    With David Tennant having taken his final journey as nation's favourite Time Lord, here are some more classic regeneration clips from the Doctor's previous incarnations. The 29th October 1966 saw William Hartnell ended his time-travelling adventures when the Doctor, having collapsed at the controls of the TARDIS, transformed into a younger man.

    Are timelords more like humans in their first incarnation? because apparently this doctor only had 1 heart and died of old age.

    @OpticalFunkllusions Or as the ninth Doctor would say: He's fantastic.

    isn't it kinda sad that this is the only time the doctor dies a natural death ( old age).

    @megazwatcher I think that's the perfect way to put it.

    @BuffalonianWolverine I liked Smith and tennant both, for different reasons tennant had a real "old soldior" feel he'd been thru the darkest days, had to make tough choises and wore the emotional scars. smith has some of that to but he's recovering, finding life again

    @BuffalonianWolverine yeah colin baker was a bit of a cunt, he actually drove me away from watching dr. who until macoy took over and then he was so Merlin i just couldn't stand him either. Paul Mcgann really saved the doctor for me

    They must have taken great care in making sure everything was well aligned... The next few generations were simply not as good as this one. Especially the third/fourth.

    @OpticalFunkllusions He is not a good actor as Eccleston and Tennant. too childish in my opinion

    I still think this is the best regeneration effect

    Must say it's not actually that clear it's a different guy. Be better if they used his full head rather than just his face, then we would see WH white hair fade into PT's dark hair.

    @julesrobert21 Because The Doctor wasn't involved with the earth things and He wasn't involved with the danger so when he did get involved he regenerated

    @julesrobert21 Curse of an active lifestyle. He keeps finding ways to get himself killed!

    @julesrobert21 Large parts of his life have not been shown in the TV-show (there are lots of comic books/audio adventures that fill in gaps). Nevertheless, it's true that the doctor's frequency of regeneration is very high by Time Lord standards. His first incarnation spent more than 400 years before dieing of mostly old age. His next incarnations never came close. That's because of his lifestyle.

    @julesrobert21 well, for him, it's been 650 years since then for him.

    @megazwatcher I think Colin Baker was tens of billions of times better in Blake's Seven than as Doctor Who and also I think it is a damn shame that Colin Baker was not in my opinion cast as Blake in Blake's Seven instead of Gareth Thomas who only stayed two series and then pushed off to the theatre. Now I am certain, if Colin Baker had, played Blake, he would never have quit B7 after two seasons B7 might have lasted longer than four seasons and we if blake had stayed would never have had Tarrant

    @outofthegreenmist well, colin did try to strangle his companion shortly after the 5 to 6 regeneration

    @megazwatcher The show was undeniably in free fall in that era, but I don't necessarily blame the actors. A different production team and different writers and directors could have made all the difference. If the current series were a flop, people would accuse Smith of being 'the worst Doctor ever', etc., whereas I think he is one of the best yet, who is sadly being let down by messy and confusing plots. Still, disliking Colin and McCoy has little to do with the issue of regeneration itself.

    @outofthegreenmist Sylvester was to "in the know" he was walking thru the show like he was reading 3 pages ahead of the script and not in a good way. and colin was a bully and a coward, the worst example of the doctor in order of preference 1. Tom Baker (Best) 2. Paul Mcgann 3. Matt Smitt 4. David Tennant 5. Jon Pertwee 6. Chris Eccleston 7. Peter David 8. Patrick Troughton 9. William Hartnell 78. Sylvester Mccoy (didn't feel like the doctor) 10238. Colin Baker (hated him)

    @julesrobert21 Because in those ten times, death was caused by an outside source, such as a long fall. In the 1st doctor's case, however, he managed to elude death until his body just wore out.

    @megazwatcher Sorry, I meant Peter Davison's departure...

  • outofthegreenmist

    @megazwatcher Did you simply dislike the late 80's Dr Who or do you think the series should have ended with Tom Baker's departure?

  • megazwatcher

    @outofthegreenmist personally i'd have prefered several things had been different no Colin baker, no Sylvester McCoy, no easy ramana regeneration at will, a more detailed explanation of the origins, limitations and properties of regeneration and time lords in general. regeneration should have been more on the order of the 3rd to 4th doctors, i.e. a fatal injury or body wearing out like the 1st to 2nd doctor. also no natural number limit but council imposed instead.
