The Time Lords not only offered The Master a new full set of regenerations (in ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'') but also, as revealed in ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'' &c, they resurrected him during the Time War '''with''' a new set of regenerations. The ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'' also established that Rassilon had gained immortality via "perpetual bodily regeneration". The classic series did establish the 12-regeneration limit but never said where that limit came from & it also established that the limit '''wasn't absolute'''. There's enough in the show's past to provide a way around the limit, without any need to scrap anything. --[[Special:Contributions/2.96.16.231|2.96.16.231]]<sup>[[User talk:2.96.16.231#top|talk to me]]</sup> 15:36, June 7, 2013 (UTC) | The Time Lords not only offered The Master a new full set of regenerations (in ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'') but also, as revealed in ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'' &c, they resurrected him during the Time War '''with''' a new set of regenerations.

: And there is also the matter of River Song "giving" the Doctor her remaining regenerations (10?11?) to heal him after he was poisoned. Did these regenerations just serve to cure him? Or did she actually pass along her regenerations? Moffat could have easily created a simple antidote to her poison (her lipstick never killed people in other episodes) but he specifically had her heal him by giving him her regenerations. This serves two purposes: It explains why we would only see one incarnation of an adult River and it might explain why the Doctor has additional regenerations.
