    Yes I agree!! Make Danny wear a bow tie when he meets Clara again. #bowtiesarecool

    I do think that Moffat may have heard about how poor old Jenna is not getting any storylines. Here is my theory:
    The Twelfth Doctor is constantly being called a magician, as he dresses like one, in the navy coat with red lining and his old mysterious face. Clara is known as his ‘carer’ or ‘assistant’ , or , some might say, ‘apprentice’. Maybe Clara is finally getting some sort of character!!

    …….either that or Lord Alan Sugar is the new Davros.

    To Anyone Who Knows A Youtuber By The Name Of Markiplier, I Have Thought Of A Crossover Title For And Episode With These 2 People. This Title Is Related To Markiplier’s Playthrough Of Surgeon Simulator 2013/14. “Doctor (Dark) Markiplier”.

    Also I Have Thought Of An Episode Title For When Danny Comes Back From The Afterlife (If Steven Decides Too Make This Decision). This Title Was Inspired By The Title “When Harry Met Sally”. “When Danny Met Clara, Agian”.

    What Do You Think Guys 😉

    To The Doctor Who Peter Capaldi New Series 9 Love From Richard Sherrat

    I know the titles don’t really mean much, but if I’m right, then this series could be a real turnaround from the Clara-driven Series 8.
    “The Magician’s Apprentice” sounds a lot like “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” from Fantasia (which itself is based on a German folk-tale). Now in the Disney classic, the apprentice in question screws up, badly. And the mentor needs to come along and fix things before seriously tightening the reins on his protege. Now if the parallel holds, that means Clara is going to make an enormous mistake, one which will decrease the Doctor’s trust in her judgment. Of course this is nothing but speculation, but I have high hopes for this episode.

    Thanks Yognot. I’ll Try To Take Every Idea That Comes Into Consideration So Thanks For The Ideas.

    I Think That: The Cybermen Are Loosing Control Of Upgrades Because They Start To Fail And So They Found Freddy Fazebear’s Pizza Place And Noticed That The Animatronics Had Built In Exo-Skeletons That Can Be Used As A New Type Of Upgrade, However They Don’t Know Of The Souls Of The Children Who Are Trapped Inside, And That Both The Doctor And Clara Were Victims Trapped Inside Their Own Suits But Without And Endoskeleton, Just Like Golden Freddy. Can The Doctor And Clara Escape The Souls Of Animatronics And Help The Children Find A Way Back Home Alive, Or Will The Cybermen Take The Chance And Downgrade Them To Manequins.

    What Do You Think I Should Add Guys 😉

    Maybe the Doctor will have two companions: Clara and one it could be one of these:
    Osgood (or a UNIT employee)
    An Alien companion
    Journey Blue
    Human on Earth (proberbly male)
    Or Danny (Moffet could get him out)

    The Tardis is always better with more than one companion.

    I bet Davros is out there…waiting…gathering his forces….. And will be killed off in the episode he makes his return appearance in.
