Jenna Coleman said: "It's wonderful. I get a whole other series of stories with the Doctor and I couldn't walk away with the story being unresolved."

She added: "There is so much more to do. I think they've finally just reached a point where they really understand each other."

Peter Capaldi is pleased that his companion is sticking around for another series.
