Revision as of 23:07, 1 March 2020
The Timeless Children was the tenth and final episode of series 12 of Doctor Who.
The episode revealed that the Timeless Child was the Doctor all along; a child being from another planet who had been adopted by one of the earliest Gallifreyans, Tecteun, and who originally had the ability to regenerate infinitely. The episode at the same time concluded various loose ends on why the First Doctor might not have been the first, mostly seen in expanded media, such as the mysterious 8 faces from The Brain of Morbius and others.
