    The way I headcanon the Vaelyard is actually due to Matt Smith's original 11th Doctor that still exists OUTSIDE of the Universe. See, when he restarted the Universe, The Doctor that appeared in THAT Universe was THAT Universe's Doctor, the one Amy "recreated" because she remembered him. She was able to remember into existence, not pull from outside. That leaves the previous one outside, forgotten. The Doctor, always afraid of death, yet also seeing the bad parts of his personality growing in his isolation (plus dealing with all his guilt as he'd not helped the War Doctor in this timeline), would experiment to separate those feelings, unknowingly creating The Valeyard.
    We could even suggest that what the 14th Doctor did at the edge of the universe was what allowed the Valeyard back in. Also possible even the previous 11th Doctor squeezed back in, who, through experimentation may not have been able to fully regenerate, but had reverse-engineered Degeneration, eventually becoming the Curator.

    Also of note is the 10th DOctor is also the most unforgiving Doctor, to where he punished each member of the Family of Blood.

    I think the choices in this video were good as defined: Doctors who exist in-universe. A great companion video will be actors-based, covering all the obvious inclusions (Five Doctors, Twice Upon A Time), as well as the less obvious ones (stunt doubles in the original production, stunt doubles in the Blu-rays like Logopolis). Then you’ve got Ty Tennant (being another “First Doctor” presumably), Peter Cushing (ditto?) and all the comedy doctors outside of canon - if you list the Curse of Fatal Death, where does it end? Anyone who impersonated Tom Baker with a scarf in a TV sketch? Voice actors impersonating for computer games? Those rotating heads in Dimensions in Time? Well if we cut out comedy sketches what if we include charity specials: Then one inclusion I just rediscovered yesterday is Arabella Weir, who around the 40th anniversary (2003) played “the first female Doctor” on audio. I guess diving into Big Finish is necessary.
    The best source of information on this is a Doctor Who Magazine article a few years ago, and it lists “actors who played the Doctor” with a score for how official their contribution was. Obviously Tom Baker, David Tenannt and so on get full points.

    I know they're very much not canon, but a fun coda to this episode could perhaps include Rowan Atkinson, Joanna Lumley, Peter Cushing, and Richard E. Grant, if for no other reason than they're such brilliant performers in their own way that have touched the fandom . Maybe a Top 10 non-Doctor canon Doctors? I remember my mind being blown when I found out quite late in my own fandom that Grand Moff Tarkin had once played the Doctor, even if the films were money grabs and not exactly great examples of storytelling. I felt as though my little nerd mind had been blown to smithereens.

      Reality tv? I got my first Desktop Computer in 1986 from University of Central Florida with Air Force Classification documents on it, nothing interesting except for documents explaining how to deal with classified documents and on a reality flight simulator. Didn't get any info on it other than it's existence. Operated on DOS 4.01 which I learned by typing the executible programs and watching what happened. Reformatted my hd 5 times.
      prior to that it was the commodore 64 as in bytes not mega or even kilo but single bytes.
      Between the two I started with Atari type reality games, hockey, Handball, Soccer. With the computer I logged on to Bulletin Board Systems and played Trade wars and other text-based turn-based games. Most only had 1 phone line But a Pirate site in NY, Rusty and Eddies BBS had 23 phone lines and it was free you just had to hack in to become a member and the upload pirated software to remain one. Yes, software games were like the Caldron, Ultima 1-7 prior to Ultima Online which still exists now. There was a really cool game call Starflight that had you dealing with aliens in space with distinct personalities like the one that was set up as a corporation and if you were fired you would be killed as a trespasser, or the Spemin who would be timid when alone but try to take you out when they thought they out massed you. Stargate 2 came out 2023 and it is fanbased and it sucks but then the developers mever worked full time on it and since weren't paid didn't last long and it took forever to get a finished program, I think they just gave up and released a crappy version of it. then there was Compuserve, also in mid 80's. which had a lot of phone lines but charged 12.95 an hour. I would sit in front of the computer and handwrite the keyboard commands I would use, only needed the first Letter I believe, so that when I logged on I could get the most for my money. I got all my school papers from it, ie company news PRs would be released and not published in most newspapers. And my teacher with her newfangled Plagiarist program would never catch me. i would play a text-based RPG on it limiting myself to an hour. All online games were text based but you could buy reality games and load them through your 5.25" floppy drive, each one could hold 512 kilobytes. Took 40 to back up my 20 mb hd. When I got that I thought no way in hell would I ever fill that up having been used to the commodore 64's tape drive.
      There was online porn too in the form of JPG's and GIF's. Took several hours, sometimes to download one and could be printed out by my full color dot matrix printer. Just a picture. One Gif I remember is an animation of Snow White and the 7 Dwarves. Sleepy got the job of doing the deed. Or was it Sneezy?
      Then the 90's had DnD, Car Wars, Paranoia, Nech Warrior, etc. All book imagination board games without the board. Or Moral decay a game with 23 simultaneous logons allowed, on a mainframe. you play a DnD type character, but it had businesses. Completely text based. You kill a corpse it would hold the same as your pc ie Player Character could hold as it was built on the same model, 2 corpses. I figured out how to use some of the 13 macros you could create. I created a series that allowed me to indefinitely stack them. each corpse can hold 2 corpses then the corpses it was carrying could carry the same items indefinitely or until they started rotting on I think 20 or 30 minutes. then a drop all command in the front room of my corpse plant which would flood the room with all the loot those corpses were carrying, including the loot on the rotted corpses. And then shortcuts to process them in the plant into food which paid me the set fee, which I lowered to 5 silver pieces since I owned the plant. the food we sold to distilleries who turned it into beer and sold to bars which sold drinks that healed you but caused clerics to not be able to cast spells. we would make the purchases using checks so they wouldn't get confused or used as player currency. Any how a Mage i.e. developer discovered my use of the bug and one time caused the corpses to blow up when I went to stacking them and when you died in this game you came back naked and had to spend 2 hours, for me, to work your way up to the good shit. Anyhow I used a monk in my guild to spy on other business owners and when they went to hand over a check to another business owner I would, as thief, sneak in and pickpocket the check then deposit it in my business before they could kill me using pre-typed direction keys in a macro because with only 23 players it wasn't too hard to figure out who was the thief and thieve s were paperweights even back then.
      Sorry, all I got left is stories to tell and I go on too long.

    The Doctors didn't rewrite time when they saved Galifrey.
    It always happened, but because of the memory loss suffered from three Doctors in such close proximity, the War Doctor remembered, but when he regenerated into Christopher Eccleston's Doctor, almost immediately, the memories were lost (as stated in Day of the Doctor), so he believed he had done it. Before they leave the museum at the end they clearly state they won't remember saving Galifrey. It's literally stated in the episode in the scene where John Hurt asks which TARDIS is his.
    Time wasn't rewritten. It was such a big event involving so much time travel, energy, destruction, alteration of two universe's, AND the fact that it was the past in the Doctor's own timeline (which would result in a paradox btw), means it would have been a fixed point in time, something we know the Doctor can't change despite his best efforts.
    The fact that he regenerated into 9, then found Rose shows this was always the way events occurred even if the Doctor himself didn't know it.
    It ALWAYS happened that way, he just didn't know it from the beginning of 9 till the end of 11.

    With the war doc retcon and the regeneration without changing, he could technically be said to have come into existence after the 12 incarnation of the doc.
    Was already shown to play out the doctors dark side, which is why main doc left him with rose to become a better person
    If she failed at that, or if something happened to rose and pushed him over the edge, he could easily wind up thinking the "real" doctor is too soft to get the job done, steal a tardis and go evil.
    Plus, it's not like David Tennant is in a hurry to retire from the show, and we know he can play evil characters well.
    Would make an interesting way to keep him around.

    What about Brendan the Irish police man, seen by many as an unreal Doctor now and plot device for the Timeless Children. The Timeless Children has many plot holes, should always have been a Master origin story and the fall out of it leading to Division. Then Division could have used a pre-Hartnell Doctor/s and when he found out he escapes. A much neater story arc, let's see if RTD2 tries to fix this and other problems or just says "a wizard did it".

      RTD has already "fixed" it. The Toymaker said "I've made a jigsaw of your life". RTD went on to say in an interview that now writers are free to come up with anything they like about the Doctor's past.
      I suppose one day we'll have some daring individual do a 'Buffy "Normal Again"' and imply the whole series has been the delusion of a mentally ill patient in hospital.

So maybe somewhere in a warehouse in spokane Washington the lost episodes are stashed away in a box some place…if it was the canadian station, then there is someone in Alberta Canada that has the lost episodes on them. Maybe they passed on and in there family’s basement is a case of vhs tapes with the lost episodes.

Who then later leaves after they visit skaro, in one of the most weirdest dalek stories ever, one where at one point the doctor brainwashs a dalek into thinking it's the second coming of davros and basically starts a religious war between daleks. He later has bernice summerfield as a companion after she gets trapped in his universe) and they also team up with the good incarnation of the master (who like the doctor is also jumping around different incarnations after being hit with a deregeneration weapon 8n the time war).

Or Just a new 12 Regeneration Cycle? If it was just a new Cycle. Whenever we get to the end of it, which isn't too far away, there's going to have to be some more Timelord stuff.

      The way I understand the situation now is that the Doctor has always had infinite regenerations but didn't know it, and the only people who might've known didn't want the Doctor to know so they kept pretending it was only the limited set. As far as 11 into 12, i think he didn't regenerate because no one killed him and getting the extra regeneration energy from the Time Lords triggered a regeneration directly or else the shock of it gave the old man a heart attack and that triggered the regeneration. Or possibly 11 had completed what he set out to do on Trenzalore and could finally "rest in peace" by allowing himself to die and regenerate into 12. That's the general way I think about it anyway.
