I have only managed to half watch the latest series of Doctor Who while other Chaos is going on around me. But..
I think Clara is the Doctor’s first wife/lover. The mother of his daughter, grandmother to Susan. This explains why she keeps appearing as a “nanny”. She looks after children to replace the one she has lost.
In the Episode “Hide” he gave a long speech about the two “monsters” who were actually lovers separated in time and space, calling out to each other. All while he had his arm around Clara.
And she is very Timelord like in her speech and mannerisms.Though she obviously can’t remember being a Timelord.
Also, it is well documented that the Doctor is running away from something – we do not not why – or why he left Gallifrey. And Clara keeps saying?
“Run, you clever boy.”
So I think that for some reason he was forced to run leaving behind Clara and fleeing with his granddaughter.
Could be the “revelation in the 50th anniversary episode?”
Well that wa a surprise!

I also think Clara has some relationship to Susan! Can’t wait to find out.

Oooh, you could be right! I’m finding her rather annoying, though.
