Cosmic, They actually didn't shoot Eccelstone's face for The War Doctor to 9th Doctor regeneration, although there is a fan made extended version of the regeneration
Magna Ryuu Yeah, I know that. Jim Vick is right, I meant a second or two of Eccleston before he becomes Tennant. Thanks anyway. I saw that fan made thing too, it wasn't bad.
I love that finally after 8 years we have a regeneration sequence for each doctor and in one case we have two for one of the doctors. This certainly raises the question of which life is the doctor currently on as he has technically regenerated 12 times including the aborted one in series 4. This would make smith's incarnation the 13 life. In theory he can't regenerate again and there is rumour that will be resolved in time of the doctor (Matt smith's final episode reportedly set on trenzalore). Tell you what Christmas can't come soon enough!
Moffat confirmed yesterday in the radio times that the meta crisis counts and matt is the 13th body after all. The conundrum is set to be solved at Christmas. I'm quite sad to see matt go as I think he is an incredible actor and one of the best doctors however I reckon capaldi should be decent as well.
legofreak86 Yeah, the Meta Crisis regeneration counts because even though it was "aborted", it used up the same amount of energy a full regeneration would have used, despite no change, therefore it depletes the remainder by one.
georgercop I don't think it's the regeneration energy that's used up, I think it's the incarnations themselves. Eight says in the TV Movie 'A Time Lord has thirteen lives', not thirteen regenerations.
+Alex Gabriel Yeah, thirteen lives, total of 12 regenerations. there has been 11 complete regenerations, plus the aborted meta-crisis regeneration, which used up the same amount of energy as a full regeneration, so counts as the twelfth
While I won't like it if Moffat reveals the hand regeneration counts as a full regeneration, I did love this video. Nice to finally see all the regenerations of the Doctor up to this point.
Okay. Since this is such a confusing matter, allow me to clarify, once and for all, the thirteen incarnations of the Doctor. 1. First Doctor: William Hartnell 1963-66. Died in The Tenth Planet, Part Four, as a result of energy drain, exhaustion, and old age. 2. Second Doctor: Patrick Troughton 1966-69. Last regularly appeared in The War Games, Part Ten. After the events of The War Games, the Second Doctor began working for the Time Lord Celestial Intervention Agency. In the comic The Night Walkers his Time Lord-enforced sentence was carried out, and was exiled on Earth, had his time travel knowledge taken away, and was forced to regenerate. 3. Third Doctor: Jon Pertwee 1970-74. Died in Planet of the Spiders, Part Six, as a result of radiation poisoning from the Metebelis crystal. 4. Fourth Doctor: Tom Baker 1974-1981. Died in Logopolis, Part Four, after falling off of a radio tower. A mysterious in-between incarnation of the Doctor called the Watcher merges with the Doctor, triggering his regeneration. 5. Fifth Doctor: Peter Davison 1981-1984. Died in The Caves of Androzani, Part Four, from Spectrox poisoning. 6. Sixth Doctor: Colin Baker 1984-1987. Last regularly appeared in Time and the Rani, Part One. In the novel Spiral Scratch it is shown that the Doctor sacrificed most of his life energy to trap a being called Lamprey into the Spiral Chamber. As he lay dying, the Rani attacked his TARDIS. His regeneration is shown in Time and the Rani, Part One. 7. Seventh Doctor: Sylvester McCoy 1987-89, 1996. Died in Doctor Who (TV Movie). After being shot by a street gang in 1999 San Fransisco, a team of surgeons attempted to operate on him. They ended up killing him, being unfamiliar with Gallifreyan biology. The anesthetic given to the Doctor before his death delayed the regeneration by a few hours, causing temporary amnesia upon regeneration. 8. Eighth Doctor: Paul McGann 1996, 2013. Died in The Night of the Doctor. He attempted to save the life of a young gunship pilot named Cass. However, upon her discovery of the Doctor being a Time Lord, she decided to kill herself by crashing into the planet Karn. The Doctor refused to leave her and died in the crash, without regenerating. Only after the Sisterhood of Karn temporarily brought him back to life and he drank one of their elixirs did his regeneration start. 9. War Doctor: John Hurt 2013. Died in The Day of the Doctor, from old age. [For those insisting that the War Doctor was before the First, you are wrong. The Time War took place in between the classic series and the new series. In the classic series the Time Lords and Gallifrey are alive and well.] 10. Ninth Doctor: Christopher Eccleston 2005. Died in The Parting of the Ways. The Doctor saved Rose Tyler's life by transferring the Time Vortex's energy from her into the TARDIS. This meant having to absorb the power himself, killing all of his cells and triggering his regeneration. 11. Tenth Doctor: David Tennant 2005-2008. Died in The Stolen Earth by being shot by a Dalek. During his regeneration he redirected his energy towards his severed hand, siphoning the energy into the hand. He only used enough energy to save his life and heal himself, then put the rest in the hand. [As an aside, the remaining regeneration energy in the hand that would have been used to change the Doctor's appearance became the Meta-Crisis Doctor.] 12. Tenth Doctor (again): David Tennant 2008-2010. Died in The End of Time, Part Two, by absorbing radiation energy to save the life of Wilfred Mott. He was able to hold back regeneration long enough to visit his old companions and then regenerated in his TARDIS. 13. Eleventh Doctor: Matt Smith 2010-13. Died in The Time of the Doctor from old age and exhausion. The Time Lords granted the Doctor a new regeneration cycle from the other side of the crack. Upon the Doctor's initial regeneration, his body shifted from one regeneration cycle to the next by 'resetting' his last body in the first cycle. Eventually, spontaneously, the Doctor regenerated into the first incarnation of the second cycle, the: 14. Twelfth Doctor: Peter Capaldi 2013- The incumbent Doctor. We currently do not know of the fourteenth regeneration's details. There you have it. 14 incarnations, 13 regenerations.
I disagree, I loved the randomness of the classic regeneration, anything could happen, and that seemed to reinforce the fact that regeneration is really quite random.
Bryn Walker Addendum: Regeneration for THE DOCTOR is random. The Doctor's just an idiot who doesn't know how to control his regeneration or fly his TARDIS. But he's a lovable idiot.
This is the only vid that seems to include the stolen earth regeneration so bravo and I hope you make a new regeneration vid to include matt's regeneration into capaldi :)
Ok I believe it was establish that time lords can only have 12 biological regenerations per cycle unless they are given more. Matt smith is technically the last doctor of the first cycle since David tennent s doctor used two full regeneration energy 1/2 on himself remainder into his hand. This explains partially explains why matt couldn't regenerate in Berlin because he ran out (as well as the poison negating it) but that was never mentioned...
***** I was. I loved his regeneration scene, and a brilliant end to my favourite Doctor. I was glad to see that, after following his 10 seasons on audio, the rest of the world saw how great he truly was with Night of the Doctor. And that was just 6 minutes! :D
James Aggas That's why I was pleased to see him back, knowing that, through the audiobooks, McGann had developed a character and a behaviour for his Doctor. It was all more updated than when he took on the role in 1996.
I sadly despise the idea that he used up a regeneration during the meta-crisis. Sadly, we'll see what happens during the Christmas special, but I expect it'll stand. :(
I agree, I have never been a fan of the meta crisis being counted as a full regeneration. I have a feeling that that is probably how Moffat will get around the limit this time what with it being far too soon to find Gallifrey and be rewarded by the High Council. That, or this rumored "Person from the Doctor's Past" is another renegade Time Lord (possibly Romana) who does something to impel extra regeneration ability (after all it has never been clear whether the limit was an imposed social control or a genetic imperative).
I don't understand how it couldn't count? If it didn't count, then he could just keep chopping off hands and have a permanent "Get out of regen free card". If it's counted it means that it's not a cop out and it had consequences by using up a full regeneration.
Yeah man,the whole set from the first to latest. I can't wait to see how Matt's doctor regenerates into peter's doctor. Yet another epic event about to happen of course.
That part I can't believe though,the weeping angels back yet again? Man,and back then I thought they were just a flash in the pan,but man I see they're much more than that these days.
Guys, Matt Smith was the 11th Doctor, but the 13th Incarnation (War Doctor and Human Clone) Capaldi is the 12th Doctor, with 11 more regenerations. The numbering stays the same.
so this is what i was looking for but i think you should of cut the regen sceans back a lil bit so we could see the faces of the witch doctor was regenirating
He's regenerated 12 times, has had 12 bodies, but is the 11th doctor. No regeneration's left as he used 2 in one life but i don't think that should count because he didn't change his body, so it wasn't a full regeneration
Actually, if Matt Smith is the Doctor's last regeneration, it would explain why David is so defiant and frightened about regenerating. He knows if he regenerates, then he has no more second chances after that, and one step away from his final death.
Well, firstly, Shalka isn't canonical, and we know he has more regenerations now. But he had run out after David, which was said in "Time of the Doctor."
in the sarah jane adventures he said he could regenerate 500 something times look it up but know its only 12 for some reason. Maybe its costing the bbc cash who knows but i hope they dont stop the show because i have memories of me and my brother watching Christopher and davids adventures.
Ciaran Hogg In Sarah Jane Adventure, the 500 regenerations was meant as a through away joke, not to be taken serious. It has been established that Time Lords can naturally regenerate 12 times since 1976 in "The Deadly Assassin." But it was said in "The Five Doctors" in 1983 that Time Lords can implant a new cycle of 12 regenerations, which is what happened in "The Time of the Doctor." Also, Doctor Who supplies BBC Worldwide with more money than any other programme on the BBC, far more than the budget for the show itself. So with that in mind, why would they get rid of it, and if they cancel it, why have they just introduced a plot device to ensure it can continue running?
as long as the the show can keep running thats good but just one question (no im not asking you to fly the tardis) where does shalka go in the timeline?
If Matt Smith got his life back from River Song's regeneration energy, that would also make him the 14th Doctor, wouldn't it? At least since the events of "Let's Kill Hitler"?
I never actually saw that whole episode, so I have no idea. But for now, my brain hurts enough, so can we just agree that Matt's 11, 12 and 13 and leave it at that before my brain explodes? Sorry. XD
What part of: "WE'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT AT CHRISTMAS" didn't you get? -.-" And the Meta-crisis Doctor doesn't count because he's not a Time Lord. His regeneration counts, which is why Matt is 13, which means he should die and stay dead this time. But Capaldi's replacing him, we all know that, so how does The Doctor get the chance to have a 14th life? WE'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT AT CHRISTMAS. *WINK* *WINK*
***** Well, there are three different things we're keeping track of here. There are the Doctors, and despite John Hurt's appearance, Matt Smith's Doctor is the 11th. That's our convention, not his. And I'm fond of it, so that's what I'm going to keep using... And there are incarnations of the character, which includes John Hurt's appearance. That makes Matt Smith the 12th incarnation, and Peter Capaldi the 13th. That's what the Time Lords were counting in The Day of the Doctor, the incarnations, when Capaldi made his appearance. He's their 13th "Doctor". Then there is the count of regenerations, and that's a hard one to track because until recently, the nth regeneration gave us the nth-plus-one Doctor. The Second Doctor was the first regeneration, and the Fifth Doctor was the fourth. And that's why Matt Smith is the 13th "Doctor" (12th regeneration), because Hurt took the 8th regeneration, Eccleston took the 9th, and Tennant took both the 10th and 11th. (The energy from the 11th eventually produced the Meta-Crisis Doctor.) It's only the Whoniverse, the Doctor (we would hope), and turbogeeks like us who keep track of this stuff. Now that regeneration limit of 12 applies to regenerations, not to the other two things. Or so we've thought. We'll find out what all happened to the Doctor and to the laws of the universe in a couple of days.
Dave Ostroske well.. most are saying that matt is the 11th "Doctor" as we know it with metacrisis and the "war doctor" as being regeration bodies used but not "THE DOCTOR" so.. it will make more sense for capaldi to make the doctor old again if it's the first body of the new regen cycle OR if he is going to start to degrade and we see the emergence of the Valliyard.
"Fantastic, Absolutley Fantastic!" Very well Done. And to anyone who has not seen it yet: Go and watch this Video. Come on, go along watch it, "Allons-y" This Video is awsome. Its Fantastic, ... GERONIMO!!!! PS.: Filipe Goncalve was right. I also would like to see Ecclestons Face in the 9-10 Generation. We now that it's he, but to see his Face would complete it more. It would be better. Nevertheless, the REST was Perfect!
Oh my God, only just occurred to me that when River killed the Doctor in Let's Kill Hitler, it wasn't that the poison was too strong for him to regenerate, but that he could not regenerate again: 'regeneration is disabled'. I'm so slow. Moffat put that in way back then!
This is gonna be amazing! Since Matt Smith will be departing in three days, so will the final Doctor. And since Peter is 55 years old, (same as the First Doctor) the ages reset. Going from 55 to 29 in his new set of regenerations. Can't wait!!!
Can't believe I have just read another comment on here about how re-growing the hand in The Christmas Invasion doesn't count as a separate regeneration to the Ecclestone-Tennant regeneration. No-one is claiming it does, and this video has clearly been produced to show that what is meant by Tennant's second regeneration is the Meta Crisis which lead to the creation of "human 10" and The DoctorDonna when the regeneration energy was poured into said severed hand. As you said in your comment Sophie Mayers: Get your facts straight. Tennant's "second regeneration" is the meta-crisis in the season 4 finale, not the hand regrowth in The Christmas Invasion.
Great video. It put me off at first that they were a bit sped up, but it went with the theme tune so I'm happy with that. Would love to see Eleven's 'sneeze' added to the end of this just as the last sting rings out. For technicalities sakes, should the fans include the exploding regeneration as part of these type of sequences? It could be argued that Ten's healing is part of that process (because Eleven was so old), but his first 'handy' regeneration didn't change his face...
+AkiraNasuki since a time lord can only have 12 regeneration per cycle, this will give them a total of 13 incarnation (if they do a full regen) so how does matt smith regenerate for a 13th time? It basically due to river sacrificing all her regenerations revive him, river has used 2 regens leaving 10 left which was given to the doctor, matt is the first doctor of the 2nd set meaning he has another 10 new incarnation available
Ahh. It was said during the Christmas Special that 10 technically regenerated... he just vain in that he didn't want to change his face. So whilst he didn't change, that was considered a used Regeneration... Also, Steven Moffat said so.
Ah. I think we're referring to different things. I'm referring to the act of regeneration as being a "regeneration"; and you're referring to each body as a "regeneration". I would prefer to call each body an "incarnation". Because if nothing else, the First Doctor can hardly be called a "regeneration" on any logic.
You left out the interrupted regeneration at Lake Silencio (or however it's spelled), but nice compilation. As of Day of the Doctor the chain is finally complete. =)
Hey, no old Tom Baker faced Doctor from the future (as in a Day of the Doctor) Other than that good, though it would have been nice to see Ecclestone more
TranscendentLion indeed he could be a hallucination or my personal theory thats got no evidence its in fact the master screwing with the doctor cause thats what the master does :)
the 10th doctor's first regeneration didn't count because he didn't really regenerate at all he didn't use all that energy his hand did and probably gave some energy back to him for another later or something also he couldn't regenerate as the 11th when river poisoned him she gave her regeneration energy to him so I kinda think that evens that out a bit but he needed a new regeneration cycle in the movie so yahh theirs your new debate there!
No. That was a regeneration. Matt Smith even stated that in Time of the Doctor that he wasted a regeneration on that. He didn't get any energy back from that.
Not sure what you're referencing. Just make sure when you're reading the wiki you aren't reading Prose or Comics, because those don't always hold true to the TV canon. The wiki doesn't discriminate against comic/prose/etc. when written up in full detail on a page.
The TNT Mage This is the Doctor's first 12 regenerations. The 11th Doctor's regeneration onto the 12th Doctor is his 13th regeneration (Thanks a lot for confusing the numbering War Doctor and Meta-Crisis 10), so it isn't included.
***** War Doctor is his 9th incarnation, but is not considered a "Doctor", so by incarnation, everyone past him is bumped up by one, but the Doctor numbering stays the same
I'm aware. Just taking precautions for any newer fans who may have come to this video by curiosity. To be clear: I wasn't complaining about your comment - just providing an explanation beneath my spoiler tag.
+David Wiseman That regeneration is the Doctor's 13th. The title of the video specifies that it features the *12* regenerations in the Doctor's first regeneration cycle. Plus this video was made before that regeneration was screened.
First Doctor (William Hartnell) 1963 - 66: He collaped in the TARDIS from old age and exhaustion after battling the Cybermen on Mondas. As a result he regenerated into a much younger man. Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton) 1966 - 69: He was forced to regenerate again and was put on exile after he broke the Time Lords laws of non-interference. Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) 1970 - 74: He was poisoned by the crystals of the planet Metebelis 3 while battling the Queen Spider. He later died in UNIT headquarters but was aided in regenerating by the Time Lord K’AnpoRimpoche. Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) 1974 - 81: He sustained serious injuries after falling off the Pharos Project Radio Telescope so he merged with a future incarnation of himself called the Watcher and regenerated. Fifth Doctor (Peter Davidson) 1981 - 84: He caught the Spectrox toxaemia virus on the planet Androzani but instead of giving himself the last dose of the antidote he gave it to his companion Peri Brown resulting in him regenerating once again. Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) 1984 - 86: The TARDIS was attacked by the Rani and the Doctor was badly injured forcing him to regenerate. Seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) 1987 - 96: He was shot by a group of gangers and was admitted to hospital but because of a confusion of his double heartbeat he died but later regenerated in the morgue. Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) 1996: He died in a spaceship crash while trying to save a young woman called Cass but was later resurrected by the Sisterhood of Karn who begged him to put an end to the Time War. He then drank their elixir which triggered his regeneration. War Doctor (John Hurt) 2013: He regenerated from old age and exhaustion after fighting in the Time War. Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccolston) 2005: After Rose absorbed all the energy of the Time Vortex he absorbed it from her to save her life resulting in him later regenerating. Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) 2005 - 10: He was exterminated by a Dalek and later regenerated in the TARDIS but once he was healed he halted the transformation and transferred the remaining energy into his spear hand resulting in him keeping the same face. Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) 2005 - 10 second: He was poisoned after absorbing deadly radiation to save his friend Wilfred Mott. He then visited his past companions before violently regenerating in the TARDIS. Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) 2010 - 13: He nearly died of old age but was gifted a new set of regenerations by the Time Lords. He later regenerated in the Tardis.
***** It still counts. yes. I wasn't denying it counting as a legitimate regeneration but David did not change. He didn't want to and is thus the SAME doctor.
Renegade Angel No, someone in the room said "No sir, all thirteen!" telling him that in fact there were not 12 bodies circling Gallifrey, but 13. That doesn't make Capaldi 'Thirteen' in fan numbering, just the 13th Body.
You should Show a second or two more of the Ecclestone to Tennant regeneration, as we don't actually get to see Ecclestones face
Cosmic, They actually didn't shoot Eccelstone's face for The War Doctor to 9th Doctor regeneration, although there is a fan made extended version of the regeneration
Magna Ryuu Yeah, I know that. Jim Vick is right, I meant a second or two of Eccleston before he becomes Tennant. Thanks anyway. I saw that fan made thing too, it wasn't bad.
AND ANOTHER ONE COMING.
IM NOT PREPARED.
I love that finally after 8 years we have a regeneration sequence for each doctor and in one case we have two for one of the doctors. This certainly raises the question of which life is the doctor currently on as he has technically regenerated 12 times including the aborted one in series 4. This would make smith's incarnation the 13 life. In theory he can't regenerate again and there is rumour that will be resolved in time of the doctor (Matt smith's final episode reportedly set on trenzalore). Tell you what Christmas can't come soon enough!

I'm quite sad to see matt go as I think he is an incredible actor and one of the best doctors however I reckon capaldi should be decent as well.
legofreak86 Yeah, the Meta Crisis regeneration counts because even though it was "aborted", it used up the same amount of energy a full regeneration would have used, despite no change, therefore it depletes the remainder by one.
georgercop I don't think it's the regeneration energy that's used up, I think it's the incarnations themselves. Eight says in the TV Movie 'A Time Lord has thirteen lives', not thirteen regenerations.
+Alex Gabriel Yeah, thirteen lives, total of 12 regenerations. there has been 11 complete regenerations, plus the aborted meta-crisis regeneration, which used up the same amount of energy as a full regeneration, so counts as the twelfth
But what about when River saved the doctor by giving him the remaining of her regenerations? wouldnt that come into account?
greedy 10, he used 2.
Technically, the energy going into the hand does NOT count.
While I won't like it if Moffat reveals the hand regeneration counts as a full regeneration, I did love this video. Nice to finally see all the regenerations of the Doctor up to this point.
You'll have to update this at Christmas!
well the Xmas regen will be the first of a new set of regens, so this video won't completely be nulled
nice but you should show the face of eccleston in the 9th regeneration
Eccleston's face wasn't shown in that regenration, you see the eyes and eyebrows change and then it cuts.
i was talking about 9-10 regeneration
***** Well, 1981Timelord's extended regeneration could've been used
That's the Tenth Regeneration you're talking about, then.
Okay. Since this is such a confusing matter, allow me to clarify, once and for all, the thirteen incarnations of the Doctor.
1. First Doctor: William Hartnell 1963-66. Died in The Tenth Planet, Part Four, as a result of energy drain, exhaustion, and old age.

14. Twelfth Doctor: Peter Capaldi 2013- The incumbent Doctor. We currently do not know of the fourteenth regeneration's details.
There you have it. 14 incarnations, 13 regenerations.
And obviously the Thirteenth Doctor will be a woman! X3
***** please no
j luke please please yes.
***** That would be really, really, really awkward. You know exactly why.
***** As a trans girl, I know that it would also be much more interesting than it would be awkward.
glad they found one style they can stick with...
I disagree, I loved the randomness of the classic regeneration, anything could happen, and that seemed to reinforce the fact that regeneration is really quite random.
Bryn Walker Addendum: Regeneration for THE DOCTOR is random. The Doctor's just an idiot who doesn't know how to control his regeneration or fly his TARDIS. But he's a lovable idiot.
***** He's an old mad man in a box.
***** He's so old he doesn't even remember if he's lying about his age. And we love his box.
***** regenerations after 2005 all use the same orange glow effect.
I like that we have a legitimate regeneration for the 8th Doctor. And 9th!
This is the only vid that seems to include the stolen earth regeneration so bravo and I hope you make a new regeneration vid to include matt's regeneration into capaldi :)
Ok I believe it was establish that time lords can only have 12 biological regenerations per cycle unless they are given more. Matt smith is technically the last doctor of the first cycle since David tennent s doctor used two full regeneration energy 1/2 on himself remainder into his hand. This explains partially explains why matt couldn't regenerate in Berlin because he ran out (as well as the poison negating it) but that was never mentioned...
I Think Peter Capaldi Will Make A Great Doctor Because He Looks More Scientific Than Matt Smith.
Anyone else notice that the music lines up perfectly with McGann bursting out the regeneration energy?
The first cycle of regeneration, capaldi is the first of a new cycle of doctors with 11 regens left
With McGann's return in "Night of the Doctor", we finally have the big gap filled.
***** I was. I loved his regeneration scene, and a brilliant end to my favourite Doctor. I was glad to see that, after following his 10 seasons on audio, the rest of the world saw how great he truly was with Night of the Doctor. And that was just 6 minutes! :D

Does the 10th Doctor's first regeneration really count?
Couldn't wait another month for Smith, could we?
You need to do a new one because of Peter Capaldi.
Well done, but you'll have to update it now.
(also a second or two of Speahead from Space would be nice).
Yeah man,the whole set from the first to latest. I can't wait to see how Matt's doctor regenerates into peter's doctor. Yet another epic event about to happen of course.
yet tennant went out with a huge bang!
meh heh Too true at that,I imagine Matt's Doctor will do the same by the looks of the current trailer.
but dang silence daleks weeping angels (and something else assuming cybermen sense the poster) this is going to be better then the 50th
That part I can't believe though,the weeping angels back yet again? Man,and back then I thought they were just a flash in the pan,but man I see they're much more than that these days.
ikr and then the silence are back i thought the weeping angels and the silence were killed off
Guys, Matt Smith was the 11th Doctor, but the 13th Incarnation (War Doctor and Human Clone) Capaldi is the 12th Doctor, with 11 more regenerations. The numbering stays the same.
pay a
so this is what i was looking for but i think you should of cut the regen sceans back a lil bit so we could see the faces of the witch doctor was regenirating
He's regenerated 12 times, has had 12 bodies, but is the 11th doctor. No regeneration's left as he used 2 in one life but i don't think that should count because he didn't change his body, so it wasn't a full regeneration
Actually, if Matt Smith is the Doctor's last regeneration, it would explain why David is so defiant and frightened about regenerating. He knows if he regenerates, then he has no more second chances after that, and one step away from his final death.
i dont think it is because remember scream of the shalka? in that he said he could regenerate 9 times so i think there will be more regenerations.
Well, firstly, Shalka isn't canonical, and we know he has more regenerations now. But he had run out after David, which was said in "Time of the Doctor."
in the sarah jane adventures he said he could regenerate 500 something times look it up but know its only 12 for some reason. Maybe its costing the bbc cash who knows but i hope they dont stop the show because i have memories of me and my brother watching Christopher and davids adventures.
Ciaran Hogg In Sarah Jane Adventure, the 500 regenerations was meant as a through away joke, not to be taken serious. It has been established that Time Lords can naturally regenerate 12 times since 1976 in "The Deadly Assassin." But it was said in "The Five Doctors" in 1983 that Time Lords can implant a new cycle of 12 regenerations, which is what happened in "The Time of the Doctor." Also, Doctor Who supplies BBC Worldwide with more money than any other programme on the BBC, far more than the budget for the show itself. So with that in mind, why would they get rid of it, and if they cancel it, why have they just introduced a plot device to ensure it can continue running?
as long as the the show can keep running thats good but just one question (no im not asking you to fly the tardis) where does shalka go in the timeline?
Incase people are wondering the music at 3:11 is called starvation hy joe bergersen or tom bergerson... I forget which...
And this explains why Matt Smith is the 11th, 12th, and 13th Doctors. But what about Capaldi....? We'll have to find out at Christmas.... ;)
If Matt Smith got his life back from River Song's regeneration energy, that would also make him the 14th Doctor, wouldn't it? At least since the events of "Let's Kill Hitler"?
I never actually saw that whole episode, so I have no idea. But for now, my brain hurts enough, so can we just agree that Matt's 11, 12 and 13 and leave it at that before my brain explodes? Sorry. XD
What part of: "WE'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT AT CHRISTMAS" didn't you get? -.-" And the Meta-crisis Doctor doesn't count because he's not a Time Lord. His regeneration counts, which is why Matt is 13, which means he should die and stay dead this time. But Capaldi's replacing him, we all know that, so how does The Doctor get the chance to have a 14th life? WE'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT AT CHRISTMAS. *WINK* *WINK*
***** Well, there are three different things we're keeping track of here. There are the Doctors, and despite John Hurt's appearance, Matt Smith's Doctor is the 11th. That's our convention, not his. And I'm fond of it, so that's what I'm going to keep using...
And there are incarnations of the character, which includes John Hurt's appearance. That makes Matt Smith the 12th incarnation, and Peter Capaldi the 13th. That's what the Time Lords were counting in The Day of the Doctor, the incarnations, when Capaldi made his appearance. He's their 13th "Doctor".
Then there is the count of regenerations, and that's a hard one to track because until recently, the nth regeneration gave us the nth-plus-one Doctor. The Second Doctor was the first regeneration, and the Fifth Doctor was the fourth. And that's why Matt Smith is the 13th "Doctor" (12th regeneration), because Hurt took the 8th regeneration, Eccleston took the 9th, and Tennant took both the 10th and 11th. (The energy from the 11th eventually produced the Meta-Crisis Doctor.) It's only the Whoniverse, the Doctor (we would hope), and turbogeeks like us who keep track of this stuff.
Now that regeneration limit of 12 applies to regenerations, not to the other two things. Or so we've thought. We'll find out what all happened to the Doctor and to the laws of the universe in a couple of days.
Dave Ostroske
well.. most are saying that matt is the 11th "Doctor" as we know it with metacrisis and the "war doctor" as being regeration bodies used but not "THE DOCTOR" so.. it will make more sense for capaldi to make the doctor old again if it's the first body of the new regen cycle OR if he is going to start to degrade and we see the emergence of the Valliyard.
chase1146 the regeneration DID actually happen, everyone saw it happen, in the tower, THANK YOU TIME LORDS!!! so you can't say it didn't
"Fantastic, Absolutley Fantastic!" Very well Done. And to anyone who has not seen it yet: Go and watch this Video. Come on, go along watch it, "Allons-y" This Video is awsome. Its Fantastic, ... GERONIMO!!!!
PS.: Filipe Goncalve was right. I also would like to see Ecclestons Face in the 9-10 Generation. We now that it's he, but to see his Face would complete it more. It would be better. Nevertheless, the REST was Perfect!
Oh my God, only just occurred to me that when River killed the Doctor in Let's Kill Hitler, it wasn't that the poison was too strong for him to regenerate, but that he could not regenerate again: 'regeneration is disabled'. I'm so slow. Moffat put that in way back then!
This is gonna be amazing! Since Matt Smith will be departing in three days, so will the final Doctor. And since Peter is 55 years old, (same as the First Doctor) the ages reset. Going from 55 to 29 in his new set of regenerations. Can't wait!!!
Can't believe I have just read another comment on here about how re-growing the hand in The Christmas Invasion doesn't count as a separate regeneration to the Ecclestone-Tennant regeneration. No-one is claiming it does, and this video has clearly been produced to show that what is meant by Tennant's second regeneration is the Meta Crisis which lead to the creation of "human 10" and The DoctorDonna when the regeneration energy was poured into said severed hand. As you said in your comment Sophie Mayers: Get your facts straight. Tennant's "second regeneration" is the meta-crisis in the season 4 finale, not the hand regrowth in The Christmas Invasion.
Great video. It put me off at first that they were a bit sped up, but it went with the theme tune so I'm happy with that. Would love to see Eleven's 'sneeze' added to the end of this just as the last sting rings out. For technicalities sakes, should the fans include the exploding regeneration as part of these type of sequences? It could be argued that Ten's healing is part of that process (because Eleven was so old), but his first 'handy' regeneration didn't change his face...
+AkiraNasuki since a time lord can only have 12 regeneration per cycle, this will give them a total of 13 incarnation (if they do a full regen) so how does matt smith regenerate for a 13th time? It basically due to river sacrificing all her regenerations revive him, river has used 2 regens leaving 10 left which was given to the doctor, matt is the first doctor of the 2nd set meaning he has another 10 new incarnation available
I counted eleven regenerations?
Ahh. It was said during the Christmas Special that 10 technically regenerated... he just vain in that he didn't want to change his face. So whilst he didn't change, that was considered a used Regeneration...
Also, Steven Moffat said so.
Ah. I think we're referring to different things. I'm referring to the act of regeneration as being a "regeneration"; and you're referring to each body as a "regeneration". I would prefer to call each body an "incarnation". Because if nothing else, the First Doctor can hardly be called a "regeneration" on any logic.
I got 13....
I'm gonna be so sad when Matt Smith leaves. I don't want him to stop being the doctor.
You really should have waited a month before posting this :D
Brilliant all 12 regenerations in the doctors first regeneration cycle.
Remake this with the 13th regeneration (Matt Smith to Peter Capaldi)
Technically yes it does had the doctor not regenrated he would have died
Now we only need to add Matt's regeneration into Capaldi
You left out the interrupted regeneration at Lake Silencio (or however it's spelled), but nice compilation. As of Day of the Doctor the chain is finally complete. =)
the Astronaut shooting wasn't a real regeneration. It was just a fancy light show put on by the Teselecta
And finally we only need the one of this christmas!
for some reason my message messes up it adds a ' to it!
You mean his 13 regenerations.
Nice, with new rigeneration but too short!
That was awesome! Where did you download the music from? I know its from the 50th, i just wanted to have it on iTunes.
it's just the audio of the 50th's credits. no download
BowTiesRCool ok
oh yah it is his extra regeneration ! woops
Where's the Eccelston regeneration??
between Hurt & Tennant >_>
No, I didn't see it in here.
Taylor Morrison watch it again then?
I saw the war doctor but not Eccleston
It looks like their constipated lol
meta crisis counts as a regnaration
he doesn't, as he is separate from the Doctor himself with different physical traits. He's more of a spin-off than a regeneration.
but that means the doctor has regenerated 12 times he cant regenerate agin
SantomPh Steven Moffat says it counts as a regeneration, so the Doctor can't regenrate anymore; that's what the upcoming Christmas special is about.
3 doctor regeneration in one year.
Can you answer this? Where did you get Paul McGann's Regeneration and who was that after him? Thanks.
Hey, no old Tom Baker faced Doctor from the future (as in a Day of the Doctor) Other than that good, though it would have been nice to see Ecclestone more
It's not 100% certain that the Curator is a future Doctor, and even if he is, we don't know what number he is.
TranscendentLion indeed he could be a hallucination or my personal theory thats got no evidence its in fact the master screwing with the doctor cause thats what the master does :)
Quick! Add one more. LOL
thanks for making this!!
Superb editing, nice one!
who is the spoon master>>>>
Should update it now.
There's room for one more :)
the 10th doctor's first regeneration didn't count because he didn't really regenerate at all he didn't use all that energy his hand did and probably gave some energy back to him for another later or something also he couldn't regenerate as the 11th when river poisoned him she gave her regeneration energy to him so I kinda think that evens that out a bit but he needed a new regeneration cycle in the movie so yahh theirs your new debate there!
No. That was a regeneration. Matt Smith even stated that in Time of the Doctor that he wasted a regeneration on that. He didn't get any energy back from that.
Yea,it was still a regeneration from his 11th life to his 12th life even though he had the same face.
Nice sequences.
doesn't the war doctor regenerate into cristiphor ecleson
Yes he does.
its 13 now:)
Where was number 9? I didn't see Chris E. In this.
he was in it
Needs to be updated
This is fantastic!
You forgot the matt smith regeneration into 13
it's pretty easy to forget it when it hasn't aired yet, yeah
who was the one after Paul mc Gann I though it was john hurt from the day of the doctor.
it was John Hurt. He picks up a war belt and says 'Doctor No More'.
thanks
The time lords overcame the 13 regeneration limit thanks to Rassilon. It says on wiki and it explains the masters return.
the wiki isn't always correct
I think the five doctors explains about this a little bit...
Not sure what you're referencing. Just make sure when you're reading the wiki you aren't reading Prose or Comics, because those don't always hold true to the TV canon. The wiki doesn't discriminate against comic/prose/etc. when written up in full detail on a page.
anyone know the name of this version of the Doctor Who theme? I cant seem to find it anywhere
it hasn't been released yet (much like the series 7B theme hasn't)
its the theme from the 50th Anniversary
The last 5 seconds gave me goosebumps
The last minute gave me goosebumps.
PERFECT
I like it
Would you mind if i saved this video for a video project?
not at all. go for it
BowTiesRCool awesome! thanks!
itsgrantcasual awsome
where's the 11 to 12 regeneration?
The TNT Mage This is the Doctor's first 12 regenerations. The 11th Doctor's regeneration onto the 12th Doctor is his 13th regeneration (Thanks a lot for confusing the numbering War Doctor and Meta-Crisis 10), so it isn't included.
It's 13
no... here it is 12, because these are all his natural first cycle regens before he got given a new set
***** War Doctor is his 9th incarnation, but is not considered a "Doctor", so by incarnation, everyone past him is bumped up by one, but the Doctor numbering stays the same
BowTiesRCool yh but its 13 now isnt it? cos 12th doctor well this vid was last month i think? or 2 months ago lolor 3 aha and yh
You're Missing the Impossible Astronaut one.
SPOILERS for Series 6!
That one wasn't a real regeneration; just an elaborate deception that looked like one.
starschwar This Contains spoilers for every regeneration, plus it's not that much of a spoiler.
I'm aware. Just taking precautions for any newer fans who may have come to this video by curiosity. To be clear: I wasn't complaining about your comment - just providing an explanation beneath my spoiler tag.
Techinaly that was a robot clone thing doing simulation the regeneration, not the actual Doctor.
that's 11. if you added peter then it would be 12.
11 doctors, 13 bodies and 12 regenerations. Matt used the 13th regeneration to become Peter who is the 14th body but the 12th Doctor
BowTiesRCool oh ok fine.
john hurt should be first.
he regenerates into the first doctor.
Hurt regenerates into Eccleston.
Wow! You must really not have payed attention...
He does not. The order in the video is correct. Not sure what could have possibly mislead you.
who the fuck gave this comment a thumbs up?
actually he turns into eccleston
geronimioooo!!!!!!!
13......
what is the regeneration at 0:48 ?
yah i forgot
damn do i miss him
Hey, where was Smith-Capaldi at?
*sigh* look at the upload date :P
+David Wiseman That regeneration is the Doctor's 13th. The title of the video specifies that it features the *12* regenerations in the Doctor's first regeneration cycle. Plus this video was made before that regeneration was screened.
First Doctor (William Hartnell) 1963 - 66: He collaped in the TARDIS from old age and exhaustion after battling the Cybermen on Mondas. As a result he regenerated into a much younger man.
Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton) 1966 - 69: He was forced to regenerate again and was put on exile after he broke the Time Lords laws of non-interference.
Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) 1970 - 74: He was poisoned by the crystals of the planet Metebelis 3 while battling the Queen Spider. He later died in UNIT headquarters but was aided in regenerating by the Time Lord K’AnpoRimpoche.
Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) 1974 - 81: He sustained serious injuries after falling off the Pharos Project Radio Telescope so he merged with a future incarnation of himself called the Watcher and regenerated.
Fifth Doctor (Peter Davidson) 1981 - 84: He caught the Spectrox toxaemia virus on the planet Androzani but instead of giving himself the last dose of the antidote he gave it to his companion Peri Brown resulting in him regenerating once again.
Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) 1984 - 86: The TARDIS was attacked by the Rani and the Doctor was badly injured forcing him to regenerate.
Seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) 1987 - 96: He was shot by a group of gangers and was admitted to hospital but because of a confusion of his double heartbeat he died but later regenerated in the morgue.
Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) 1996: He died in a spaceship crash while trying to save a young woman called Cass but was later resurrected by the Sisterhood of Karn who begged him to put an end to the Time War. He then drank their elixir which triggered his regeneration.
War Doctor (John Hurt) 2013: He regenerated from old age and exhaustion after fighting in the Time War.
Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccolston) 2005: After Rose absorbed all the energy of the Time Vortex he absorbed it from her to save her life resulting in him later regenerating.
Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) 2005 - 10: He was exterminated by a Dalek and later regenerated in the TARDIS but once he was healed he halted the transformation and transferred the remaining energy into his spear hand resulting in him keeping the same face.
Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) 2005 - 10 second: He was poisoned after absorbing deadly radiation to save his friend Wilfred Mott. He then visited his past companions before violently regenerating in the TARDIS.
Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) 2010 - 13: He nearly died of old age but was gifted a new set of regenerations by the Time Lords. He later regenerated in the Tardis.
make it 13
12 regenerations, 13 bodies. Well, 14 now with Capaldi, but as for as this video goes, I mean.
BlueBrickTARDIS wrong it's still 13 bodies cause david didn't change. It was still HIS body. Not a different one.
darkfur3 But as explained in 'The Time of The Doctor' it still counts as a regeneration. I make it 13 regenerations with 13 bodies.
***** It still counts. yes. I wasn't denying it counting as a legitimate regeneration but David did not change. He didn't want to and is thus the SAME doctor.
darkfur3 I think we are arguing the same point here.
Yea, that makes Matt Smith 12 instead of 11
12th body, but still 11th doctor.
We call him 11, and we call Tennant 10, and Chris 9. The numbers remain the same.
GBD1000 But if you watched the 50th anniversary special, you'd have heard the next Doctor refer to himself as 13, so.....
Renegade Angel And if you paid attention to the special you would have known that he did not.
Renegade Angel No, someone in the room said "No sir, all thirteen!" telling him that in fact there were not 12 bodies circling Gallifrey, but 13. That doesn't make Capaldi 'Thirteen' in fan numbering, just the 13th Body.
Why is the hand regeneration in there?
because it was one of the Doctor's 12 regenerations
How is it one of the regenerations?
Dylan O'Connor He still regenerated, he just used the hand's DNA so he would keep the same body
LetsPlayEVERYDAY All he did was pass the regeneration into the hand. He didnt fully regenerate
Julian Gore
He still used up regeneration energy.
