Such a strange turn of events to witness David Tennant become The Doctor twice, and be involved in 5 regenerations in my lifetime (both ends of the regeneration, 9-10, 10-10, 10-11, 13-14 & 14-15) it's bloody wild Edit: some people are confused about the 10-10 call, that's cause (in Time of the Doctor) it's officially recognised that even though he was still called the 10th Doctor, the Stolen Earth/Journeys End regeneration used up a full regeneration, even if it was just to heal him from his death to the Dalek. If you want to discount that regeneration by all means do, but it was still a regeneration scene, hence why I included it (as that literally is the point of this comment)

I loved Jodie's regeneration, and the transition into David was seamless. You'd never have guessed that they were filmed months apart with a completely different crew.

Props to the vfx team, motion control cameras are fantastic for this sort of shot

[@hotdog1214]

I concur. Kudos to both crews for a beautiful and seamless scene.

[@Lady-Y]

@ I know, these are notoriously insane to film. Like, regeneration is such a complicated visual effect to film in general, so that of all things is NOT something you want to be filming with a tiny unmanned skeleton crew/two separate crews working apart from each other. And yet due to the secrecy involved (well, in the revival years of production), it always is and is therefore an even more massive undertaking. So props to them for nailing it in such circumstances.

[@funnyfunnyvalentine7991]

​@@justfellicityaWrong, that counted as a Regeneration

[@justfellicitya]

@@funnyfunnyvalentine7991 Nope, that was a metacrisis Doctor formed by 10s aborted regeneration and his/Donna's DNA. Not an actual regeneration. He used up regeneration energy, but it wasn't a true regeneration.

[@mastere6115]

​@@justfellicityano, the metacrisis was the combination of Donna and the doctors regeneration energy. They even stated it in the show that him pumping his regeneration energy into his hand counted as a regeneration, and that is exactly why Matt Smith was the last regeneration of the 12 regenerations. As if David Tennants hand regen was not included then he wouldn't have been the 13th doctor.

What a feat it must've been to be at a different studio on a different day with a different crew and having to match the lighting, blocking etc. but with a different actor. That's a break from most regenerations, where there's a bit where the old Doctor leaves, the new one comes in and they do it on the day. (David's had a part in one of the few exceptions, when he was cast much later after principal photography on The Parting of the Ways.)

[@Samota0]

I know the topics about David, but goodness...I shed literal tears knowing that they were going to possibly be resolving things w/ Ten and Donna. Rose hurt me for awhile...Martha put into view of the importance of yourself and your loved ones...Donna though, was just a normal and somewhat self-centered individual, full of determination. I remember initially not liking her because she was this super-snappy person, but by the time that episode ended, I loved just how well they meshed together. She healed him and brought him back to reality, which is what I adored about their friendship. She was a real "Ride or Die" individual who ended up discovering the true value of her existence, only for fate to f-k her over like that, man. It might as well have been her re/degenerating for me and seeing Ten suffer like that, having to lock her away like that, was absolutely painful...When I saw the trailer though, I had a good little scream. I don't expect the same atmosphere from prior, but I'm going in hopeful that she can remember(-without repercussions) just how important she was to 10 and the universe.

[@Tulf42]

When David filmed his regeneration, there were a couple of photos of Matt and David together on the Tardis set which I always liked seeing as a "passing of the torch" moment, similar to the photo of Sylvester McCoy handing over the Tardis key to Paul McGann for the 1996 TV movie. In this case, since Jodie and David filmed on separate days, they missed the opportunity to see them together on set for any "passing the torch" photos. It's a trivial thought, I know, but at least a considerate one too.

[@andyh4518]

History repeats, since David filmed his first regeneration long after Chris had left. Hopefully he gets the chance to do a proper passing of the torch with Ncuti. Of course, if multiple Doctors do show up in the specials, then hopefully they can all be there on the same day.

[@Alkonium]

I think that time was the only instance in the revival of shooting both ends of the regeneration together.

[@stephenmurphy2212]

My theory is the reason the Doctor changed back into David Tennant is because of a side effect from Yaz and Vinder reversing the forced regeneration done to the Doctor by the Master in the previous episode. So we might see the Doctor change back into some of his old faces like Smith or Capaldi or Eccleston in the upcoming specials. Either that or Donna is still somehow connected to the Doctor because of the Meta-Crisis thing and her remembering the Doctor caused him to change back into the Tenth Doctor (14th Doctor with the face of 10).

With all the reverse-regeneration shenanigans in the power of the doctor that's pretty clearly it, they might have overshot a little bit when trying to revert the regeneration

i assumed it was a trick by the celestial toymaker as he made the Dr invisible and incorporeal the first time too and hartnell's regeneration was originally going to be a trick by the toymaker, but he ended up renewing his contract for a bit longer. however RTD seems to be debunking that here, unless he's trying to lead us off the path

This show is SO back! We're going to be getting good writing for the first time in years! I'm so happy that tennant gets to be the doctor again, he was always my favourite

I love how Russel knew fans would make theories instantly on Why David is back as 14, the man really knows the fan base all too well from his first go around as showrunner. As someone who did get spoiled on David returning, I was still shocked to see him on the screen back as the doctor. Especially due to the unique circumstances of timing
