I just realized. This is the moment Gallifrey knew they had to grant the Doctor more Regerations. Matt Smith was number TWELVE. At this point, the FINAL Regeneration. But the thrower of the Switch that saved their world was Number 13. Thus granting him more Regerations became a Fixed Point, if they didn't, the resulting paradox would annihilate the universe. The Doctor more or less RIGGED THE UNIVERSE to make the Gallifreyan High Council grant him another set! [Update: Stop bringing up the Timeless Child, this is officially now a What If Chinballs Was Actually Clever theory.]

[@derpedarp9041]

Oh yeah... this is big brain time.

[@BYERE]

huh... Y'know, I never realised that... though technically Smith was the 14th regeneration, when you include the War Doctor and Tennant's use of regeneration energy to revive himself and create the human-like clone that stayed with Rose. You are correct though... it was the final lifetime, with no more regenerations available to him.

[@LiveHedgehog]

@@BYERE The regeneration into the 11th Doctor was the 12th (and final of the cycle). He was the 12th incarnation of the Doctor, and 13th 'life'.

[@tomnorton4277]

@@derpedarp9041 The Doctor can be a manipulative son of a bitch when he needs to be.

[@hadijawa2339]

Nice theory, but there's a small, glaring hole in it. You see, Smith's Doctor was the final Doctor, the 12th of the cycle when you add the War Doctor. He had also wasted a regeneration, resulting in the Meta-Crisis Doctor, which meant that while usually, the 13th incarnation is the last incarnation, for him, the 12th was the last. All of this you pointed towards in your comment. However, one thing you missed is that the Time Lords did NOT know about the Meta-Crisis. They counted all the Doctors, and the conclusion they would have reached would be that Smith's Doctor was the penultimate one. Therefore, the Time Lords giving the Doctor a new cycle did not become a fixed point. It is also not a fixed point because if it was, we could never have seen the Doctor's grave on Trenzalore, since that was an alternate future in which he did not get a new cycle. If a new cycle had been a fixed point, that alternate future could not exist

"Calling the War Council of Gallifrey! This is the Doctor!" That's a wonderful reintroduction to the long dead William Hartnell. He was actually the only Classic Doctor who was given a new line. This episode treats him with such reverence that he seems like a legendary figure and the man they got to record that line sounded exactly like him. They also perfectly infused previous lines into the scene. After Hartnell showed up, the rest of the Doctor's lines until Matt Smith's grim "Okay" was all archive footage. However, it was chosen carefully so that it sounded like each Doctor was contributing to the rescue mission whilst giving each other encouragement and confirming calculations in the process.

Personally, I love Capaldi but I don't like that much this decision of 'time travel trick' in this episode 'cause if you watched it before 'Time of the Doctor' (which is my case and, I think, the case of everyone else), the entire episode 'Time of the Doctor' get spoiled because you don't have this fear that the Doctor really dies since you already saw his following incarnation, as River would say : 'hush now, Spoilers', and I kinda they'd follow this advice instead of spoiling what could've been a great moment of uncertainty

It's a cheap trick. Davies destroyed Gallifrey to make the concept of the Time Lords and Gallifrey much easier to follow for new fans, it also allowed a new dimension of the Doctor to explored and added an incredibly interesting and unique part of the lore, aka the Time War, to be introduced. This made it even more impactful when The Master returned in series 3 and finally when Gallifrey and the Time Lorfs returned as a concept at the end of Davies era. Chibnall is a hack. He destroyed Gallifrey essentially to push the Doctor in the same narrative arc when we've already seen it done much more competently and with far higher stakes.

[@tomnorton4277]

Too bad Peter Capaldi completely failed to live up to the hype until he was at least halfway through his second season. He was miscast and Doctor Who started going downhill because of it. Honestly, it really pisses me off because Seasons 8 and 9 could and should have been two of the greatest seasons. Unlike Jodie Whittaker, Peter Capaldi doesn't have the excuse of being given bad stories, apart from In The Forest Of The Night and Sleep No More.

[@Rose-rl9kq]

@@tomnorton4277 No, the fault was in Moffat's writing. Capaldi has been a huge fan of Dr Who since he was a little boy, and he clearly understood the character of The Doctor. He played the role with extreme passion.

[@tomnorton4277]

@@Rose-rl9kq Peter Capaldi played the role with passion but that doesn't mean he was right for it. An actor can love their character and still be miscast. The Doctor's not supposed to be a sociopath in ANY incarnation outside of the Valeyard or the Dream Lord. Steven Moffat wrote Peter Capaldi's Doctor like any other because he strongly believes that he's supposed to be "one man with many faces". Capaldi unintentionally turned the Doctor into a Human sociopath who had to go on a redemption arc instead of an flawed but well meaning Time Lord who's questioning his identity, which is what Moffat was telling him to do. Peter Capaldi was clearly TRYING to be alien but I never believed that he had lived for thousands of years until he literally spent 4.5 billion years in the Confession Dial. Even his "sit down and talk!" speech could have been delivered by any Human military veteran. Matt Smith could convey that the Doctor had lived for centuries with his eyes alone.

They clearly have the power to grant extra regenerations though, so I doubt it's unprecedented. Also, 13 is the magic number.

[@J75Pootle]

Technically time lord's have twelve times they can regenerate, but that means thirteen faces in total.

I think its a bit of both. They couldnt stand the Doctor before. Just look at how the General saw him. But after saving Gallifrey, that had to have gotten Doctor a bit of gratitude from them. They gave up their only way of returning to the normal universe (the time/space crack) to give the Doctor another round on the regeneration clock so to speak. But at the same time, they shouldnt have known about Capaldi's Doctor at the time so they might have hoped that giving him another regeneration cycle would allow him to come back to Gallifrey

@debbielungsodaitfllo Watch the next few seasons of doctor who with the 12th and 13th doctor and you'll understand what I'm talking about, it's a while big plot line of the master turning good only for him to go bad again.

[@DavidJames-mr6rd]

Every doctor has a key point in time in the series to make them known that they are truly the doctor.

"dear god, three of them!" *a wild jack harkness appears* Jack: i cant even tell you what im thinking right now.

I'm dying omg yes

[@TheSpectacularSpiderPunk]

I can't think of a more fantastic or ingenious way to introduce Peter Capaldi's Doctor to the audience. Say what you like about Steven Moffat, but that short, ominous shot is a master stroke!

[@Vereid]

I think Moffat is great personally, just not the best showrunner. T Davis and Moffat are LEAGUES above what we have now though. :/

[@daeseongkim93]

Agreed

[@Magamonair]

​@@Vereid Yeah I liked it better when stories were complex and very imaginative even though it meant the resolution could be too simple or flawed. Now are stories that are consistent, solved properly (kinda) but... idk that's just flat. I don't feel like it must be Doctor Who when watching them. I feel like it could be any other show. To be honest I can handle a little magic trick to solve a great plot (like series 10's trilogy with the monks: the end with Bill's memory was not incredible but the whole plot over the 3 episodes was one of the best of the entire show!)

[@asheedy_7154]

he wouldnt be responsible (most likely) for that particular shot, it would have been done by a mix of the episode's director and DOP

[@bigtasty6066]

I had the pleasure of seeing this in a theater, and words could not describe the amount of excitement in the audience with this part, it was amazing.

[@JC-nx9xc]

This still gives me goosebumps when I watch it. It was Doctor Who at its best.

[@talaesparza124]

I remember having a complete melt down at this part. I was 13 years old and entirely in love with David Tennant. I can't believe how fast time goes

[@nakaharaindria]

I always get chills when I watch this scene. I think this is will forever be sitting in one of my favourite moments of Doctor Who.

[@maximumrisk2004]

I think its even on my Top 10 Epic moments list. Hell I dont have much else besides this, but its still that awesome.

[@casartherandom3010]

+The Doctor um pardon me sir do you mean 2:33?

[@hellofabird8277]

maximumrisk2004 there’s too many epic scenes

[@TristanPignon]

This scene makes me think the Time Lords didn't give the Doctor a new set of regenerations in the Time of the Doctor out of kindness, but rather out of necessity. If the Doctor would've died on Trenzalore like he was supposed to, his 13th incarnation wouldn't have been able to help saving Gallifrey. The Time Lords may be able to fix paradoxes from time to time, but maybe not one as big as to influence their own existence.

[@thetwelfthdoctor9892]

Time Lords doesn't do anything out of kindness; they always have a goal. They Saved the Doctor on Trenzalore so that he could save them

[@darthmetallus1977]

They might not have been aware that Tennant wasted a regeneration. Saying "all 13" could imply that they assumed Capaldi was his final life.

[@darthmetallus1977]

@@MaskedMan66 Errr... Sorry dude, you're wrong. Russell T. Davies said that it didn't count as a full regeneration in interview at the time, but Moffat later retconned it so it did. Matt Smith was on his final life. He would have had two incarnations left, but the War Doctor & Tennant's vanity regeneration meant that there were no more left (12 regenerations = 13 incarnations). He was then given a new regeneration cycle & became Capaldi. THE DOCTOR: "Everyone gets stuck somewhere eventually, Clara. Everything ends." CLARA: "Except you." DOCTOR: "Have you been paying attention? I'm an old man now." CLARA: "But you don't die. You change. You pop right back up with a new face." DOCTOR: "No, not for ever. I can change twelve times. Thirteen versions of me. Thirteen silly Doctors." CLARA: "Okay, so you're number eleven, so..." DOCTOR: "Ha! Are we forgetting Captain Grumpy, eh? I didn't call myself the Doctor during the Time War, but it was still a regeneration." CLARA: "Okay, so you're number twelve." DOCTOR: "Well, number ten once regenerated and kept the same face. I had vanity issues at the time. Twelve regenerations, Clara. I can't ever do it again. This is where I end up. This face, this version of me." You must have seen that scene if you watched the episode.

[@darthmetallus1977]

@@MaskedMan66 By your logic all Time Lords lie, considering we saw them give him a new cycle. Originally on Trenzalore, he died. The timeline was later altered so he could live on. Do you even watch it? Arrogant fans who think they can dictate what is & isn't canon make me laugh. If he didn't get a new cycle, continuity is messed up from what we already saw in previous episodes. Please stop embarrassing yourself. 👍

[@darthmetallus1977]

@@MaskedMan66 In this case it's very much you. 😅 Yes he contradicts himself, but not in this instance. He allowed the Doctor's life to continue. If the Doctor didn't receive a new regeneration cycle, then the show is dead. Literally. How did he contradict himself with this episode?

[@sarahclara8654]

This whole thing was great but where they all come together gives chills from toes to the top of my head.

[@dee2273]

One of my all time favorite scenes from this franchise. All the Doctors coming together to prevent the darkest moment of their life.

I jump and scream like a girl in that part the first time XD

[@birdytaken]

sparky10142 kind of sucks that he didn't want any part of doctor who after he left the show.. Im sure they would have given him an actual reprisal instead of recycling his old footage

[@jumpybuddergame-roblox3426]

sparky10142 "i didnt know i was left off"

[@lisakaz35]

It is a shame he had an issue with the previous producers and he's never wanted to reprise his role. But his non-participation gave the War Doctor an opportunity. In a perfect world, both would have had a real part.
