    The Journey’s End regeneration should count. I still haven’t forgiven the 10th Doctor’s vanity in Journey’s End, but I am glad the issue will be addressed. The Doctor has had 12 bodies so far, but he used up a regeneration to clone his 10th incarnation.

    Looks very exciting! I heard a possible synopsis that was leaked, but I won’t spoil it. All I can say is it looks exciting enough from the promotional images alone! Although, I think the title could have been better, as someone else suggested, Silent Night, or maybe, keeping with the ‘of the Doctor’ titles, we could call it Silence of the Doctor. Oh well, at least it has every possibility of being the best Christmas special Doctor Who has had!

    In the Sarah Jane Adventures, they did the episode Death of the Doctor with Matt Smith too.

    Anyone else notice Capali’s face in the fire between the doctor and Clara?!!

    Is it just me or does the plot sound a little bit like Sylvester McCoy’s original final episode had season 27 been produced? I think it was called “ailexion” or something like that.

    Anonymous – There will be future Doctors, as Steven Moffat, according to the Sun Newspaper last week, is said to have come up with a genius storyline that will show the Doctor somehow gain a complete new life cycle of regenerations.

    The Night of the Doctor
    The Name of the Doctor

    it is a good title I think moffat could have just got it better

    e.g. silence the dr silent night

  • DroneDalek

    November 26th, 2013 - 7:41am

    Wow the name of the doctor, the day of the doctor, the time of the doctor what’s next “The new doctor” 🙂

    he did regenerate but he just used his DNA to keep him self looking the same.

    so I recon it counts so think the 11th doctor is actually in his 13th body meaning his time is up this Christmas…

    I really like this poster! And the way Smith seems to have gained his own special Christmas costume.

    There won’t be 14. Peter is number 13.

    Nah….the meta crises doctor is just that…the doctor didn’t regenerate so it’s not part of his cycle of re generations. Matt is 12 and Peter will be 13..,, that then allows Steven Moffat to deal either the whole 13 incarnations issue.

    Apparently david tennants 10.5 regeneration is going to count as cannon in this years xmas special as a full regeneration and seeing as john hurts war doctor is obviously the 9th doctor whether people want to admit it or not would mean matts doctor is infact the 13th doctor with 10.5 counting as doctor number 12 (this is confusing) but more importantly would mean he has used up his 12 regeneration’s thus peter capaldi will be the 14th doctor. Phew…….

    I wonder how they are going to explain a 14th doctor. I think it will go back to River Song. When she gave him her regenerations. I think it reset his regenerations or at least gave him what was left of hers. My question becomes since he knows n o w that a child conceived on the yard is become timelords why has he not attempted to repopulate his species?
