The trope is being misapplied to this work. Although there is a reincarnation cycle, it's not a method of bringing characters back and if they die, they die. Only on one occasion have dead characters come back - as ghosts, so they've stayed dead, but functioned as a ghost instead of a living being; that doesn't seem to be the spirit of this trope.

** Amy and Rory have been given so many ''on screen'' [[DisneyDeath "deaths"]] and actual deaths that it became a RunningGag for them (quoth Rory in "Night Terrors": "We're dead! Again!"). [[ButtMonkey Poor Rory]] is even called "the man who dies and dies again" by the Silence; it's considered to be ''his'' RunningGag, but really, everyone gets in on the action. Newcomer Clara is fitting right in so far: she's appeared twice, died both times, and will be back.
*** In "The Bells of St. John," Clara technically died twice, although one was incomplete and they're both fairly debatable as "deaths." But if you count them both, that leaves her with four "deaths" in three episodes. And now a fifth - a future version of her died in "Journey To The Centre of the TARDIS", just 4 episodes later, though there's a ResetButton. Not even Rory can match that. Plus, with Rory there's always a ResetButton or some other explanation; Clara has ''really'' died twice in two different time periods, and even The Doctor has no idea what's happening.
