Not a fan of Clara either but she was easy on the eyes, and I could at least watch her without suspecting that some blue-haired harpy with an alphabet agenda was behind her casting.

I really liked Clara in her first appearance as a Victorian nanny. They should have just kept her that way and let her be a Victorian nanny who becomes a companion. No mystery back story of Clara echoes following the Doctor through time, just a regular woman from a different era being a companion. And bringing an interesting different perspective to their adventures than the usual early twenty first century companion.

Little point having a character from anything other than current year as they must have the correct opinions and attitudes, so Victorian Clara would just have been C21 Clara with strained RP accent, long skirts and hat until the Doctor took her to a shopping mall and updated her fashion and she forgot all about her Victorian sensibilities and attitudes.
