Spoiler:Yup; I think most people did
I thought this was Jenna's last episode.
Spoiler:Supposedly it almost was. Word is that Clara was going to die an old woman after the Doctor got the dream crab off of her, and that Shona would have become his next companion in the "Magician's Apprentice," but Jenna Coleman changed her mind while they were filming (or shortly before), and the ending was rewritten and reshot.
Spoiler:Clearly we're going to see more of Shona, what with that mysterious ticking off "forgive Dave" moment. If it's true that she was originally supposed to go on to be the next companion, hopefully with Jenna returning, all plans for that have been scrapped and not just delayed. Definitely don't want to see her replace Clara
Spoiler:I loved the Alien reference and how Shona's to-do list had "Alien DVD" on top.
I really enjoyed the special. Nick Frost was awesome as Santa. Glad Clara's staying a bit longer aswell but I do hope they won't keep her to the point of it becoming The Clara Oswald Show like what happened with Amy Pond in her final season.

I thought it was just ok. My theory is that the ending where Clara is in her 70s-80s was suppose to be the real ending until Jenna Coleman decided she was going to stay on the show, so they just filmed another ending where she's not old and the two of them go off together again.
I was excited to learn that the guy who did the episode posters last series is doing them again (Stuart Manning?):
