Jenna Coleman has just confirmed that she is indeed returning to the BBC show to reprise her role at Clara Oswald.
Fans of the series can definitely expect The Doctor's assistant in the upcoming series despite rumors circulating that Coleman was set to exit the show after they aired their Christmas special.
Coleman has been part of the series since 2012 and has starred opposite famed Doctor Who actors Matt Smith, who was then replaced by the latest Doctor, Peter Capaldi.
The actress weighs in her role on the show as someone who serves to be essential to character relationships.
"There is so much more to do," Coleman said in an interview with BBC. "I think they've finally just reached a point where they really understand each other.
"The arrival of the 12th Doctor has just kind of dropped this whole bombshell and allowed the dynamic to totally change, so I think just when Clara was feeling more comfortable in the relationship, it has suddenly thrown something new up."
