The most obvious explanation comes the one thing we know of
Gallifrey’s early history: the war against the Great Vampires.
The Time Lords could’ve reverse engineered the vampires’
regenerative abilities for themselves. The thirteen regeneration
limit is because beyond that, there’s an increasing chance
of regenerating into a vampire!
Unfortunately, the Timeless Child has robbed us of the
possibility of a story about that happening to the Doctor. :(

He must have done it sometime in the past when he was William

fantasies don't count.
I suppose I could have predicted that answer.
Although, you haven't missed much... there is a bit more
depth to some of the stories alright, but they lack the
Uncle Terrance touch.
Turning the caretaker of the department store Rose worked in

who want nothing to do with him, in other words a self insert

Leela who as we shall find out in the next rewatch after
we take a break to watch the newly discovered episodes of
The Dalek's Master Plan for Easter is a human from the
future. She is allowed by the Time Lords to remain on
Gallifrey and marry Andred. Why would she stay there with
him unless they can have children, which implies he must
be a human from the future too.
[Sticks hand in the air]
Please sir, if Leela was of human descent how come she was
able to go to Gallifrey when Sarah Jane Smith couldn't?
Because the Doctor was now President and he changed the rules.
Presidents have too much power. No wonder people assassinate

The one on Gallifrey had to resign. What scandal was he involved in to

The Doctor was summoned to Gallifrey at the end of The Hand of

summoned in The Invasion of Time. He went there of his own

And left her there... to get married.

He must have done it sometime in the past when he was William Hartnell
since he has a granddaughter to prove it. What happened to his wife? Did
she die or did they diverse?
If people want romance they can read a Mills & Boon book.
The romance should be between the companions and it must reflect the
fact that 98.5% of the audience are not gay.
In The Brain of Morbius the humans of Solon's time know
about Gallifrey and where it is located and can easily
travel to it.
Guess what else was in the Brain of Morbius?
Allegedly!
Those were 4 incarnations of the Doctor from William Hartnell
to Tom Baker and the rest were the faces of Morbius as was
obvious to anyone watching it. There were no incarnations of
the Doctor before Hartnell.
<ring ring>
Jo Martin is on the phone Aggy, she wants a word with you...
Jo Martin is not the Doctor. There are no incarnations before Hartnell
and Doctor Who ended in 2017.
Leela who as we shall find out in the next rewatch after
we take a break to watch the newly discovered episodes of
The Dalek's Master Plan for Easter is a human from the
future. She is allowed by the Time Lords to remain on
Gallifrey and marry Andred. Why would she stay there with
him unless they can have children, which implies he must
be a human from the future too.
[Sticks hand in the air]
Please sir, if Leela was of human descent how come she was
able to go to Gallifrey when Sarah Jane Smith couldn't?
Because the Doctor was now President and he changed the rules.
Presidents have too much power. No wonder people assassinate
them!
The one on Gallifrey had to resign. What scandal was he involved in to
force him to do that instead of staying on for life? We were never told.
Is that what they call poor continuity sir?
The Doctor was summoned to Gallifrey at the end of The Hand of
Fear, not Sarah Jane, so he left her behind. The Doctor was no

I suppose I could have predicted that answer.
Although, you haven't missed much... there is a bit more depth
to some of the stories alright, but they lack the Uncle Terrance
touch.
Turning the caretaker of the department store Rose worked in into a sex obsessed pervert trying to force himself on people who want nothing to

The most obvious explanation comes the one thing we know of

We know far more than that one thing. We also know that the Time Lords

Unfortunately, the Timeless Child has robbed us of the

A companion [Susan] leaving the show to get married isn't really

No, they didn't. Not in the Doctor Who TV series anyway.
The EU stuff did put them together after they left the Doctor
alright, but there was never anything explicitly romantic
on-screen in the episodes... probably because Doctor Who was
a sci-fi show!
In the Peter Cushing movies Ian and Barbara are a couple, but a

A lot of the stuff that RTD added into his "Rose" novelisation
is what happens when RTD loses the run of his ideas. It did make
the novel a bit more intense than the TV episode though.
Terrance Dicks knew how to do depth properly we can all
agree.
There wasn't a lot of depth in some of his Target stories.
Some of those Target paperbacks were very thin, you could
fly through them in a coupe of hours.
Uncle Terrance had a pleasant writing style about him
though. His books were very easy going... unlike a couple of
the "new era" Target novelisations.
Terrance know how to include all the information people needed
and not to make it boring by adding stuff that was irrelevant.
David Whittaker dragged on and on and on and he didn't even
stick to the original plot.
David Whittaker was a heavier read than Uncle Terrance but I
have a soft spot of his [pre-Target] "Doctor Who in an Exciting
Adventure with the Daleks" novelisation as it was the first
Doctor Who book that I read as a child. I had the hardback,
second-hand, with a ripped and tatty dust jacket, bought by my
Nan from a jumble sale... I loved it!
Even though Uncle Terrance wrote a lot of my favourite Target
books, the best Target novelisation was Ben Aaronovitch's
"Remembrance of the Daleks".

He wasn't a Great Vampire, but then he was newly vamped. In

Yes. It was filmed between seasons.

Between filming his first and second season's as the Third

Oh, nice! *Very* nice! So it's not that they *can't* regenerate more

I didn't see the Master refusing to regenerate as a vampire. It's

You said he *was* a vampire, didn't you? He bit people to take their
bodies. He must have regenerated once too often.
He wasn't a Great Vampire, but then he was newly vamped. In this

There should be no romance in Doctor Who. Full stop!
Sydney and Verity didn't include any of that disgusting
behaviour in the 1960's stories did they? Why? Because
it's a sci-fi type show... not social commentary.
Er... You've not watched The Dalek's Invasion of Earth have
you?
A companion [Susan] leaving the show to get married isn't really
a romance, as in done for the emotional drama aspect. It's just
an easy get-out for the writers to explain why ____ left the
Doctor. It has become a Doctor Who trope. These "romances" just
come out of nowhere. I mean, who saw Leela and Andred coming?!
What about Jo Grant leaving for that hippie guy in The Green Death with
Jon Pertwee realising that he was far too old for her compared to him?
So I don't care if it's male-female, male-male, or female-
female - NOT IN THE TARDIS!
It happened in London.
Didn't Ian and Barbera have a romance too?
No, they didn't. Not in the Doctor Who TV series anyway.
The EU stuff did put them together after they left the Doctor
alright, but there was never anything explicitly romantic
on-screen in the episodes... probably because Doctor Who was
a sci-fi show!
In the Peter Cushing movies Ian and Barbara are a couple, but a
lot of people say those movies don't count.
What is not suitable for Doctor Who is a sick disgusting sex obsessed >predatory pervert using to the show to sexually groom nominally
heterosexual children to become sexual partners for himself and people
like him so that they can prey on them.
Scot Mills is the latest example of these disgusting perverts that the
BBC has been harbouring.
You have to ask what RTD was allowed to take over Doctor Who and make
the Doctor gay and lecture the audience about being incels and allowing
the disgusting effeminate gay Doctor to sexually harass men that turn
him down and even his companions own mother by saying he wanted to
whistle at her behind. These woke degenerates have no moral decency >whatsoever and no idea of the concept of consent.
The traditional story of St George saving the princess from the dragon
is what Doctor Who needs, not a sick pervert that wants to corrupt
children to create sexual partners for his own ilk. Remember this
disgusting pervert was even interviewed saying that he gets a thrill
every time he hears a boy tell him that he discovered he was gay because
of something he wrote or produced. WHY WASN'T HE SACKED AFTER HE SAID THAT?

I'm not sure how they all start out but I do like it when the

fangs, sticking out... dripping with blood as they chase men
around crypts and castles.

Well, clearly it's not as bad as "Time and the Rani" or "Paradise
Towers".
I did think the Doctor/Ace chemistry was good in "Survival"
but the darker tone thing for the 7th Doctor's era was never
something I really liked.
I never really took to Ainley's Master either... and he wasn't
very good in "Survival".

Hale & Pace spoiled the story, as did the cat-people.

That's the classic catch, at least as SF writers were discussing it back
in the mid-80s. If we could somehow skip that, in theory we could do it.

Hmm?
Distance isn?t continuous but broken up into tiny discrete
tiny pieces called the Planck Length. And time comes in tiny
pieces too, the Planck Interval.
Since speed is distance over time, that means it isn?t smooth
and continuous either. It would have to jump from one speed
to the next. Maybe it might be possible to jump past the speed
of light that way?
Or maybe not?

How big are the speed jumps, though? Is there a "unit" of speed, an >increment by which it jumps?

They're not travelling faster than light in Star Trek. They're using
Warp Drive which bends space so you're travelling though less of it
to get to your destination slower than light speed.
If you reduce the distance to 1/100 of what it is and travel at 1/10
of the speed of light through the warp then you'll get to your
destination in 1/10 of the time that a photon
would which is effectively 10x light speed but you're only travelling
at 1/10 of it. The only problem is that you need negative energy to
achieve the warping.

require infinite energy to get to it.
Light has mass.
Light is made of photons, which have no mass, but somehow do have
energy. I found this article which explains it pretty well for
laypeople:
