=== Anticipation === | |||
After receiving a summons from [[Gallifrey]], and telling [[Sarah Jane Smith]] that he had to leave her behind to answer it, Sarah Jane asked the Doctor if the summons meant he would regenerate again, to which he voiced his own uncertainty. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Hand of Fear (TV story)|The Hand of Fear]]'') | |||
After the fall, he saw [[Sarah Jane Smith]], [[Harry Sullivan]], [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]], [[Leela]], [[K9]] and [[Romana]]'s [[Romana I|first]] and [[Romana II|second]] incarnations. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') | After crashing [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] on the way to [[Shada]], the Doctor briefly believed he had regenerated. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen]]'') | ||
After seeing [[the Watcher (Logopolis)|the Watcher]] in a dream, the Fourth Doctor thought of his next incarnation. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Into the Silent Land (short story)|Into the Silent Land]]'') | |||
=== Regeneration === | |||
As Doctor anticipated his death while dangling, his mind flashed memories of {{Pratt}}, the [[Grey Dalek|Mark IV]] [[Dalek leader (Destiny of the Daleks)|Dalek Leader]], the [[CyberNomad|Nomad]] [[Cyber-Leader (Revenge of the Cybermen)|Cyber-Leader]], [[the Captain]], [[Davros]], [[Sontaran]] [[Commander]] [[Stor]], [[Zygon]] Warlord Broton, and the [[Black Guardian]]. After the fall, he saw [[Sarah Jane Smith]], [[Harry Sullivan]], [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]], [[Leela]], [[K9]] and [[Romana]]'s [[Romana I|first]] and [[Romana II|second]] incarnations. While surrounded by his companions, the Doctor assured them that the moment of his death "had been prepared for", and beckoned the Watcher towards him. The Watcher merged with him, and the Doctor's form faded into the Watcher's with his fifth incarnation emerging from the Watcher. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') | |||
=== Aftermath === | |||
During their [[Cyber-invasion (Earthshock)|2526 attack on Earth]], the [[Neomorph]] [[Cyber-Leader (Earthshock)|Cyber-Leader]] presented [[history computer|video records]] of the Doctor to his [[Cyber-Lieutenant (Earthshock)|Lieutenant]], including the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s thwarting of the [[CyberNomad]]s' [[pursuit of Voga|attempt]] to destroy [[Voga]], the [[planet]] of [[gold]]. Since their [[Cyberman android|android]]s had not sighted any of the known incarnations, the Cyber-Leader concluded that [[Fifth Doctor|the Doctor]] had regenerated again. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TV story)}}) | |||
During the [[Second Omega Crisis]], [[Borusa (Arc of Infinity)|President Borusa]] acknowledged that both he and the Fifth Doctor had regenerated when they met. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Arc of Infinity (TV story)}}) | |||
=== Alternate realities === | |||
In [[the Warrior's universe]], the Fourth Doctor's life ended prematurely when he, after destroying the [[Dalek]] [[incubator]]s in the [[Genesis Incident]], was mortally wounded by a [[genesis Dalek|prototype Dalek]]. The Doctor was enabled to regenerate by drinking an [[Elixir of Life]] provided by [[Narvin (Dust Devil)|Narvin]], becoming [[the Warrior]].
