Clara Oswald's gran

Clara's gran attended a family Christmas dinner in 2013 with Clara Oswald, her son Dave, and Linda. Despite her old age, she perked up upon seeing the Eleventh Doctor naked, and was very interested in taking him up on his suggestion to play Twister. She was disappointed with the more serious Christmas crackers that Linda had brought, preferring ones with jokes. The Doctor would later express a similar opinion.

She had been married, but her husband had apparently passed away some time previously. Dave asked her to tell how she had met him, a story apparently involving a pigeon. Instead, Clara's gran told a different story, about seeing him standing there so long ago and never wanting him to change. She absent-mindedly played with her ring while doing so, and sadly smiled. After this, she received a tearful hug from Clara; her story reminded Clara of how she felt about the Doctor. (TV: The Time of the Doctor)
