Doctor Who: Jenna Coleman 'planned to quit' last year
From the 'we knew what was going on' department:
Jenna Coleman planned to quit last year
Steven Moffat has confirmed to Doctor Who magazine that she had asked to be written out.
"That was her last episode," he said. "Then she asked me if she could be in [the] Christmas [episode]. So I said, 'OK, I'll write you out in Christmas.'"
"She came to the read through and did the 'write out' version - and again changed her mind."
"But the truth is I never wanted her to go. And with Last Christmas, I'd already written the alternative version where she stayed, and I preferred that version.
"Frankly, I didn't want to lose her. She's an amazing actress, and she never stops working to make Clara better.
"I was very happy to go the extra mile to make sure we could keep her."

Lol. I have been reading about people blythely slagging her off but she has grown on me. Well not literally, that would be silly but as a character I am liking Clara. I would have liked more Doctor Who than Clara Who but I am hopeful for Series 9.

I'm a little surprised this was only with the Christmas special. There were a couple of points in the last season where it looked like she was leaving, only to be back in an apparently "nah, just kidding" kind of way.
