Rumors has it we may see just that before November.
I agree whole-heartedly! That would be amazing. To see our favorite Time Lord carrying the burden of having to commit genocide f his whole race including Romana, Leela(maybe), and everything he knew of his home. Played out by John Hurt. Brilliant!
I think the popular names I have seen are "Forgotten Doctor" and "Hurt Doctor". I am good with that. Shuffling their numbers around will be tedious at best.
Why is it so difficult to call Eccleston '10' and Tennant '11'?
Personal theory on this, so dont scream and shout ok?...
Hurt apparently broke the promise of the title, "The Doctor", so he may not have that mantle. That would technically still make 11 Doctors and 1 Gallifreyan dude.
Spoiler:About 2 years ago there was a plan to have William Hartnell's 1st Doctor appear in a 2 Doctors episode, as Hartnell and Richard Hurndall had since passed away Philip Madoc was rumoured to have been chosen to play the 1st Doctor. Madoc sadly passed away before any official confirmation. There can be no chance that Hurt is playing Hartnall's Doctor, or any of the other TV incarnations for that matter, which is a massive shame.
My guess is if anyone running the show really gave a rats tail about the 12 regeneration limit thing you'd be hearing about it in almost every episode. I think fanboys need to prepare themselves for the probably that they completely ignore it or make a very simple explanation.
I hope not. Not because I think there should be a cap or I think there's a need to strictly follow the rules of the past... but because it could be fodder for some good stories.
