      I think its because they are both the Doctor who were healing. 11 was the Doctor who was the one who was healing and learning to let go of the War and everything he had to do, still angry but he was learning to let go. Ncuti's Doctor is like he said hes the one who IS healed cause 14 finally went to therapy for all the trauma of the past and the Horrifying shit they went thorough as 12/13. It like the 5 stages of grief out of order 9: denial, 10: anger, 11:acceptance, 12: barging, with 13: depression with her life almost starting a new round.

    27:24 I keep thinking about 15's wording there. He says, "I'm fine because you fix yourself. We're Time Lords. We're doing rehab out of order." He said it like he is somehow already benefitting from the work that 14 is going to do to fix himself.
    They want to build this Whoniverse thing. There are going to be spinoffs. Also, 14 has already travelled a bit since he bigenerated. He apparently took Rose to Mars and took Mel to Gilded Age New York. I am completely fine if they just leave 14 where he is. It is a wonderful happy ending.
    But they may also be setting up for some kind of spinoff (even if it's just the occasional movie or special) where he confronts and works through the grief and trauma of his past. Maybe by occasionally travelling for that purpose. Could be a lovely way to revisit some of the characters he went through those experiences with.
    Then, when he's had a life (and Tenant is done with the role), maybe he merges back into 15 or whoever the current Doctor is at the time. So they benefit from that rehab and the total consciousness of the Doctor eventually ends up back together. Could be interesting.

      It also works for the reboot idea, all the baggage and trauma of 60 years stays with 14 as he works through it with some self healing and therapy, which as a result because 15 is from the future, he gets all that healing pre-set and ready to go. It allows new international viewers to watch without having to NEED 60 years of stories worth of lore. So if a viewer wants they can stop and retire with 14 or go on and continue with 15.
      It also parallels real life a little, RTD left when he did because of his sick and disabled husband, who needed alot of care and he didn't want to go but did because his husband needed him, Tennant left with him because they were a pair of friends. RTD loves the show still and I think part of him had the Bi-generation because it is like if he had stayed and his husband was still alive too.

      You dismiss all of us who fail to see this like you, and assume you're right--it's Godawful--instead of realizing that "good" is a pretty subjective analysis, and "Godawful" even more subjective. Enough people--ordinary, heterosexual, independent-minded people like me--like it to suggest it's not just a matter of brainwashed thinking. It's people enjoying different directions, that's all.

    I know some people thing Ncuti was overshadowed in his own premiere but I couldnt disagree more we usually get a line or so from a new doctor and half to wait to see where the pick up is and who they are but we already get SO much characterization for 15. He's happy go lucky, sassy (Honestly im getting such Eccleston vibes and im so for it all) and all too excited to get out and see the world again and I cant wait for what he has coming up next

      I think he had a fantastic premiere, better than Capaldi's or Jodie's. I think having Tennant around at the same time actually helped, because it showed that Ncuti could stand toe to toe with someone considered great already, and he hasn't even fully settled into the role yet. I'm really looking forward to the next season.

      It's set up so that if the viewers who hate it want, they can leave and "retire" like 14 does, whilst people who are happy continue with 15. Basically the reboot is the best of both worlds. They don't want to require 60 years of knowledge for international viewers to catch up with for the new series so this way all the baggage is wrapped up with 14 and 15 from the future as a result is all fixed up and basically becomes the fun loving Doctor from the very old days.

      His trauma goes all the way back to the old series. He dealt with a lot in his 14 versions(well 15) and never took time to recover or deal with it all. So this means 15 is starting again, chilled refreshed. Having left all bad memories with 14. That's also why the next series is season 1.

    When I discovered Doctor Who for the first time, rifling through a character guide in a bookstore, one of the first characters that caught my eye was the Celestial Toymaker, and while other enemies got reintroduced in the modern era, I wondered when would be his turn. Finally, he is here, and he's spectacular! The Spice Girls dance was my favourite scene, I was like " I know it's a dramatic moment where the villain demonstrates his power, but I can't stop clapping to the rythm".
    Also, I CAN'T BELIEVE I didn't make a Doctor Horrible connection, but in my defense, I never watched the full video, only some of the songs.
    ADDENDUM: I also liked how the Doctor faced TM and told him "how are you so small?". It's both an "up yours, mate" moment and the go-to approach of the Doc to most of his enemies, from the Sycorax to the Master: "you don't have to do this, we can find another way", then the scoff from the baddie, then our favorite Time Lord reminding everyone why so many planets, especially Earth, have not become space dust: because the Doctor was there.

    It’s crazy how 10/14 went from having the most tragic life to possibly the best possible and happiest one of all of the Doctor’s incarnations. Definitely reframes his first “I don’t wanna go” regeneration scene. Not mad at all.
    It’s also interesting how ten years ago in the 50th special, he was the young and naive one compared to 11, now he makes 11 look like a baby in comparison having been through three whole lifetimes before his return.

    The way I understand it is that eventually 14 (or "Doctor Noble" as I have decided to call him because as happy as I am to have tennant back I dont think he should get 2 numbers lol) will regenerate again and be pulled back into the bigeneration. It's not a duplication, it's just like... timey wimey therapy so that RTD doesn't have to rehash the doctor being super traumatised in his second era. Which is fair enough, giving the Doctor time war trauma was his big innovation back in 2005 and just doing it over again would be a bit old hat.

      That and this way the reboot means international viewers tuning in for the first time won't require 60 years of backstory just to get an idea of what is going on at the start. Multi-Doctor stuff will probably have a pin put into it until it picks up more and those new viewers find time to see older stories and Doctor's.

    I can't be the only one that got massive 'Flash Gordon' vibes from that moment when the tooth was picked up can I? The hand picking it up, the "ding" then people laughing. That's exactly what happened at the end of the movie. A gloved hand picked it up then a ding came from the bling ring that used to belong to Ming followed by the sound of someone, presumably Ming (although the guy who played Klytus said it was him as he was supposed to be the bad guy in a potential sequel, any day now...) laughing in a somewhat maniacal fashion.

    Absolutely loved this and your reaction to it. Knew the fakeout would get you. They have the whole build up, the music, the final phrase, feeling the mavity of 9-14's whole history, it was done perfectly and if it had been a normal regeneration it would have been ok. Only to completely bamboozle us in the best way possible. And giving us a happy end, also great social commentary that even tho it wasn't subtle, didn't overstay its welcome in the plot. It was just the setting.
    Also just loved that music number. Puts Q's mariachis to shame :D

    Ive seen two theories about the two doctors.
    1. 14 goes on separately and becomes the Curator from Day of The Doctor.
    2. Bigeneration was actually his future self being plucked out of time. When 14 is done he will regenerate into 15 and be plucked back to this point, closing the loop and leaving only 1 Doctor again.

    I have a fan theory. Ncuti Gatwa is not the 15th Doctor, he is the First Doctor. The original Doctor that we all know and love has retired to live the quiet life. The bi-generation created a whole new person that is The Doctor, but still fresh and without the trauma of the past weighing down his soul. This makes him the “First” in a whole new line of Doctors yet to come.

      Indeed - the fifth Doctor 4-part episode, 'Earthshock' from 1982. The Doctor can't save Adric because it is part of an integral fixed point in time (The Cretacous extinction event) which he is forbidden to interfere with. It is clearly an important event in the Doctor's life as it is referenced a fair bit, most recently in the 2022 'The Power of the Doctor' special episode.

    I for one am looking forward to the direction they take the Doctor now. RTD really set up the character as traumatized by his past, and the Doctor just kept getting heavier with all the world n universe shaking events and lost friends (and lost loves). The stuff they set up with 13 was probably some of the biggest yet. An entire history stolen from her, half the universe killed just to get rid of her. And the life sucking cherry on top, she was too damaged and hurt to even try for more with Yaz, even though she clearly wanted to. I love that RTD has decided that the character needs to change, needs to heal from the emotional rollercoaster he set the character on.
