What plot holes did this story have?

And yet you don't actually explain why it was not perfect other than some vague mention of plot holes.
