Howling:Half-Human Doctor Theory

Panopticon → Half-Human Doctor Theory

There be spoilers about un-released stories here.
Run back to the forums if you're scared.

Okay, so I have a theory that should resolve:

The 8th Doctor's claim to half-human parentage

The 1st Doctor only having one heart

The DoctorDonna not surviving

The Clone Doctor surviving

So, lets say the Doctor's Gallifreyan father and human mother get it on and have a kid, thus arrives the Doctor. He is half human, with one heart, and the ability to regenerate. So, fast forward 450 years and the Doctor is forced to regenerate for the first time. When he does so his body of course 'resets', and so he gains his second heart. Fast forward another few hundred years, and we have a meta-crisis Doctor. This doctor is grown from Gallifreyan and human material. This Doctor has one heart but by chance cannot regenerate. Of course when Donnor is changed her already-human genetic structure changes but not securely, meaning that he head will kill her sooner rather than later.

I'm happy to answer and questions, clarify, or try and fill and gaps in the theory.

Except for the bit where the Metacrisis Doctor is disgusted to find that he's half-human. That's really the thing that seems to scream that the Doctor is and has always been fully Time Lord. Although, off-topic, the first Doctor only had one heart? Really? LostRaccoon 14:15, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Well some stories heavily imply that this is the case. Although the novels took care of that by suggestign that the second heart didn't grow till the first regeneration. Jack's the man - 14:20, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Didn't know that! Is it actually in the show, or just in the novels? LostRaccoon 15:30, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
