Tenth Doctor

Unlike his immediate predecessor, who was plagued by melancholy due to his actions during the Last Great Time War, the Tenth Doctor possessed an outgoing, lively and genial demeanour that hid his "survivor's guilt". For most of his incarnation, he was able to successfully project a convivial and even frivolous front. However, when he had to engage in conflict, the Tenth Doctor's energies would shift toward heroism to reveal a fiercely protective man who resolutely guarded what he held dear, and who could be viciously unforgiving to the forces that dared menace them. Clara Oswald later referred to this incarnation as a hero. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Intentionally or not, this incarnation showed a definite ability to flirt successfully with humans, such as Madame de Pompadour (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace) and his eventual wife Elizabeth I. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) His personal magnetism was so pronounced that some women, like Clare Pope (TV: Partners in Crime) and Christina de Souza, (TV: Planet of the Dead) proactively came on to him. Jack Harkness readily admitted his attraction as well. (TV: The Sound of Drums)

Late in his life — and especially when he was travelling without companions — the weight of being the last Time Lord became much more pronounced. If prodded too much, he would erupt in an almost righteous sense of fury. Indeed, as compared to the Eleventh Doctor, the Tenth Doctor was described by the Moment as "the man who regrets". The fact that he was instantly able to recall the number of Gallifreyan children that he believed an earlier life had killed during the war indicated just how keenly he actually felt those horrendous memories. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

He travelled mainly with three companions: Rose Tyler, Martha Jones and Donna Noble. Each relationship was shaped, to one degree or another, by romance. He seemed to genuinely love Rose as the person who helped heal some of the scars of the Time War; he was completely oblivious to Martha's obvious affections toward him, and he insisted upon a platonic relationship with Donna. After he was compelled to wipe Donna's memory completely, he entered a period in which he shunned long-term companions altogether — making an exception only for Majenta Pryce, who essentially forced her way into the TARDIS.

He met his end after he absorbed a huge quantity of nuclear radiation whilst saving the life of Donna Noble's grandfather, Wilfred Mott. (TV: The End of Time) The foreknowledge of his own demise and his strong attachment to the memories and romance he had that were special to this version of himself made it a particularly difficult task for the Doctor to let go of this incarnation.

Biography

A day to come

Travelling through the caves of the Death Zone to save Borusa from Rassilon's Tower, the War Doctor and Cinder found various cave paintings depicting the Doctor throughout his life; the War Doctor noticed one of the Tenth Doctor and recognised him as one of his future regenerations. (PROSE: Engines of War)

Post-regeneration

The newly-regenerated Tenth Doctor. (TV: The Parting of the Ways.)

The Ninth Doctor absorbed the Time Vortex from his companion, Rose Tyler, to save her life when she became the Bad Wolf entity and transferred it back into the Heart of the TARDIS. The forces of the time vortex began to destroy every cell in his body, and he had to regenerate to save his life. (TV: The Parting of the Ways) Before regenerating, the Doctor left the immortal Jack Harkness behind on Satellite 5, (TV: The Parting of the Ways) because of his status as a living fixed point in time. (TV: Utopia)

The Doctor, post-regeneration, adjusting to his new body and persona. (TV: Children in Need Special)

After regenerating the new Doctor noted his new teeth, (TV: The Parting of the Ways) and intended to take Rose to the planet Barcelona. With Rose suffering an emotional crisis over his sudden change, he instead decided to take her home to the Powell Estate in London. En route, he convinced her of his identity by reminding her of the first word his predecessor had said to her, before he began to suffer adverse effects from his regeneration. Experiencing manic hyperactivity, he accelerated the TARDIS' speed. (TV: Children in Need Special)

The Doctor warns Rose that "pilot fish" means "something" is coming. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

Crash-landing the TARDIS on the Powell Estate on Christmas Eve 2006, the Doctor fell into a coma after wishing Jackie Tyler and Mickey Smith a Merry Christmas. He snapped out of it briefly to save Mickey and the Tylers from a Roboform Christmas tree, but the stress of waking up too soon made matters worse and he collapsed again.

When the TARDIS was taken aboard a Sycorax spaceship on Christmas morning, he awoke with the help of some tea that seeped into a component of the TARDIS, just in time to stop the Fadros Pallujikaa's blood control of humanity. The Doctor challenged the leader to a duel over the fate of Earth. In the ensuing sword fight, the Sycorax leader chopped off the Doctor's hand. However, because he was still within the first fifteen hours of his regeneration cycle, he grew a new hand and went on to win the duel for the Earth. When the Sycorax leader went back on the deal, the Doctor ejected him from the ship, killing him, proclaiming that he was a "no second chances" sort of man.

As the Sycorax fled, Prime Minister Harriet Jones ordered Torchwood to destroy the ship. The angered Doctor spoke some words into her aide's ear, "Don't you think she looks tired", to bring about Jones' premature downfall. After choosing his new outfit, the Doctor had Christmas dinner with Mickey and the Tylers. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

The Platform One mystery

The Doctor answered a summoning from the Forest of Cheem and discovered the guests of Platform One were disappearing. He stopped a cyborg called Montodon Slemm from harvesting the Forest of Cheem, but failed to save them from disappearing. Intrigued, he and Rose set off to find out who was responsible. (COMIC: Growing Terror)

The Doctor runs on the planet Woldyhool in search of Cal MacNannovich. (COMIC: Hyperstar Rising)

Tracking down Cal MacNannovich, the Doctor and Rose travelled to Woldyhool and met film director Zemm Foolini, only to find Cal had also gone missing. Whilst there, he stopped a Bajunx creature from killing the cast and crew. (COMIC: Hyperstar Rising)

Following another trail, the Doctor attended the astro space race. He chased Skip Pyleen across the galaxy in a pod to stop him from stealing and selling the Hyposlip 500 to the Rakkonoids, eventually capturing him and having the corrupt racer arrested. (COMIC: Death Race Five Billion)

The Doctor took Rose to the University of Rago Rago 56 Rago to gather information about Platform One from the Chosen Scholars of Class 55. They found books were being downloaded into students' minds via a mindlink device. However, the software was infected with a Macrobe virus. Fighting off the infection himself, the Doctor stopped the Macrobes from using his Time Lord mind and his TARDIS to spread the infection across time and space. His victory was short-lived when he found the Chosen Scholars had also disappeared. (COMIC: The Macrobe Menace)

Using a book from the Rago university, the Doctor and Rose next ended up on Gameworld Gamma, where they discovered a human colony was being hunted for sport by royalty, headed by Platform guests Mr and Mrs Pakoo. He closed down the games and sent the humans back to Earth. He found the Pakoos had been taken, but he knew that, unlike the others, they had been taken to attract his attention. (COMIC: The Hunt of Doom)

After Rose disappeared, the Doctor finally learned the truth: the vengeful brother of the Moxx of Balhoon, the Elth of Balhoon, had been kidnapping all the guests as he felt they had condemned his brother to his death on Platform One. Recognising his grief with his own, the Doctor released all the kidnapped guests and persuaded them to help Elth through his grief. (COMIC: Reunion of Fear)

New adventures with Rose

The Doctor lost his TARDIS on Serac to a Sontaran squad, led by Snathe. Trying to get his ship back, the Doctor allied with his old enemies on their mission to locate Thanatos the Worldbane, the greatest super-weapon in creation. When they found it, Thanatos killed Snathe and, finding Sontarans to be a stagnant race, plotted to destroy their homeworld, Sontar. Luckily, Lerox, a kind-hearted Sontaran, convinced Thanatos that the Sontarans were worth sparing. The Doctor left Lerox with the idea of founding a new Sontaran rig called "the Hope of Sontar", hopeful that other Sontarans could learn from Lerox's compassion. (COMIC: The Betrothal of Sontar)

When the TARDIS jumped a time track with Rose inside, the Doctor was trapped on the Powell Estate for a week, waiting for its return. After failing to impress Jackie, he moved in with Mickey, disrupting his date with a local girl. Using Mickey's television, the Doctor was able to prevent a Bandrigan from invading Earth. Realising his presence was having a negative effect on Mickey's life, the Doctor left him and Rose to spend a few days alone together when his TARDIS finally returned. (COMIC: The Lodger)

Whilst Rose was at home, the Doctor travelled with a Gråttite called Grayla, (COMIC: The Whispering Gallery) and unsuccessfully tried to save Elton Pope's mother from an Elemental Shade from the Howling Halls. (TV: Love & Monsters)

After leaving the Powell Estate, the Doctor was summoned to the New New York Hospital on New Earth by the Face of Boe. Inside the hospital, the Doctor discovered the Sisters of Plenitude were creating human clones and infecting them with every disease to develop cures for other patients. Discovering that his old foe, Cassandra O'Brien, had possessed Rose, the Doctor cured all of the clones with the hospital lift's disinfectant, along with the treatments developed by the Sisters, with a reluctant Cassandra's help. This created a new lifeform in the process, and the sisters were arrested by the NNYPD while the Doctor talked with the Face of Boe.

The Doctor tells Cassandra to leave Rose's body. (TV: New Earth)

While the Doctor tried to make Cassandra leave Rose's body, Cassandra found a volunteer in her servant, Chip, for her to enter, but as he only had a "half-life", Chip's body began failing. With Cassandra convinced it was her time, the Doctor took her back in time to die in the arms of her younger self. (TV: New Earth)

The Doctor encounters the Chalderans. (COMIC: Under the Volcano)

The Doctor stopped the Mirrorlings from escaping from their dimension, (COMIC: Mirror Image) stopped the Chalderans from stealing Earth's lava, instigating Krakatoa's eruption in the proses, (COMIC: Under the Volcano) and travelled to a space-station orbiting Jupiter to stopped the Disinfectodroids from turning a peaceful alien planet into the Solar System's planet-sized rubbish dump. (COMIC: The Germ War)

The Doctor and Rose later visited Belgium in 1914 and became caught in a battle between a German platoon, led by the brutal captain Rotmund, and the alien Warfreekz machine. Rose stopped the war by singing Robbie Williams' "Angels", which forced both parties to withdraw as they thought she was the Angel of Death. (COMIC: Warfreekz!)

Taking Rose for a steak meal, the Doctor accidentally transported them to Phijax IV, where they were forced to fight as entertainment for the Glutonoid, who threatened to eat Rose if they didn't. The Doctor injected the Glutonoid with TARDIS pills, which destroyed it. (COMIC: The Glutonoid Menace)

The Doctor prepares to defeat the Lupine Wavelength Haemovariform. (TV: Tooth and Claw)

The Doctor and Rose took an accidental trip to 1879 Scotland, where they protected Queen Victoria from an assassination attempt by the Brethren. As a reward, the Doctor was knighted by the Queen, but he and Rose were also banished from the British Empire because their blasé attitude to danger unnerved the Queen. (TV: Tooth and Claw)

Visiting the British Museum with Mickey and Jackie, the Doctor and Rose discovered a statue of Rose was housed in the museum. Travelling to Rome in 120 to investigate, the Doctor found a sentient machine that could grant the wishes called GENIE and, in a series of paradoxical events, Rose and the Doctor were turned into statues and restored, with the Doctor jumping forward to the Renaissance era and taking sculpting lessons from Michelangelo, sculpting the stone Rose in the museum. With the wishes reversed and the chaos smoothed, the Doctor and Rose wished the GENIE could have its freedom and allowed it to live its life in peace. (PROSE: The Stone Rose) The Doctor then atomised the Waterhive for drowning multiple Navy soldiers to serve as incubators for their larvae. (PROSE: The Feast of the Drowned)

Trying to visit China, the Doctor and Rose became trapped in a virtual reality of London created by a troubled teenager named Craig Phillips, who was trying to recover from his sister's death by creating a fantasy world populated by imaginary people and creatures. Craig expelled Rose into the real world, whilst the Doctor took control of the virtual reality. He rebooted the virtual world with the assistance of Cathryn Lloyd, who was actually a Cyrelleod from Happytimz Universal who accidentally gave Craig the power to create this world. With Craig's imaginery world gone, the Doctor forced him to confront his grief. (COMIC: F.A.Q.)

The Doctor reunites with Sarah Jane. (TV: School Reunion)

Following a tip from Mickey, the Doctor and Rose went undercover at Deffry Vale High School, where the Doctor was reunited with Sarah Jane Smith, who was also investigating the school. After repairing K9 Mark III, he learned that Krillitane oil was being used to boost the children's intelligence and that the Krillitanes were using the children's minds to solve the Skasis Paradigm. After confronting the Krillitane at the school resulted in him and the others being pursued, K9 sacrificed himself to blow up the Krillitanes with their oil, destroying the empty school in the process.

The Doctor asked Sarah Jane to rejoin him on his travels, but she declined, but suggested that the Doctor allow Mickey to accompany him and Rose on their travels, as he was finally ready to see the universe. Before departed, the Doctor also built a new K9 as parting gift for Sarah Jane, giving it all the memories of the previous model. (TV: School Reunion)

The Doctor and his two companions went to the SS Madame de Pompadour in the 51st century, where they found the crew's organs were used as "parts" by the repair droids after the ship had been damaged. The droids created time windows to find the ship's namesake, Reinette, Madame de Pompadour, to complete repairs.

The Doctor and Madame de Pompadour in the Palace of Versailles. (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace)

While investigating, the Doctor travelled throughout Reinette's life via the time windows, fighting the droids throughout 18th century France, with him and Reinette falling in love with each other. When the droids came to harvest Madame de Pompadour, the Doctor broke through a time window to the court of Versailles in 1758, shattering the connection to the ship and stranding himself and the droids from the ship, causing the droid to deactivate from a lack of purpose.

Initially Resigning himself to living with Reinette, the Doctor found a link back to the SS Madame de Pompadour through the old fireplace. The Doctor tried going back through the fireplace so that he could take Reinette to see the universe, but the loose connection to the time window meant she had already died when he returned. After reading a heartfelt letter she had left him, the Doctor was left devastated. (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace)

After Rose became infected with an Iagnon grub, the Doctor sent Rose into a dream where he was dating her mother and Mickey had an Amazonian girlfriend so her jealously could drive the creature out of her body. (COMIC: The Green-Eyed Monster)

The Doctor explains to Rose what the Cybermen have become. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen)

Whilst travelling through time, the Doctor, Rose and Mickey fell through a crack in time, ending up on a parallel Earth more technologically advanced. While the TARDIS had died upon landing in the alternate universe, the Doctor managed to power a surviving piece of the TARDIS, but the piece of the TARDIS required a twenty-four hour recharging cycle before the TARDIS could restore itself.

When Rose found her father, Pete Tyler, was alive in this world, the Doctor cautioned her against making contact, as he wasn't actually her father. While Mickey searched for the parallel version of his grandmother, the Doctor gave in to Rose's request to attend the birthday party of her parallel mother. At the party, the Doctor was horrified to discover a parallel version of the Cybermen had been create on the parallel world, and he could only watch at they crashed the party, and killed the humans inside. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen)

The Doctor admits he's just making it up as he goes along. (TV: The Age of Steel)

Escaping, the Doctor allied himself with the Preachers, and broke into Cybus Industries to confront the creator of the Cybermen, John Lumic, only to see he had been forcibly converted into the Cyber-Controller. The Doctor bought time by trading philosophical ideas with Lumic while subtly telling Mickey to hack the Lumic family database to find the cancellation code to the Cybermen's emotional inhibitors. Mickey texted Rose the code, and the Doctor connected the phone with the code to deactivate the Cybermen's inhibitors, causing them to explode, along with Cybus Industries.

When it came time to leave, Mickey chose to stay behind to fight Cybermen worldwide, as he didn't fit in with the Doctor and Rose's close relationship. The Doctor and Rose honoured Mickey's wishes and returned to their universe, where they visited Jackie at the Powell Estate. (TV: The Age of Steel)

After leaving Jackie, the Doctor and Rose were sent into the body of Queen Svelne to destroy an alien infection that was destroying her blood cells, (COMIC: A Delicate Operation) helped to form an alliance between the Dramos and Galathon to save the dying Galathos with the Dramos' healing blood, (COMIC: Blood and Tears) and stopped bad-tempered TV chef Rammzi from taking over Terry's Café.

"Because now, Detective Inspector Bishop, there is no power on this Earth that can stop me!" (TV: The Idiot's Lantern)

The Doctor took Rose to Muswell Hill on the eve of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953, where people had been mysteriously taken from their homes. Taking the "domestic approach", the Doctor found Grandma Connolly's face had been completely removed, and that the same had happened to the others who had been kidnapped.

After Rose also had had her face taken, the Doctor discovered that the Wire was using the coronation to feed on the electrical activity of the brain, "taking people's faces, their essences", using Mr Magpie to do so. After nearly being consumed himself, the Doctor found the Wire and Magpie up Alexandra Palace and climbed after them to prevent the Wire from becoming manifest again by converting the "big transmitter" into a receiver of all of the faces of the people watching the coronation. With Tommy Connolly's help, he turned the receiver back into a transmitter and trapped the Wire's electrical signal onto a video cassette, freeing everyone, including Rose and Grandma Connolly. (TV: The Idiot's Lantern)

The Doctor and Rose investigated an alien insect that was kidnapping youths and replacing their blood cells with its own, burnt down the house that the insect was stationed, killing it. (PROSE: Cuckoo-Spit)

The Doctor next took Rose to Phostris to meet the first humans in history who travelled through hyperspace. He found the human pioneers had been reduced to a life of slavery by a super-intelligent cat called Mitzi, who had drifted through hyperspace and gained intelligence and superiority. He stopped her from torturing the population into slavery and foiled her attack on Earth by breaking her connection with hyperspace, which reduced her to a normal cat. After discovering Mitzi was actually Rose's childhood cat Puffin, he left the cat on the Powell Estate in the 1990s to be adopted by a young Rose. (PROSE: The Cat Came Back)

In the city of Vanezia, the Doctor and Rose allied with future musical hit Fredrick Gobbo to investigate an opera house that shouldn't have been located in Vanezia. They found the owner, Magrillo, was draining people's energy to power a machine called the Orchestra, which transmitted mathematic aquations into space. The Doctor overloaded the machine by getting Fredrick to sing a bad song, destroying it and killing Magrillo. After this, he discovered the Orchestra had turned Fredrick into the musical talent he was destined to become. (COMIC: Opera of Doom!)

The Doctor and Rose contemplate a future without the TARDIS. (TV: The Impossible Planet)

The Doctor and Rose landed inside Sanctuary Base 6 on Krop Tor, a planet that was in perpetual orbit around the black hole K37 Gem 5, and lost the TARDIS following an earthquake. The humans of Sanctuary Base 6, having come to Krop Tor to discover the source of power emanating from the planet's core which allowed the planet to orbit the black hole, refused to divert their drill to collect the TARDIS. In the base, the Beast had been terrorising the explorers and possessing their servants, the Ood. The Doctor and Ida Scott, the science officer of Sanctuary Base 6, descended into the core of the planet and discovered a pit which had started opening. (TV: The Impossible Planet)

"If they get back in touch, if you talk to Rose, just tell her, tell her...oh, she knows..." (TV: The Satan Pit)

With the transport tube back to the surface rendered unusable by the Beast, the Doctor decided to descend into the pit alone. Inside, he came face-to-face with the Beast and tried conversing, though its consciousness had already escaped to Toby Zed, the expedition's archaeologist. Realising the Beast's jailers thought of the Beast's escape, the Doctor shattered the vase keeping the planet orbiting the black hole. At the same time, Toby was ejected from the Sanctuary Base 6 rocket by Rose. Though willing to "go along for the ride", the Doctor discovered his TARDIS by accident; he saved Ida Scott, but didn't have enough time to rescue the Ood. Towing the rocket safely away from the black hole, the Doctor "swapped passengers" and resumed his travels with Rose. (TV: The Satan Pit)

The Doctor and Rose were in a chase with a Hoix, where the Doctor briefly re-encountered an adult Elton Pope, but Elton ran away as the Doctor and Rose left in the TARDIS.

He unwittingly saved Elton from being absorbed by Victor Kennedy after arriving. Kennedy tried threatening Elton's life so he could take over the TARDIS, but the Doctor refused. He told Kennedy that the members of LINDA, who had already been absorbed, would have had something to say about absorbing Elton. They pulled at Kennedy's stomach, causing him to drop his cane. Elton broke the cane's limitation field that was preventing the ground from absorbing him. Though he couldn't save the others' lives, the Doctor brought the consciousness of Ursula Blake back, but stuck as a face on piece of concrete. He then told Elton the truth about his mother's death. (TV: Love & Monsters)

(COMIC: Interstellar Overdrive)

The Doctor at the Olympics. (TV: Fear Her)

The Doctor and Rose went to 2012 to see the Olympics, where they met Chloe Webber, a girl who had been possessed by a lone Isolus, who was trapping other children from her street in drawings to give the Isolus company. Despite attempting to help the Isolus, the Doctor was trapped in a drawing, along with the TARDIS. Inside the drawing, the Doctor was able to draw a depiction of the Olympic torch and pointed at it to aid Rose. Once Rose tossed the Isolus' pod into the Olympic flame to recharge it, the Doctor and the children were freed from the drawing. As the torch bearer had been injured by the pod, the Doctor took his place, lighting the Olympic flame himself.

The Battle of Canary Wharf

The Doctor dons his 3D specs to identify "void stuff" during a ghost shift. (TV: Army of Ghosts)

On a routine return visit to the Powell Estate, the Doctor and Rose found the entire planet was being visited by beings believed to be ghosts. The Doctor tracked the signal to Torchwood Tower in Canary Wharf and was taken prisoner by Yvonne Hartman, leader of the Torchwood Institute. He strongly opposed their use of "ghost shifts" for a power source, as it was ripping a hole between parallel worlds which increased in size with every iteration. The original tear was caused by "the Sphere", an object the Doctor identified as a Void Ship. Two computer technicians, secretly under the control of Cybermen, restarted the ghost shift. The ghosts, who were actually Cybermen, came from the parallel world where the Doctor and Rose had left Mickey. As the Cyberman invasion of Earth began, the void ship opened, revealing the Cult of Skaro, a group of Daleks with a Genesis Ark. (TV: Army of Ghosts) The Genesis Ark was Time Lord technology, a prison ship containing millions of Daleks captured by the Time Lords.

The Doctor realises he's lost Rose. (TV: Doomsday)

As Daleks and Cybermen waged war with each other, the Doctor was transported back to the Cybermen's original universe, where he reunited with Pete Tyler at that universe's Torchwood, where the People's Republic took over when the Preachers knew what it was doing. With them alongside him, the Doctor returned to the his universe. With the help of a short alliance between the Cybermen and the Preachers, the Doctor rescued Rose and Mickey, who had found his way back to the main universe, from their imprisonment by the Cult of Skaro. In the confusion, Mickey accidentally opened the Genesis Ark and released millions of Daleks. The group then saved Jackie from being upgraded by the Cybermen; Jackie and the parallel Pete had an emotional "reunion" and kissed.

To defeat his warring enemies, the Doctor needed to open the Void;l doing so would suck anything covered in "Void stuff" into it and seal off the two universes for good. Realising that Rose was also covered in Void energy, the Doctor sent an unwilling Rose, along with Mickey, Pete, Jackie and the Preachers, back to the parallel Earth, where they would be safe, but Rose refused to leave the Doctor and returned, knowing she would never see her family again. Together, the Doctor and Rose opened the Void and the Daleks and Cybermen were sucked in. The plan initially went smoothly, until Rose's lever malfunctioned, threatening to halt the operation. Rose secured the lever, but couldn't keep her grip. She was saved at the last second by her parallel father and taken back across to the other universe, separating her from the Doctor. (TV: Doomsday)

Grieving for Rose

Journeying on without Rose, the Doctor nearly fell off a cliff on the planet Hondran, but was saved by Kara McGravy. After finding Hondran overrun by the Untra, the Doctor managed to lure them to the edge of a cliff, and allowed carnivorous snake-like plants to eat them. (COMIC: The Hunters)

Following a distress signal, the Doctor began investigating disappearances in a small English village. Aided by Brynn, the last child in the village, he discovered a dying crashed sentient spaceship was abducting children to keep itself entertained with their imaginations. Brynn allowed the ship to feast on his imagination to "finish the story", allowing it to die happily and releasing all the children it had taken. (PROSE: Once Upon a Time)

The Doctor discovered the Floof, a species with the ability to hide in plain sight, had been stalking a man called Tom. Befriending Tom, the Doctor realised the Floof had developed a psychic link with Tom and was unwilling to let him go, killing Tom's wife. Enraged, the Doctor punished the Floof by separating it from Tom, condemning it to eternal loneliness. (PROSE: Corner of the Eye)

The Doctor says goodbye to Rose. (TV: Doomsday)

Still devastated, the Doctor met Rose one last time on Dårlig Ulv Stranden in Norway; he was projecting a hologram of himself through the last crack in the universe leading to where Rose was. He had parked the TARDIS in orbit around a supernova for enough power to say goodbye. Rose finally told the Doctor that she was in love with him, but before he could confess an attraction to her, the connection was lost. The Doctor was left alone and teary-eyed, (TV: Doomsday) until Donna Noble appeared inside the TARDIS during her wedding to Lance Bennett, (TV: Doomsday, The Runaway Bride) without explanation, and loudly protested at where she had ended up, putting the Doctor in a state of bafflement. (TV: Doomsday)

The Doctor and his new friend watch the Earth's creation. (TV: The Runaway Bride)

While trying to return her to the ceremony on Christmas Eve, 2007, the Doctor chased a taxi across the motorway in the TARDIS when Donna was kidnapped by robot Santas. Successful in saving her, he returned her to her wedding reception, where the robot Santas attacked with bombs disguised as Christmas baubles. The Doctor destroyed the attack force and went with Donna and Lance to H.C. Clements, which had a basement leading to a secret Torchwood base underneath the Thames.

(TV: The Sound of Drums) As the Toclafane began slaughtering the population, the Doctor sent Martha away with Jack's vortex manipulator after whispering his plan to thwart the Master into her ear. (TV: The Sound of Drums, Last of the Time Lords)

The Doctor, having been further aged by the Master. (TV: Last of the Time Lords)

Being kept prisoner aboard the Valiant for a year, the Doctor, Jack and the Jones family witnessed the Master and the Toclafane devastate Earth's civilisations, such as Japan, and reduce the human race to camps of survivors, while the Doctor finally realised that the Toclafane were the humans he had encountered at the end of the universe, and began to telepathically hack into the Archangel Network.

After Martha return to the United Kingsom, the Doctor was further aged into a diminutive body by the Master to spite Martha. When Martha allowed herself to be taken to the Master for execution, she and the Doctor revealed their plan; using the Archangel Network, the Doctor harnessed the psychic energy of humanity's hope, as Martha had spent a year travelling the world telling humanity about his importance to them, regaining his youthful appearance in the process. He then forgave the Master for everything he did, inflicted a blow to the Master's ego. On the Doctor's orders, Jack destroyed the paradox machine keeping the Toclafane in the present, undoing the entire year; time resumed for everyone else right after the president was killed, but those on the Valiant retained their memories due to being at the "eye of the storm".

However, while the Doctor planned to keep the Master his prisoner, Lucy Saxon, the Master's human wife, shot him, and the Master refused to regenerate to spite him, and died in the Doctor's arms, devastating him. After burning his old friend's body, the Doctor offered Jack the chance to rejoin him on the TARDIS, but Jack declined, saying that his Torchwood team needed him. (TV: Last of the Time Lords)

Repairing the TARDIS, but forgetting to put his shield's back up, (TV: Time Crash) the Doctor prepared to depart with Martha, but found she also wished to leave him to help her family recover from the year-long ordeal they had suffered, and also told him she was in love with him, but knew he'd never return her feelings. However, she gave him her upgraded mobile phone so that she could call him if trouble arose. (TV: Last of the Time Lords)

Shields down

The Doctor examines his previous incarnation's bald spot. (TV: Time Crash)

Immediately after Martha left, the Doctor crashed his TARDIS into that of his fifth incarnation's, which put the universe in danger of being sucked into a Belgium-sized black hole. However, the Doctor used his memory of the event from his fifth incarnation's viewpoint to create a supernova at the exact same moment the black hole appeared. After giving a heart-felt speech of appreciation to his past self, the Doctors' TARDISes separated and the two parted ways. (TV: Time Crash) Before he could turn the TARDIS' shields back on, the spaceship Titanic crashed through the walls. (TV: Last of the Time Lords, Time Crash)

After fixing the damage to his TARDIS, the Doctor attended a party on the Titanic on Christmas Eve, 2008, where he befriended Morvin and Foon Van Hoff and a waitress named Astrid Peth. During a brief trip to Earth with Astrid, the Van Hoffs, Mr. Copper, and a Zocci named Bannakaffalatta, the Doctor also met Wilfred Mott.

When the ship's owner, Max Capricorn, had a meteor shower purposely crash into the Titanic so that it would crash on Earth and wipe out six billion humans, the Doctor took command of his surviving friends, and an arrogant businessman named Rickston Slade, and tried to lead to safety. However, Morvin died, and Foon and Bannakaffalatta gave their lives to save the others. Whilst his party of three survivors reached the flight deck, the Doctor was taken prisoner by Max and was nearly killed by the Heavenly Host on Max's orders. He was saved by Astrid, who lifted Max, with a forklift, taking him with her into the Titanic's nuclear storm drive. With Max dead, the Hosts regognised the Doctor has the new authority and too him to the steering wheel, where he, alongside Midshipman Alonso Frame, stopped the Titanic from crashing into Buckingham Palace.

Using Astrid's teleport bracelet, the Doctor managed to bring Astrid back, but only as a partially cohensive form. Devastated, he kissed her goodbye and allowed her atoms to scatter into space to see the universe. The Doctor then went to Earth with Mr. Copper to find his TARDIS. The Doctor rejected Copper's request to travel with him, though Copper had accidentally brought more than enough credit to get on Earth. After Copper left to start a new life on Earth, the Doctor set out on his own. (TV: Voyage of the Damned)

Traveling alone

Traveling on his own again, the Doctor recommended Martha Jones for a job at UNIT, as a way of thanking her for everything she had done for him. (TV: Reset, The Sontaran Stratagem)

Whilst travelling, the Doctor was contacted by Martha Jones via the TARDIS telepathic circuits. After reuniting with her, they were chased into the TARDIS by the Cybermen, where the Doctor uncovered the truth: the Cybermen were actually psychic projections and Martha was actually being impersonated by the Beast. As the Beast took control of the TARDIS, the Doctor tricked the Beast into turning into Martha again and ejected him into the time vortex, defeating him once again.

Ramadra connected the two halves, allowing the Omikron invasion force to flood through to Earth. The Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to temporarily reverse the fold between Omikron and Earth, closing the rift before all of the invasion force could pass through. Pursued by the force already on Earth, the Doctor and Tom seized the recovering space-folder from Ramadra. Ramadra overpowered the Doctor, Tom appealed to his little dog Sammy, lost in Ramadra.

The Doctor and Donna witness the departure of the Adipose. (TV: Partners in Crime)

While investigating Adipose Industries, the Doctor was reunited with Donna Noble, who had spent months searching for him as she had come to regret rejecting his offer to travel with him. With Donna's help, he used two Adipose Industries pendants to prevent a million Londoners from being killed and their organs and skeletons converted into Adipose babies. The Doctor tried to save the life of Matron Cofelia, the foster mother to the few thousand Adipose that made it through before the birthing stopped, but the Adiposian First Family's ship dropped her as it took aboard the incomplete harvest of Adipose, killing her.

Deciding to take Donna on as a companion, the Doctor and Donna were both quick to rule out the possibility of a romantic involvement, making their companionship dynamically different from those of Rose and Martha. This was something the Doctor had been wishing for: just a friend, no romantic difficulties. He flew the TARDIS to where her grandfather Wilfred was looking at the stars through his telescope, waving to him along with Donna before heading off into the stars. (TV: Partners in Crime)

The Doctor and Donna discover they are in Pompeii. (TV: The Fires of Pompeii)

Discovering they had landed a day before "Volcano Day" in 79 Pompeii, the Doctor tried rushing Donna back to the TARDIS. However, he was constantly pestered by her to try saving the citizens. Being a Time Lord, the Doctor strongly opposed her suggestion to change history. Initially determined to escape, he took an interest in how the Sibylline Sisterhood were able to accurately foretell the future, learning they were turning to stone. The Doctor discovered Pyroviles were attempting to take over the Earth after losing their own world by converting humans into their own kind. Having the choice between the death of the entire world or of the thousands in Pompeii, the Doctor made Vesuvius erupt and destroyed the Pyroviles.

Because of their deed, he and Donna became the Caeciliusia's household gods. (TV: The Fires of Pompeii)

The Doctor and Donna examine Delta Fifty. (TV: Planet of the Ood)

In 4126, the Doctor took Donna to the Ood Sphere, homeworld of the Ood he had encountered on Sanctuary Base 6. He discovered that the Ood of the Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire were actually slaves instead of servants and helped free them by opening the field blocking the Ood Brain, the "third element" of Oodkind's minds.

He and Donna regained the TARDIS, and the Horobot crashed Silas' ship into the desert to prevent his escape. (COMIC: Any Old Iron/Merchant of Menace)

At Donna's request, the Doctor took her to Hollywood in 2012. There, they discovered Amelia Hubble, a creature capable of sucking thoughts and ideas out of the brain, had brought the town to a standstill.

The Doctor encounters Sontarans. (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem)

Whilst trying to teach Donna how to pilot the TARDIS, the Doctor received a call from Martha Jones, who led him back to UNIT in 2009 to investigate 52 simultaneous ATMOS-related deaths across the Earth. Alongside Private Ross Jenkins, the Doctor discovered the Sontarans were working with teenage genius Luke Rattigan to create ATMOS; they also replaced Martha with a clone, to keep them updated on the movements of the Doctor and UNIT. (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem) The sezerfine gas was emitted from ATMOS-equipped cars across the Earth to be used to breed more Sontarans for the war against the Rutans. After finding and freeing the real Martha (he immediately knew she was replaced), the Doctor used an atmospheric converter, built by the students at Luke's school for gifted children, to ignite the atmosphere, destroying the gas. The Sontarans' next plan was to simply conquer Earth. Rattigan, having been betrayed by the Sontarans, sacrificed his life, swapping places with the Doctor at the last minute to destroy the flagship with the converter. (TV: The Poison Sky)

Directly following this, the TARDIS unexpectedly transported the Doctor, Donna and an unwilling Martha to the planet Messaline in the year 6012. There, DNA was stolen from the Doctor and replicated to produce Jenny, his biological "daughter". Paradoxically, it was Jenny's creation which brought the TARDIS to Messaline to begin with. Initially critical of the girl due to her predilection for violence and reminded of the loss of his other children and grandchildren, the Doctor came to feel for his daughter after much persuasion and help from Donna. The Doctor activated the Source, a terraforming device that had become a subject of mythology. Messaline became inhabitable and the war between humans and Hath on the planet ended. Before the Doctor could take Jenny aboard the TARDIS, she was shot by General Cobb, stepping in to save the Doctor's life. The heartbroken Doctor overcame his desire to shoot Cobb dead in cold blood. However, he used his resistance in order to help found a new society on the planet. Martha returned to her fiancé Tom Milligan, as she had been taken there by mistake. The Doctor travelled on with Donna, with the burden of another lost loved one, unaware that his daughter had actually survived and was travelling across the universe in search of adventures, just like him. (TV: The Doctor's Daughter)

The Doctor and Donna meet Agatha Christie. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp)

The Doctor was part of a murder mystery in Eddison Manor in 1926. Working with yet another of his favourite authors, Agatha Christie, the Doctor discovered Arnold Golightly, a half Vespiform - half human, was turned into a murderer when the Firestone mentally connected him to Agatha. The Firestone gave him the wrong template on how the world worked, and he imitated the murder methods in Agatha's books. When Donna threw the gem into a lake, with Golighty going after it, the connection caused temporary amnesia in Christie, and the Doctor dropped her off in the Harrogate Hotel. He also showed Donna that Agatha's work would be read for a long time by showing her a volume he got in 5,000,000,000. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp)

The Doctor and River try to figure out the mystery of the Library. (TV: Silence in the Library)

The Doctor received a message on his psychic paper from Professor River Song, a "very important" woman from his future. She called him to the Library in the 51st century to help a team of archaeologists representing the Felman Lux Corporation to investigate the planet, which had been sealed off a century earlier with the message "4022 saved. No survivors." However, she called him at a point where he had no idea who she was. The group discovered the Library infested by Vashta Nerada. The Doctor teleported Donna back to the TARDIS with the shop's teleporters, but she failed to make it. (TV: Silence in the Library) She was "saved" inside the Library's core. River gained the Doctor's trust by revealing to him that she knew his real name, which deeply shocked the Doctor. The Doctor realised that the 4022 people being "saved" meant they were inside the core.

Angered by them devouring Anita, the Doctor asked the Vashta Nerada to look him up in the Library's history books. The swarm backed down for a day to give the Doctor time to save the people in the Core before the Library detonated. River knocked out the Doctor and handcuffed him, sacrificing herself to boost the Library's memory, which devastated the Doctor as he began to realise how important she would be to him in the future. This returned the 4000 people who were saved in the Library's core, including Donna.

The Doctor, inspired by her faith in him, saved River Song by preserving her data ghost, saved in the sonic screwdriver by his future self, into the core's virtual reality, and travelled on with Donna to find the "next chapter" in his long life. (TV: Forest of the Dead)

The Doctor next took Donna to a leisure planet called Splendorosa, where they visited a floating city called Coral. Intrigued by the city, the Doctor went undercover at GeoCorp, the company responsible for the city's position in the sky. He came into conflict with the company's CEO, Volsairius Trefgar. He and Donna uncovered a plot to "steal" Splendorosa by Trefgar and the war-like Sarriflex, who intended to transport the planet to a galaxy at war in order to use it as a weapon. The Doctor stopped them by disrupting their ships, bringing Coral City back to the land in the process. However, he and Donna, instead of being honoured for saving the population from a deadly war, were chased out of the city by a lynch mob, as the population had grown fond of "living in the sky". (PROSE: Grand Theft Planet!)

Before the creature could trick the passengers into throwing out the Doctor, Sky was dragged out into the X-tonic sunlight by the bus' hostess, who realised that Sky was stealing the Doctor's voice, and the creature departed, its plans defeated. (TV: Midnight)

After a turbulent ride in the vortex, the Doctor crashed the TARDIS at a science convention, where he and Donna witnessed Professor Eustace Krosson invent a wave-time vector detector that unleashed the Imago, parasites from the fourth dimension who devoured people's personal timelines.

In this alternate universe, she met Rose Tyler, who had crossed from "her universe" to restore the timeline. She told her two words to tell the Doctor. After Donna corrected the universe by killing herself in the alternative universe, she was able to tell the Doctor the message, "Bad Wolf" - it meant the end of the universe. (TV: Turn Left)

Reunions and farewells

Realising the barriers of countless universes were breaking down, the Doctor rushed back to 2009 Earth. He found that everything was normal, but when they re-entered the TARDIS, the planet vanished. Finding no clue as to its location and fearful for his various human allies, he went to the Shadow Proclamation and learned twenty-seven planets had been stolen. With the cooperation of old friends Harriet Jones, Jack Harkness and his Torchwood team, Sarah Jane Smith, Luke Smith, Martha Jones, Mr Smith and Rose Tyler, his Children of Time, he was contacted. He locked onto the location of the Earth by following the trail of the Tandocca Scale left by the missing Earth as well as the Children of Time's signal. He discovered Earth had been stolen by the, now mighty, Dalek Empire - and Davros, who had been saved from the Last Great Time War by Dalek Caan at the cost of Caan's own sanity.

The Doctor crosses paths with a sorely missed companion, but the happy reunion is tragically interrupted. (TV: The Stolen Earth)

After landing on a ravaged Earth, he finally reunited with his beloved Rose. As they began running towards each other, a Dalek appeared. Jack destroyed it, but not before it had mortally wounded the Doctor. Taken into the TARDIS, the Doctor had his long awaited reunion with Rose, before the pain of being shot by a Dalek forced him to regenerate. (TV: The Stolen Earth)

Using his nearby severed hand from his swordfight with Fadros Pallujikaa, the Doctor used his eleventh regeneration to heal himself, but not to regenerate into a new form. (Nearing the end of his first regeneration cycle, the Eleventh Doctor described this as indicative of "vanity issues.") The TARDIS was taken aboard the Dalek ship Crucible, where the Doctor, Rose and Jack were captured. Donna was locked inside the TARDIS, which was sent to be destroyed in the Crucible's pit. As a result of this, a new Doctor was born from his severed hand when Donna touched it. The meta-crisis made Donna part-Time Lord, becoming the DoctorDonna of the Ood prophecy. He saved the TARDIS, but the "real" Doctor believed he had lost Donna and his ship. As the Children of Time gathered on the Crucible, Davros forced the Doctor to remember everyone who had died in his name and how he had turned all of his companions into weapons and willing murderers, which unveiled the Doctor's "soul". DoctorDonna disabled the planet powered reality bomb to stop Davros from destroying reality itself and the "three Doctors" and his companions overpowered the Daleks and sent the planets back to their original time and place. Whilst the Doctor worked on returning Earth home, the meta-crisis committed genocide against the Daleks, which horrified the Doctor.

The Doctor, heartbroken and discouraged after the loss of Donna (TV: Journey's End)

As the Doctor's companions retreated to the TARDIS, the Doctor offered to save Davros and Caan. Davros refused, hatefully denouncing the Doctor as "the destroyer of worlds", while Caan predicted that one of the Doctor's companions would perish. The Children of Time used the TARDIS to tow Earth back to its original point in time and space as the Crucible fell, killing Davros and the Daleks for good. The Doctor said his goodbyes to Sarah Jane, Martha, Jack and Mickey Smith before he left the meta-crisis Doctor in the Tylers' parallel world, hoping Rose would help him control his dangerous ways just as she had done to him in his ninth incarnation, sacrificing his own future with Rose. The meta-crisis Doctor whispered what the Doctor was going to say when they were separated and Rose and the meta-crisis Doctor kissed. Upon returning to his own universe, the Doctor was dealt another emotional blow as he was forced to remove all of Donna's Time Lord abilities and memories of travelling with him, as they would have killed her because her human body couldn't handle it. He returned Donna to Wilfred and her mother Sylvia, and told them they would have to make sure she never remembered him. After receiving comfort from Wilfred, the heartbroken Doctor was then left to travel on, alone and saddened at all the friends he had lost in such a short time. (TV: Journey's End)

Whilst grieving, the Doctor discovered Donna had recorded a message on Emergency Program One to say goodbye to him, knowing that one day she would be forced to leave him. (COMIC: The Time of My Life)

Soon after, the Doctor discovered Earth had been accidentally "sold" to the peace-loving Nin Confederacy by a human called Robbie, who had gained possession of the mobile of intergalactic estate agent Fliant Wormbleeder. Before he could save humanity from being exiled from their homeworld, the Doctor discovered two other, hostile, alien species, the Ssraarl and the Hoolox had also bought Earth. He failed to reason with them, but allied with the Nin to stop them from firing missiles at Earth. He stopped a war from breaking out by finding a new homeworld for the three species. (COMIC: The Day the Earth Was Sold/The King of Earth)

On a trip to a purple planet called Corah, the Doctor was arrested by Professor Slade and her crew on suspicion of murder. He found an energy-absorbing fugitive was turning the population to stone. On its trail, he and Slade's crew came across a lost Corah city that had been built by ancient Corah beings to combat the creature. Re-aligning their old machinery, he trapped the creature in the pools of Corah. (COMIC: The Guardians of Terror/The Rebirth of Corah)

Soon after, the Doctor began visiting Douglas Henderson throughout his life without ever having contact with him because he was secretly a doomsday weapon created during the Last Great Time War. However, when Douglas was middle-aged, the Doctor was forced to take Douglas aboard the TARDIS as a group of aliens had began hunting him so that they could use him as a weapon. The Doctor used Douglas to drain the aliens' powers, and soon after, he reset Douglas and allowed him to spend the rest of his life on Earth. (COMIC: The Big, Blue Box)

After arriving in New Memphis in 2487, the Doctor tried to stop a contagion called the Invisible Assassin, with the help a Nikki Jupiter and a Judoon called Rok Ma. (PROSE: Judgement of the Judoon)

Arriving in 1500 BC Greece, the Doctor thwarted a Slitheen plan to travel back in time and exchange food during a famine, for champions to fight for them in the Platonic War. (PROSE: The Slitheen Excursion)

When the TARDIS jumped a time track, the Doctor found himself on the planet Hurala during the Second Dalek War, where he encountered the crew of the bounty spaceship, the Wayfarer. The Doctor discovered that the Dalek empire had tried to exploit the Arkheon Threshold on the planet Arkheon, so they could have time travel. While on Arkheon, the Doctor encountered Dalek X and his flagship, the Exterminator. However, the Doctor destroyed Dalek X, the Exterminator and sealed the Arkheon Threshold. (PROSE: Prisoner of the Daleks)

Quest for the Eternity Crystal

After arriving on the Moon in the 30th century, the Doctor discovered a powerful device called the Eternity Crystal, created by the Karagulan society called the Darksmith Collective, for an undisclosed client. The Collective lost it. When they discovered it was located on the Moon, they sent an agent to collect it, but the Doctor had taken it to prevent them from having it. (PROSE: The Dust of Ages)

Whilst he was trying to understand the history of the Eternity Crystal, he travelled to the graveyard planet, Mordane, where its power had been tested by the Collective. However, the Crystal began to reanimate the dead bodies, but the Doctor managed to defeat them, and made them inanimate again. The Agent eventually arrived and took back the Crystal on behalf of the Collective. (PROSE: The Graves of Mordane)

In pursuit of the Agent and the Crystal, the Doctor arrived on the homeworld of the Darksmith Collective, Karagula. When the Doctor accessed the Darksmith's underground base via the Dark Cathedral, he retrieved the Crystal. In an attempt to understand the Crystal's purpose, he wanted to track down the person who initially constructed the Crystal, Brother Varlos, former member of the Darksmith Collective. (PROSE: The Colour of Darkness)

After tracing Varlos, the Doctor arrived in an underwater base on Flydon Maxima. However, the Collective dispatched a military force called the Dreadbringers to retrieve the Crystal, and the Doctor battled the native lifeform of Flydon, the Blaska. He discovered that Varlos had already departed from Flydon, and left behind his daughter called Gisella. Gisella told him that Varlos was the person who buried the Eternity Crystal on the Moon, because he realised that the Crystal was uncontrollable, and left it behind until he could find a way to destroy it. She told the Doctor that Varlos had travelled back in time, and settled in 1895 Paris. (PROSE: The Depths of Despair)

Arriving in Paris, the Doctor and Gisella found Varlos living under the alias Baron De Guerre, who was killed by a Time Vampire that was pursuing Varlos through the Time Vortex. He began investigating the deaths caused by the vampire, with the assistance of Inspector DuPont, who helped them discover that the vampire was an artificial alien, created by the crew of a spaceship to collect energy to refuel it. However, when it had amassed enough energy, it returned to the ship to discover the crew had already died. Reverting to its sole purpose of gathering even more energy, and without the means to discharge the energy, the creature became unstable. To defeat the vampire, Varlos gave his own life when he drained the vampire's time-energy using his own body, a mock Eternity Crystal and Gisella. (PROSE: The Vampire of Paris)

The Doctor began tracking the Agent across the Milky Way, and followed him to the Silver Devastation. The Doctor arrived in Devastation Hall during the Game of Death, an event devised by the Nocturn to lure humans. He found out that the Agent was destroyed by the Nocturn, Zalenby. The Doctor and Gisella departed and avoided being killed by the Nocturnes in the Game of Death. (PROSE: The Game of Death)

To find out who employed the Darksmith Collective to construct the Eternity Crystal, the Doctor and Gisella arrived on Ursulonamex, where the Collective met with their clients. Expecting the planet to be lush and beautiful, upon arrival they found that it had been scorched and charred by the clients to remove all trace of their arrival. The Doctor learnt from survivors that evidence of their identity might exist in an observation station in orbit around Ursulonamex. On board the station, the Doctor found a Dravidian Hive, but the Doctor and Gisella escaped from them, and were unable to uncover any evidence about the Collective's mysterious clients. (PROSE: The Planet of Oblivion)

While in flight, the TARDIS was captured by the Shadow Proclamation, and the Doctor was put on trial where the Crystal was legally returned to Gisella. This was because Gisella was Varlos' daughter, and it was officially his property, so its ownership naturally passed on to Gisella. However, Gisella betrayed the Doctor, when she handed over the Eternity Crystal to the Collective. Although, she accidentally revealed the Darksmith's secret rendezvous point, the location where they were meeting their infamous clients. (PROSE: The Pictures of Emptiness)

The Doctor arrived in the designated location, which was London in 2009. Whilst he was there, he discovered that the clients were really the Krashok. He also found out that Gisella was an android all along, who was created by Varlos, and who had been reprogrammed by the Darksmith Collective to give them the Eternity Crystal when she and the Doctor collected it. When Gisella and the High Minister of the Collective, Drakon, handed over the Crystal to the Krashok, Drakon was killed as soon as he fulfilled the deal, which broke the Collective's conditioning over her. (PROSE: The Art of War)

The Doctor discovered that the Krashok planned to use the Crystal to target their fallen warriors and to resurrect them, making them an invincible fighting force. They intended to detonate the Eternity Crystal unless the Doctor stopped them. To give him an incentive to do so, they trapped Gisella on their ship, aware that he wouldn't let her die, despite being an android that had been hoodwinked by the Collective. However, the Doctor eventually rescued Gisella, defeated the Krashoks and the Darksmith Collective, and destroyed the Eternity Crystal in the process. After the Doctor had completed his mission with the Eternity Crystal, he left Gisella behind to live out a normal life as an android. (PROSE: The End of Time)

The end is nearing

The Doctor with Christina on San Helios. (TV: Planet of the Dead)

Soon after, the Doctor travelled to London in 2009 at Easter, investigating strange readings on a bus. While he investigated, the bus hurtled through a wormhole to reappear on San Helios. On the bus, he met enigmatic jewel thief, Lady Christina de Souza, and cooperated with her, along with UNIT, to return the bus and its occupants to Earth and stop the Swarm from invading. Before leaving in the TARDIS, the Doctor rejected Christina's offer of companionship, stating that he had lost everyone who travelled with him and he had sworn never to put himself through the heartache again. Carmen, a low level psychic who aided the Doctor, offered a prophecy. She told him, "Your song is ending sir, It is returning. It is returning through the dark, oh but then... he will knock four times". Christina was arrested for multiple thefts, but the Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to aid her escape in the bus. When the Doctor was about to be arrested for helping Christina, he entered the "police box" to "arrest himself" and left. (TV: Planet of the Dead)

During the 26th century, the Doctor arrived to investigate the appearance of Sontarans and Rutans on the planet, Chelsea 426, during the Chelsea Flower Show. He was assisted by Jake Carstairs, Vienna Carstairs and Wallace Fitch. (PROSE: The Taking of Chelsea 426)

In 2013, the Doctor foiled an Auton invasion in the Hyperville shopping complex, with the help of Kate Maguire, who had met the Doctor previously in 2009 (from her perspective). (PROSE: Autonomy)

On 16 July 1969, the Doctor went to the Kennedy Space Center to witness the launch of the Saturn V rocket containing the Apollo 11 pod, which contained, "for the first time in humanity's history", men who would walk on the Moon. Following the launch, the Doctor spotted a black limousine headed for Mission Control.

The Doctor used his psychic paper to beat the mysterious agents inside and investigate. Mission Control had received an unearthly chord coming from an undetectable frequency. The Doctor knew the transmission wasn't a Russian attack, but an alien language. The agents from the limousine, Spencer and Milledge, took charge of this attempted first contact under protocols from Revised Project Blue Book.

The following day, the Doctor revealed he knew what the transmission was: a peaceful offer of technology and knowledge from an alien species. The Doctor, upon learning the secret service had known about the transmission from before the Kennedy presidency, realised the agents were going to use the knowledge imparted by the aliens against the Russians in the Cold War "[t]o try and pervert a pure and innocent gesture of faith into a weapon to win a war". The Doctor picked up a dictaphone, and asked one of Mission Control, Justin, to turn up the speakers loud so he could record it on his dictaphone. Once the recording was made, the Doctor surrendered himself and was knocked out by the agents and put in one of the offices, along with Justin for aiding and abetting him.

On 20 July, while the agents were too busy monitoring the Moon landing, Mission Commander Cliff Boxworth broke the Doctor out of prison and showed him the back exit. Running inside the TARDIS, the Doctor used the TARDIS' translation circuit to create a visualisation of the dictaphone's message, as the message's frequency couldn't be traced. The Doctor dug out this message on the Moon's surface and made contact with the alien flying saucer, telling them that humanity needed to find their own way. Before departing in the TARDIS, the Doctor watched Neil Armstrong's first steps on the Moon as Neil exited Apollo 11. (PROSE: Blue Moon)

The Doctor caused a change in a timeline that resulted in an old friend of his called Carla disappearing. Per Carla's request, the Doctor spent "years" searching for what became of Carla in the new timeline, eventually locating her. (PROSE: The Haldenmor Fugue)

He once again encountered the Krillitanes in Worcester in 1140. He found them half-way to the stage he saw them in when he met Sarah Jane Smith during his investigation. Once again, the Doctor defeated them with the help of their own oil. (PROSE: The Krillitane Storm)

The Doctor was brought back into Sarah Jane Smith's life when he crashed her wedding. He knew the Trickster, her arch-enemy, would try to get his revenge on her since his previous attempts to get rid of her failed. As he arrived, Sarah Jane and her fiancé, Peter Dalton, were taken by the Trickster. He was teleported to a nether realm along with K9, Rani Chandra and Clyde Langer, Sarah Jane's young companions, and Luke, Sarah's son and a member of his "Children of Time". He fought the Trickster, who hinted about his death, stating, "The gate is waiting". The TARDIS gave Clyde the power to control artron energy by mistake. Clyde defeated the Trickster with this energy, while the Doctor informed Sarah Jane what needed to be done. Peter sacrificed himself to destroy the Trickster, leaving Sarah Jane alone and heartbroken. When the world was restored, the Doctor visited 13 Bannerman Road and let Sarah Jane's friends look inside his TARDIS, after which he said farewell while sincerely asking Sarah Jane to never forget him and promising her he would see her again, still haunted by the loss of Donna Noble. (TV: The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith)

No song should end too soon

After defeating the Cerebravores in 21st century Brooklyn, the Doctor began traveling with Gabby Gonzalez. (COMIC: Revolutions of Terror)

The Crimson Hand

Majenta comes to terms with meeting the Doctor again. (COMIC: Thinktwice)

The Doctor re-encountered time-travelling businesswomen Majenta Pryce when he went undercover as a medical doctor at the Thinktwice Orbital Penitentiary, where she had been imprisoned thanks to his meddling in her "Hotel Historia" business. However, the harsh regime and crude psychological methods of the prison left Majenta with no memory of the Doctor or her life before their first meeting. The Doctor restored Majenta's memory of him, but could not restore anything else beyond their first encounter. Together, they uncovered the truth behind Thinktwice; it was being used by the Memeovax, who fed on the prisoners' memories. When one of the Memeovax tried to invade Majenta's mind, she unleashed a blast of power that destroyed all the Memeovax in Thinktwice Prison. Afterwards, the Doctor was ordered into helping Majenta to resolve her memory issues, reluctantly taking her aboard the TARDIS. (COMIC: Thinktwice)

Trying to take Majenta to Panacea — a healing world, where he planned to solve Majenta's memory problems, the Doctor instead landed the TARDIS in Stockbridge, where he was reunited with his old friend Maxwell Edison and saved Stockbridge village from the Lokhus of the Zytragupten. After this, the Doctor once again asked Maxwell to travel with him. Maxwell declined, instead opting to protect Stockbridge from aliens. (COMIC: The Stockbridge Child)

The Doctor and Majenta arrived at an apparently abandoned house on the edge of the Proxima System. The Doctor discovered a holographic party run by a digitised avatar of Wesley Sparks, founder of Sparktech. As events from decades before replayed in holographic form, the Doctor was astonished to learn Majenta had been a guest at the party as Wesley's best friend, business partner and fiancée. The real Majenta explored the house. She came upon the real Wesley Sparks, now a desiccated cyborg who had gone insane as he preserved himself with bionic parts, waiting for Majenta to return from "pressing business". He attempted to force Majenta into marrying him, but she was saved by the Doctor and Wesley's avatar, still the dignified host and gentleman he had been. Damaged in battle saving Majenta, the avatar begged Majenta to remember their lives together. Majenta tearfully broke down and embraced the avatar as it died. (COMIC: Mortal Beloved)

The Doctor investigates at UNIT's base underneath Sydney Harbour Bridge. (COMIC: The Age of Ice)

Still trying to take Majenta to Panacea, they got sidetracked and landed in Sydney, where they were taken into custody by UNIT's Australian branch. The Doctor was surprised to find the UNIT officer was Majenta's old confidante, Fanson, disguised by a perception filter. Fanson was now in the thrall of the Doctor's previous foe, the Skith Leader, who was secretly helping Fanson infiltrate the UNIT operation. Majenta was captured by the Skith General's rival forces, who were surprised to find themselves unable to access her mind. The Skith elected her as the perfect pilot for the prototype timeship (or SKARDIS), a replica of the Doctor's TARDIS, and converted her into a Skith Queen. While she was in this form, the Doctor convinced her to turn on the Skith and help UNIT destroy their ship. As the Skith ship fell, Fanson revealed that he was responsible for erasing her memory to spare her agony. Fanson died from injuries sustained at the hands of the Skith General, and the Doctor and Majenta fled, finally beginning to warm to each other. (COMIC: The Age of Ice)

The Doctor and Majenta next visited New Old Detroit, a planet in the Proxima System. There, they solved the final case of low-life private eye Johnny Seaview and wrested control of the World Bomb from a corrupt Alpha Centauran The Doctor triggered the World Bomb, transforming the slums of New Old Detroit into a world mapped on his memories of England. (COMIC: The Deep Hereafter)

The Doctor next took Majenta to Graveworld 909, where they stopped Prespero, the guardian of the planet who had taken away the population's speech following a galactic war. (COMIC: Onomatopoeia)

After that, the Doctor took Majenta to see the play The Mousetrap. In the London Underground they found "ghosts" saved by a being known as Mnemosyne. After they defeated Mnemosyne and after receiving another prophecy about his approaching demise, the Doctor decided to stick to his "no companions" rule and intended to take Majenta to Panacea. Before he could take her there, a fleet of ships surronded Earth, having finally tracked down him and Majenta. (COMIC: Ghosts of the Northern Line)

Majenta and the Doctor tried to escape in the TARDIS, but this failed as Intersol launched a tractor beam. The Doctor was captured and tortured by Finn Dargo and learned that Majenta was a member of the Crimson Hand, a highly dangerous criminal organisation. Majenta was mind-probed by Intersol's computer, Justice, and then attacked by her old cellmate, Zed. The Doctor convinced Zed into becoming his ally, helping him escape and save Majenta. However, the four remaining members of the Crimson Hand arrived, having followed the TARDIS around the universe. They killed most of Intersol's staff and took Majenta over again. As she was taken over, she teleported the Doctor and his TARDIS in a pocket dimension, making her Crimson Hand friends believe that she had turned the Doctor to ashes.

After the Crimson Hand members seized control of the whole universe, Majenta restored her homeworld of Vessica. It had been a planet of immense poverty; this changed when she used the Crimson Hand to make the planet rich again. The population rebelled against her and she brought the Doctor back into existence. After resisting the urge to use its power to bring back everyone he had lost, the Doctor and Majenta finally destroyed the Crimson Hand at the cost of Majenta's life. The Doctor resurrected her and placed her in the restored New Old Detroit. As long as the Doctor remembered her, she would stay alive. With his mission to help Majenta complete, the Doctor was left alone again. (COMIC: The Crimson Hand)

Meddling with time

The Doctor attended a celebrity party in Hollywood in 1926, where he met Archie Maplin, a young actress called Emily Winter and a runner called Matthew Finnegan. He drew the attention of Maximilian Love and Mr Leo Millar, two Terronites, who planned to transfer the hopes and dreams from young actors, such as Maplin and transplant them into themselves, because they were actors on Terron V. Offering himself for Maplin's safety, the Doctor's memories were too much for them, and inadvertently set fire to the building. The Doctor got them all safely out the building before it exploded. Outside they saw Miller escaping, but was eventually arrested by the police. As the Doctor headed back to the TARDIS, Matthew and Emily asked if they could join him, but he refused. However, as he was about to enter his ship, a temporal vortex opened up. From it emerged Judoon and a Shadow Architect, who arrested the Doctor for interfering in fixed points in times. (COMIC: Silver Scream)

The Doctor put on trial by the Shadow Proclamation. (COMIC: Fugitive)

The Doctor was placed on trial by the Shadow Proclamation for transgressing the Laws of Time and saving Emily's life when she should have died when the building was on fire. Krillitane leader Mr Finch was the Doctor's prosecutor and the Advocate was defence, but the Advocate was later killed. The Doctor was sentenced to imprisonment on Volag-Noc, and during the journey met a Draconian, a Sontaran and an Ogron. The Doctor's party took control of the ship. After this, the Doctor learned that his trial was set up to uncover Finch's plot, but he also found out that Finch was from a shapeshifting race called the Gizou, in disguise. The Doctor returned to 1926 Hollywood to collect the Terronite Transference machine, used to extract memories from the Doctor's mind. While there, he decided to break his "no companions rule" by inviting Matthew and Emily to travel with him, unaware that the Advocate had survived and was on the hunt for the Terronite machine in the Doctor's possessions. Before leaving, the Doctor received the "he will knock four times" prophecy again from the Judge responsible for his capture and trial, reminding him of his approaching death. (COMIC: Fugitive)

The Doctor, whose mind is instable, finds himself in an older model of the TARDIS. (COMIC: Tesseract)

The TARDIS was invaded by aliens called the Acari led by the Advocate, and were intent on killing the Doctor. The breach of the TARDIS by the Acari spaceship forced the TARDIS interior to rearrange itself, displacing the console room, and risking implosion. Since the Doctor was psychically linked to the TARDIS, the trauma of having the Acari ship aboard caused the Doctor to undergo mental instability and his past selves began to bleed through. The Advocate placed doubt into Matthew's mind about the Doctor's morality by urging him to read the secret diary previously belonging to Turlough. A being called the Tef'Aree appeared to Emily in the TARDIS. Emily helped the Doctor save the ship, and the Acari ship separated from the TARDIS, but not before the Advocate stole the Terronite technology. (COMIC: Tesseract)

The Doctor was summoned to Greenwich Park by Martha Jones and Captain Erisa Magambo working on behalf of UNIT, and claimed that the trees were attacking people. The tree trunks were marked with Enochian symbols, a language invented by mathematician and magician John Dee to converse with angels. The Doctor realised these "angels" were trapped beneath the observatory, but emerged through the trees in the park. The Doctor headed into the passages beneath the park to communicate with the "angels". In actuality, the aliens were waiting in suspended animation for the Doctor to free them. Believing the Enochia's story, the Doctor set them free, but it was a trick. John Dee trapped them, but they became free to take over all of the trees and conquer the Earth.

The Enochia realised the Doctor didn't remove the force field trapping it, so they threatened Emily. The Doctor and Emily escaped, but plunged down a hidden shaft into an ancient cavern where they discovered a stripped down colony ship containing thousands of Enochians in stasis. The Advocate arrived and opened the stasis pods, releasing the Enochia. The Enochia trapped Central London in a force field. The Advocate appeared to Martha and proposed a way of ending the crisis, by striking at the Enochian ship and planting a bomb in it. Martha found Emily and the Doctor, and they confronted the Advocate, but Magambo refused to allow him time to develop an alternative solution to the Enochia threat and insisted on following the Advocate's plan. When he resisted this option, she arrested the Doctor.

Martha and Emily rescued the Doctor. The Doctor arrived and launched the Enochia ship into space, which drew all the Enochian up with it, and removing the force field. The Advocate's bomb was no longer needed, but the countdown was accidentally started and the ship would explode, leaving a gardener called Mr Crane trapped inside, but the Doctor could do nothing to save him. The Advocate used Crane's death to finally destroy Matthew's faith in the Doctor and Matthew elected to leave the Doctor, and travel with the Advocate instead. After solving the crisis, the Doctor and Emily departed from London. (COMIC: Don't Step on the Grass)

After several adventures in the TARDIS, the Doctor and Emily arrived at the Shady Grove Rest Home in the 21st century where an old man named Barnaby Edwards celebrated his birthday. Although the Doctor didn't recognise him, Barnaby insisted he travelled with the Doctor when he was a young man. The Doctor gave Barnaby an envelope and told him to guard it with his life. He returned it to the Doctor before dying, contented. The Doctor wasn't upset - he knew he'd have the pleasure of meeting Barnaby as a young man sometime in his own future. Inside the envelope was the charred remains of Turlough's diary and a warning that Matthew Finnegan was in danger. The Doctor and Emily headed off to find him and to stop the Advocate's plans. (COMIC: Old Friend)

While exploring a war-torn planet, the Doctor and Emily encountered Robert Lewis and his colleagues: Eliza Cooper, Professor Alexander Hugh and Annabella Primavera from Oxford University in 1906. They were working for Torchwood, and were testing a time machine created from cannibalised alien technology, which inadvertantly transferred them through time and space to this planet. Their group was captured by inhabitants of the planet, called the Soul Free, who had been fighting with other inhabitants called Terror Farmers for thousands of years. The party, led by the Soul Free were led to a temple called Kol'Ne Wah, by the Gizou who impersonated Mr Finch during the Doctor's trial by the Shadow Proclamation, whose real name was Lau'Tan, and had been working against the Advocate since the trial.

They were attacked by the Terror Farmers, causing Annabella's death. Lau'Tan disguised himself as the Doctor and captured with Emily. The Doctor led the remaining group to the temple, where he discovered a lost expedition, who made contact with the Tef'Aree, who Emily had encountered in the TARDIS during the Acari incursion, and were in fact humans given a terraforming device with which they hoped to make the colony planet self-sufficient. After this discovery, the Doctor realised that the name "Terror Farmers" was a corruption of Terra Firma, likewise with the "Soul Free" (Sol Three).

The Doctor discovered that the Advocate planned to use Matthew's human DNA to reactivate the terraforming device which would wipe out the whole planet. Matthew and the Advocate teleported up to the orbiting terraforming device and the Doctor followed in the TARDIS. As the Advocate tried to get Matthew to activate the terraforming device, he finally revealed his true allegiance to Lau'Tan. She shot him Matthew, and used his palm to activate the device. The conflict on the ground between the Terror Farmers and the Soul Free was brought to an instant end as the device began to destroy everything on the planet.

Robert Lewis was destroyed by the terraforming beam, while Emily was saved from the blast by Turlough’s diary. The force field around the colony ship couldn't be repaired, but Lau'Tan realised it could be replaced. He transformed himself into a device to replace the damaged component and restart the shields while Emily got everyone safely inside. Matthew distracted the Doctor, grabbed the Advocate and deactivated the terraforming controls, but it backfired. Both Matthew and the Advocate died instantly, but both their minds merged together into a fifth-dimensional being called Tef'Aree. The Tef'Aree previously gave the Earth colonists the terraforming technology, revived the Advocate and had generally manipulated events surrounding the Doctor, so that he could bring about his own creation. When the Doctor tried to scold the Tef'Aree, it vanished. Before deactivation, the terraforming beam destroyed the forcefield equipment, in turn, destroying Lau'Tan. However, many of the Soul Free and Terror Farmers were saved by his action, being protected by the forcefield. Eliza elected to remain and help to rebuild the planet, and build diplomatic relations between both factions. Upon discovering that the planet was called Terron V, he realised that both groups would unite, and eventually become the Terronites, who the Doctor fought in the form of Maximilian Love and Mr Leo Millar in Hollywood in 1926.

The Doctor took Professor Hugh and Emily back to 1906 Oxford in the TARDIS. There he explained that Annabella Primavera, like Emily, was a fixed point in time, but while Emily was supposed to have died, Annabella was supposed to have lived. Therefore, Emily had to live on Earth, and take her place to mend the web of time. Before she departed, Emily gave him Turlough's scorched diary, which he would later give to Barnaby Edwards, and the Doctor left for a trip to Mars. (COMIC: Final Sacrifice)

Time Lord Victorious. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

On his trip to Mars in 2059, the Doctor met the crew of Bowie Base One led by Adelaide Brooke, who he greatly admired. He knew the crew of Bowie Base One would die, as it was one of the most crucial events in humanity's expansion through the universe. He learned that the crew died due to the Flood, which possessed six of them. He was initially unwilling to interfere in events due to his belief that the event was a fixed point in time (Adelaide's death causing her grand daughter to be inspired and explore the stars), but he became integrated in the events of Bowie Base One. He attempted to leave, but his resistance towards helping was eroding fast as the screams of the Bowie Base crew reminded him of the billions of deaths he had lived through and what it had left him with.

The Doctor realises the consequences of his actions. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

Enraged and driven mad by his power as the last of the Time Lords, he saved Adelaide and her last crew-members, Mia and Yuri, and took them back to Earth. Adelaide was furious at the Doctor's interference and scolded him for thinking himself above obeying history's course. Confident that the laws of time were his, the Doctor sent Adelaide home. In her home, she committed suicide: the events of Bowie Base One shaped the same timeline, but with Adelaide dying on Earth instead of Mars. Distraught at the results of his actions, he berated the impossible task of changing history and began to ponder his own end when a vision of Ood Sigma appeared before him. Crying, he fled into the TARDIS, the Cloister Bell ringing. Seething with self-hatred, he cried a defiant "No!", activated the TARDIS - and began running from his fate. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

The Doctor spent an unknown amount of time avoiding answering the Ood's summons, during which the Doctor saw the phosphorous carousel of the Great Magellan Gestadt, saved a planet from the Red Carnivorous Maw and named a galaxy, "Alison". (TV: The End of Time)

Saving Gallifrey

In 1562, the Doctor, while having a picnic with Queen Elizabeth I and believing her to be a Zygon, proposed to her which she eagerly accepted. The Doctor accused the Queen of being a Zygon because she would never get engaged to him. He realised his horse was the Zygon and he just got engaged to the real Elizabeth. After the Zygon took on the form of Elizabeth, a fez came through a wormhole followed by his eleventh incarnation. The Tenth Doctor ordered both Queens away and he and the Eleventh Doctor tried to use their sonic screwdrivers at the same time to reverse the polarity of the wormhole, summoning the War Doctor to the scene, something neither were happy about. One of the Queens, which the Doctors believed to be the Zygon, returned with royal guards and after giving instructions to Clara Oswald, the Doctors allowed themselves to be captured and taken to the Tower of London.

The Doctor meets his next real incarnation. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

At the Tower, the Eleventh Doctor scratched the activation code for a vortex manipulator into a pillar, which Clara used to save them; the door having been left open. The Queen took them to show them that the Zygons put themselves into stasis in paintings to take over the planet at a future date and revealed herself to be the real Queen who was showing them so that they could defeat the Zygons in the future. Before the three Doctors and Clara travelled there, the Queen had the Doctor marry her. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) He promised to return, but never did which apparently caused her to declare him her enemy. (TV: The Shakespeare Code)

The Doctor and his successor broker peace between the Zygons and the humans. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Communicating with the Zygons and Kate Stewart in the future, the Doctors, unable to land the TARDIS in the Black Archive, placed themselves into the Gallifrey Falls No More painting after ensuring it went into the Archive and entered the Archive through it in the early 21st century. There, the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors erased the memories of the humans and Zygons so that neither knew which was which and were forced to negotiate for peace, rather than set off the nuclear device to destroy the Archive. This caused the War Doctor to decide to go through with using the Moment to end the Time War.

Travelling to the War Doctor and the Moment, the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors joined him, finally accepting that the War Doctor's actions were inevitable. Before the three Doctors could activate the weapon, Clara convinced them to try to find another way. The three Doctors summoned all of their incarnations and froze Gallifrey in time and locked it in a pocket universe, saving it and causing the Daleks to destroy themselves.

At the National Gallery, the three Doctors said goodbye with the War Doctor understanding that he wouldn't remember saving Gallifrey rather than destroying it, but also being happy to meet his future selves and knowing from them what he became. After the War Doctor left, the Tenth Doctor asked the Eleventh Doctor what he was hiding from him that was coming as he wouldn't remember it either. The Eleventh Doctor told him he went to Trenzalore where he died in battle. The Doctor was stunned to hear this and left, commenting "We need a new destination, because...I don't want to go."

Jimmy was kidnapped by the Viperox. After tracking him down, the Doctor and Cassie found Jimmy in the presence of a Viperox Queen before escaping into the desert, where they were confronted by four members of the Alliance of Shades who were destroyed by Jimmy's father, Night Eagle.

(COMIC: To Sleep, Perchance to Scream)

Following Princess Cilia's disappearance at the end of the Ulians' war with the Quintani, the Doctor chose to help. However, once the Doctor found Princess Cilia's ship, she wasn't on board. The Ulian robots on board attacked the Doctor, accidentally shrinking him to the size of a doll. The Ulian robots traced Princess Cilia to the approximate area, but only knew that she was in the vicinity of a Christmas tree. They sent shrunken-down versions of their robots, wrapped in Christmas packages to send to every doorstep on that region of Earth. The robots inadvertently shrunk down the Doctor and put him in a package.

Mason Valentin, having opened the package early, discovered the Doctor wasn't a doll, but a living being. As the Doctor awoke, he was dazed and suffered from amnesia. After learning of packages delivered all across Mason's area, the Doctor offered Mason to save the world with him. The Doctor and Mason went into Ana Comparetto's house, and the Doctor prematurely awoke a shrunken Ulian robot with the sonic screwdriver. The robot, thinking it had found the lost princess, transmatted Ana back to Cilia's ship. The Doctor and Mason used the robot's "magic wand" to fire a transmat beam to board the ship.

On board the ship, the Doctor released Ana from her cell. The Doctor, remembering what had happened to the princess, told the robots that Ana wasn't the princess, and though their methods of tracking the princess were scrambled, he could find her easily. The Doctor was brought back to full size and returned Mason and Ana to Earth in the TARDIS. The Doctor discovered Cilia in one house disguised as a fairy on a Christmas tree. Ana told Cilia the war was over, and the Doctor told her to order the robots to send her back to Ulian Alpha.

Rassilon's final solution

The Doctor and Wilf resolve to stop the Master. (TV: The End of Time)

After meeting with the Ood on Ood Sphere, the Doctor was told that a shadow was falling across creation, which was somehow connected to his former companion, Donna Noble and her grandad Wilfred Mott. He also learnt of a plot to resurrect his arch-enemy, the Saxon Master, and failed to stop it. The Doctor discovered the Master living in the wastelands of London. He tried to confront him, only to be reunited with Wilf. That night, the Doctor tracked down the Master once again, only for the Master to be abducted by billionare Joshua Naismith's private army, and when the Doctor attempted to stop them, he was shot down.

After he recovered, the Doctor contacted Wilf, who informed him of Naismith and went with him in the TARDIS to the Naismith Manor. In the Manor's basement, the Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to unveil two Vinvocci, Addams and Rossiter, who informed him of the Immortality Gate's true purpose. The Doctor rushed to stop the Gate's activation, but was unable to, and the Master turned the entire human race into copies of himself.

The Doctor in Naismith Manor, trying to stop the Time Lords' return. (TV: The End of Time)

After being taken prisoner, Wilf and the Doctor were rescued by the Vinvocci, who took them to their ship in Earth's orbit, which the Doctor took offline to stop the Master finding them. Realising the Master was planning to rescue the Time Lords from the Time War using the White-Point Star, the Doctor took the gun he initially refused from Wilf and piloted the Vinvocci ship back towards the Naismith Manor, where he crashed through the manor's glass roof. However, he was unable to stop the Master from using the Star and the signal from his own insanity to create a link to Gallifrey, which allowed Lord Rassilon and the High Council to escape Gallifrey.

Rassilon undid the Master's conversion of the human race, as Gallifrey appeared in the Earth's sky and began tearing open the time vortex. Torn between killing the Master or Rassilon in cold blood, the Doctor, upon seeing a familiar face, targeted the White-Point Star, severing the link, which saw him, for the second time, condemn the Time Lords to the "hell" of the last day of the Time War. Rassilon tried to kill the Doctor, but he was saved by the most unlikely person - the Master, who attacked Rassilon with his energy blasts, which resulted in the Master being sent "back into hell", along with the Time Lords. (TV: The End of Time)

Saving Wilf

The Doctor writhes in pain from radiation exposure. (TV: The End of Time)

With the Time Lords and the Master gone, the Doctor was relieved that he had survived his supposed death at Rassilon's hands, but his victory was short-lived when he heard the four knocks. They came from Wilf, who was trapped inside a radiation control booth which was about to be flooded with radiation and wanted to be let out. The Doctor quickly realized that the only way to save Wilf was to switch places with him, and be subjected to the radiation bust himself. At first angry about the terrible things the universe rewarded him with and nearly considering Wilf's pleas to leave him, the Doctor could not bear to sacrifice one life to prolong his own after going through so much to stop men willing to take the lives of millions to do the same. Determinant, he released Wilf and received the fatal level of radiation. The Doctor's regenerative process had started. Unlike previous occasions, however, the actual regeneration did not immediately occur, and the Doctor was able to not only return Wilf home, but spend an unknown length of time travelling through time and space revisiting his past companions, an act he referred to as his "reward." (TV: The End of Time)

The Doctor's reward

The Doctor visited Martha Jones and Mickey Smith, now freelance alien fighters and married, saving them from a Sontaran. He went to Bannerman Road where he prevented Luke Smith from being run over by a car and waved goodbye to Sarah Jane Smith, as he had promised on their last meeting. He travelled to a bar where Jack Harkness was drowning his sorrows after losing his Torchwood team. He passed a note to Jack reading, "His name is Alonso". Jack turned to see Midshipman Alonso Frame, whom the Doctor had worked with aboard the starship Titanic, and the Doctor departed as the two began flirting. The Doctor went to a bookstore where Verity Newman, the granddaughter of Joan Redfern, was signing copies of her book, A Journal of Impossible Things, (TV: The End of Time) which was based on the journal the Doctor had written during his time as John Smith. (TV: Human Nature) The Doctor had Verity sign his copy, and she realised he was the man who her grandmother fell in love with. The Doctor asked Verity if Joan had been happy in the end which she confirmed, but he refused to answer her question of if he was. He then encountered Donna's father Geoff Noble before the man's death, and borrowed a pound from him. He then went to the future and used that pound to purchase a winning lottery ticket. He witnessed Donna Noble's wedding to Shaun Temple, and asked Sylvia Noble and Wilf to give Donna the triple rollover-winning ticket as a wedding gift, saying a final goodbye to Wilfred, who was left crying at the Doctor's loneliness and impending death. (TV: The End of Time) The Doctor also visited Heather McCrimmon and Wolfgang Ryter, four years after they had left him (COMIC: Lucky Heather) The Doctor watched Jo Grant sail down the Yangtze River in a tea chest and watched over her large family, consisting of 7 children and 13 grandchildren. He visited all of his former companions from all of his ten incarnations, seeing how they got on after they left the TARDIS. (TV: Death of the Doctor)

After finishing his long "reward", he travelled to the Powell Estate, on 1 January, 2005, where he watched Rose Tyler and her mother, Jackie Tyler, months before Rose first met him. Although he kept to the shadows, a sudden spasm of pain caught Rose's attention and the two exchanged New Year's greetings, with the Doctor telling Rose that she would have a "really great year" with tears in his eyes as he spoke. (TV: The End of Time)

Final death

The Doctor's twelfth regeneration. (TV: The End of Time)

After Rose left, the pain of regeneration overwhelmed him and he collapsed in the middle of the Powell estate, which was, somewhat poetically, the first place his current incarnation visited. Ood Sigma then appeared and told him that while his song was ending, his ancient story never would, and that the universe would sing him to his sleep. Reaching the TARDIS, he piloted it into orbit around Earth, and stated, "I don't want to go." Taking a deep breath, the Doctor closed his eyes and regenerated into his next incarnation. The energy released during his twelfth regeneration was enough to cause massive damage to the TARDIS. (TV: The End of Time)

Undated events

  • During their travels, the Tenth Doctor and Donna watched the courtship of the Zygolt, battled intelligent dogs in a flying house, watched the Beatles perform in 1963, prevented time from being meddled with in the 17th century and joined forces with a survey team to escape a living swamp. (COMIC: The Time of My Life)
  • The Tenth Doctor contacted Frobisher and set up a trap for the Cloaked figure. (COMIC: Prisoners of Time)

Alternate timelines

  • In a parallel timeline in which Donna Noble never met him, and wasn't there to convince him to flee after defeating the Empress of the Racnoss, the Doctor drowned when the Thames was drained into the abandoned Torchwood base. For some reason, the Doctor didn't regenerate; Private Harris speculated it had happened too fast for the process to start. His body was retrieved by UNIT soldiers and his TARDIS was salvaged from under the Thames, later being sent to a UNIT base in Leeds. (TV: Turn Left)

Psychological profile

Personality

The Doctor enjoys an Easter egg. (TV: Planet of the Dead)

The Tenth Doctor was very cheerful, charismatic, hyperactive and enthusiastic, often at inappropriate times. (TV: Tooth and Claw) He occasionally got into trouble because of an apparent sense of superiority over those less "clever" than he was. (TV: Midnight) He regularly used his name as a threat, which only rarely worked, despite his apparent expectations. (TV: New Earth) According to his successor, he had vanity issues. (TV: The Time of the Doctor)

The Doctor's human side made him a more loving and fun character to be around, being very much a good friend to all his companions and welcomed anyone with open arms.[source needed] He became almost like a family man, especially with the Tyler family. (TV: The Christmas Invasion) He tended to keep a massive smile on his face and simply enjoyed his journeys through time and space.[source needed] While previous incarnations intentionally flouted social conventions, the tenth incarnation was genuinely shocked when he realised that he was being rude or uncouth. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, Tooth and Claw)

The Doctor retained and even exceeded his predecessor's capacity for righteous anger, particularly when his friends were threatened or at risk. (TV: The Idiot's Lantern) When driven by anger or justice, he would act without hesitation to strike down those who opposed him. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

The Doctor realizes his talking to himself. (TV: Partners in Crime)

While he seemed to have resolved much of the survivor's guilt felt previously, the Tenth Doctor had begun to feel his age. Beneath his youthful veneer and outward playfulness was a very old man who had seen many terrible things and felt a deep loneliness. (TV: School Reunion, The Lazarus Experiment) He felt profound regret for the deaths he'd seen, (TV: Journey's End) with the Moment referring to him as "the man who regrets". (TV: The Day of the Doctor) His keen sense of loss led him to empathise with those who had also suffered. (TV: The Idiot's Lantern)

His patience broken after their senseless carnage, the Tenth Doctor shows the Family of Blood unrelenting fury. (TV: The Family of Blood)

This incarnation had a very forgiving nature, consistently extending an offer to help even his most dangerous enemies before putting a stop to their evil deeds. (TV: Evolution of the Daleks) He was even willing to forgive the likes of Davros and the Saxon Master. (TV: Last of the Time Lords, Journey's End, The End of Time) However, when his patience reached its limit or his enemies were duplicitous, they received no mercy or second chances. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, The Family of Blood)

The Doctor enjoys being called clever. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp )

The Tenth Doctor's main personality flaws were his sense of arrogance and pride, to the point that he deposed Prime Minister Harriet Jones, thus negating the "Golden Age" she was destined to achieve. (TV: The Christmas Invasion) He was also something of a hypocrite, claiming he would not allow Strackman Lux's pride to cost lives, while refusing to sign Lux's contract, (TV: Silence in the Library) and being offended when Malcolm Taylor hung up on him, despite him doing the same to Malcolm moments before. (TV: Planet of the Dead) He also explained to Rose and Harriet that he was the same man as his predecessor, but informed Wilf that his successor would not be the same man as him. He also tried to convince the Saxon Master to regenerate from a gunshot would, despite his own testament of regeneration equaling death. (TV: Children in Need Special, The Christmas Invasion, Last of the Time Lords, The End of Time)

The Tenth Doctor had a very hard time accepting defeat or failure. (TV: Voyage of the Damned) Having seen so much destruction and death, he felt driven to prevent it wherever possible. (TV: New Earth, Forest of the Dead) Donna Noble noted the reason the Doctor required a companion was to keep him from succumbing to his darker side, (TV: The Runaway Bride) and was proven right when, while travel alone to avoid further heartbreak after losing Donna to a meta-crisis, the Doctor gave in to his pain and anger and broke the Laws of Time to save Adelaide Brooke, describing himself as the "Time Lord Victorious", and believing he had the right to alter history, until Brooke's suicide shocked him back to his senses. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

With his past and future incarnations as witnesses, the Doctor weds Queen Elizabeth I. (TV:The Day of the Doctor)

The tenth incarnation engaged in romantic situations far more frequently than his predecessors, (TV: The Day of the Doctor) falling in love with Rose Tyler. However, he unable able to explicitly described these feelings, struggling with saying such things aloud. (TV: The Satan Pit, Doomsday) In the end, it was the Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor that revealed the Doctor's feelings for her. (TV: Journey's End) Others who tried to engage him romantically included Madame de Pompadour, (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace) Martha Jones, (TV: Human Nature, Last of the Time Lords) Joan Redfern, (TV: Human Nature, The Family of Blood) Jack Harkness, (TV: The Sound of Drums) Astrid Peth, (TV: Voyage of the Damned) Clare Pope, (TV: Partners in Crime) River Song, (TV: Silence in the Library, Forest of the Dead) Christina de Souza, (TV: Planet of the Dead) and Elizabeth I. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

He refused to take up a weapon against an enemy, believing it unbrave to do so. (PROSE: Made of Steel) While previous incarnations had, the tenth incarnation would not, repeatedly refusing even when offered one by UNIT while attacking the Sontarans. (TV: The Poison Sky) Davros noted his refusal to take up a gun, but pointed out that he "turned those around him into weapons." (TV: Journey's End) After initially refusing several times to take up Wilfred Mott's pistol to save himself and humanity from the Saxon Master, the Doctor changed his mind when he heard that the Time Lords were returning. (TV: The End of Time) However, during a battle with the Cybermen, the Doctor helped Major Burton handle a rocket launcher and destroyed a Cyberman with the weapon, despite hesitating due to it previously being human. (PROSE: Made of Steel) He was also tempted to execute General Cobb for the murder of Jenny, but ultimately decided against it. (TV: The Doctor's Daughter)

The Doctor always attempted to solve a situation without violence, (TV: The Christmas Invasion, New Earth, Evolution of the Daleks, The End of Time) which strained his working relationship with UNIT, with him being against their military methods. (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem, The Poison Sky, Planet of the Dead) When Clara Oswald insisted the War, Tenth and Eleventh Doctors find a different way to end the Time War, this incarnation embraced the chance to do so when a plan was formed and worked with all of his other twelve incarnations to save his planet and people. He was upset when he realised he wouldn't be able to remember what he did, but was still happy with the outcome. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Much like his fourth incarnation, the Tenth Doctor had a great respect for humanity, as well as a great desire to protect it, often noting their importance, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) describing human beings as both brilliant and stupid in the same sentence while arguing the necessity of emotions with John Lumic. (TV: The Age of Steel) He even hugged Zachary Cross Flane, the captain of the Walker Expedition, due to the human crew daring to explore a planet orbiting a black hole merely "because it was there". (TV: The Impossible Planet) When Wilf said that humanity must look like insects to a Time Lord, the Doctor responded that he thought they looked like giants. He particularly had a great respect for Wilf, thinking of him as a kindred spirit, as he was also aged and experienced, yet energetic and unwilling to commit violence against others. The Doctor also stated that he felt it an honour to know Wilf, and claimed he would have been proud if he was his father. (TV: The End of Time)

After being forced to wipe Donna Noble's memories of her travels with him, the Doctor was driven into a deep state of depression, (TV: Journey's End) and exiled himself away from the idea of picking up any more companions, (TV: The Next Doctor) even refusing Lady Christina de Souza's request to travel with him, (TV: Planet of the Dead) though he made exceptions with Gabby Gonzalez, (COMIC: Revolutions of Terror), Gisella, (PROSE: The Depths of Despair) Majenta Pryce, (COMIC: Thinktwice) Emily Winter, Matthew Finnegan, (COMIC: Fugitive) Heather McCrimmon, (COMIC: The Chromosome Connection) and Wolfgang Ryter. (COMIC: Flight of the Giurgeax)

After he was given a prophecy of his demise by a human psychic, the Doctor spiraled further into an emotional breakdown that caused him to snap and try to alter a Fixed point in Time by saving Adelaide Brooke, Yuri Kerenski and Mia Bennett from the destruction of Bowie Base One. Upon his success, he declared himself as the "Time Lord Victorious" and believed that, as the last Time Lord, he had the right to control the Laws of Time. Following Brooke's suicide, the Doctor realised he had gone too far and entered another state of depression upon knowing his regeneration was fast approaching. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

Having experienced a similar processes as John Smith, (TV: The Family of Blood) the Doctor became fearful of his inevitable regeneration, going so far as to prevent the process by channeling the excess energy of his regeneration into his severed hand after being shot by a Dalek. (TV: Journey's End)

When Carmen prophesied his "song ending", the Doctor reacted with stunned silence, (TV: Planet of the Dead) and later became emotionally distressed when Ood Sigma heralded his demise. (TV: The Waters of Mars) When he realised he would have to sacrifice his life to save Wilfred Mott from the radiation of the Immortality Gate after thwarting Rassilon's Ultimate Sanction, the Doctor at first had a tantrum about how "not fair" his "reward" was and was tempted to let Wilf die, but ultimately decided to fulfill Carmen's prophecy and save Wilf. (TV: The End of Time)

The Doctor begins to regenerate. (TV: The End of Time)

While he put on a brave face for Rose, Jack and Donna during his aborted regeneration, (TV: The Stolen Earth) when his time finally came, the Doctor instead stated his reluctance to "go", and regenerated with tears in his eyes, afraid and alone. (TV: The End of Time)

Habits and quirks

The Tenth Doctor was an aficionado of twentieth century culture and made frequent references to movies, shows, books and songs from that era, (TV: The Christmas Invasion, The Idiot's Lantern, Army of Ghosts, The Shakespeare Code) though did not understand certain remarks, such as being called a "science geek". (TV: The Lazarus Experiment) He was fond of rock-and-roll, trying to take Rose to see concerts by both Ian Dury and Elvis Presley. (TV: Tooth and Claw, The Idiot's Lantern)

The Doctor often remarked that exotic technology or life was "beautiful" or "brilliant" and was genuinely enthralled by such discoveries, sometimes to the extent that he placed himself, his companions and bystanders in danger. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, Tooth and Claw, Midnight) Like his seventh incarnation, he would insist he was "always all right", even when all evidence pointed to the contrary. (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace, Forest of the Dead)

When this incarnation was faced with an occurrence that dumbfounded him, he would repeatedly say, "What?", looking increasingly astonished with each repetition. (TV: Doomsday, The Shakespeare Code, Last of the Time Lords, Time Crash) While attempting to explain something he would often interrupt himself with a "Well..." and further elaborate what it was he was talking about. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, Army of Ghosts , The Lazarus Experiment, Blink, Utopia) Another favoured exclamation of his was, "Oh, yes!", which he would say in moments of gleeful realization, (TV: Tooth and Claw, The Satan Pit, The Sound of Drums, Voyage of the Damned, Planet of the Ood) when angered or disturbed greatly, (TV: Army of Ghosts, Evolution of the Daleks, The End of Time) or simply as a response to something. (TV: The Age of Steel, The Shakespeare Code, Partners in Crime, The Doctor's Daughter)

The Doctor was fond of the French word, "Allons-y!", (TV: Army of Ghosts, Evolution of the Daleks, 42, Voyage of the Damned, Midnight, The Next Doctor, Planet of the Dead, The Day of the Doctor) describing it to Addams as a word of consolation to the soul in times of need. (TV: The End of Time) An apologetic incarnation, the Doctor also made use of the phrase, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry", (TV: New Earth, The Impossible Planet, Last of the Time Lords, The Poison Sky, The Next Doctor) especially when he could not save someone who was about to die. (TV: The Age of Steel, Army of Ghosts, Silence in the Library) Another favoured phrase of his was "Molto bene". (TV: The Runaway Bride, The Family of Blood, Planet of the Ood, Midnight)

Until they left his life, the Doctor continued his previous incarnation's habit of mildly mocking both Mickey Smith and Jackie Tyler, though generally in a more playful fashion. (TV: The Christmas Invasion, Rise of the Cybermen, Army of Ghosts) He also enjoyed teasing his companions, usually in a less playful manner than his previous selves, (TV: The Runaway Bride, The Lazarus Experiment) and was not above mocking them behind their back. (TV: Smith and Jones) The Doctor also prodded at Jack after they reunited, resuming his habit of telling Jack to "stop it" whenever he said hello to someone, which was his tell-tale way of flirting with them. Jack later told the Doctor he had become "cheeky" with his new incarnation. (TV: Utopia)

The Doctor and Martha enjoy a milkshake. (COMIC: Agent Provocateur)

The tenth incarnation was a bit of a foodie, having a fondness for many types of food and drink,[source needed] with his companions being dumbfounded and bemused by his eating habits. (PROSE: The Nightmare of Black Island; TV: The Lazarus Experiment) Like his predecessor, he had a fondness for bananas, (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace) and expressed a fondness for tea. (TV: The Christmas Invasion) He also liked edible ball bearings, stating that they were a "masterpiece". (TV: Fear Her) The Doctor often talked about favourite foods and recipes, and wasn't afraid to try something new, such as seaweed truffles. (PROSE: Martha in the Mirror)

The Doctor had a stated fondness for "little shops", the gift stores usually found in hospitals and other public places, though he retained his eighth incarnation's dislike for hospitals. (TV: New Earth, Smith and Jones, Silence in the Library)

The Doctor relied heavily upon his sonic screwdriver, pushing it to limits not seen in previous incarnations, (TV: The Runaway Bride, Smith and Jones, Partners in Crime) and even chiding the Fifth Doctor for going "hands free". (TV: Time Crash)

He also continued to heavily use the psychic paper, (TV: Tooth and Claw, The Idiot's Lantern, The Infinite Quest, The Unicorn and the Wasp, Planet of the Dead) and appeared to have the ability to carry a large and diverse number of objects in his pockets, telling Donna Noble that they were bigger on the inside. (TV: The Runaway Bride) The Doctor also revived the occasional use of a stethoscope in mostly non-medical situations, such as the diagnosis of electronic or mechanical faults or to eavesdrop on others. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen, The Idiot's Lantern, Partners in Crime, The Stolen Earth) He used a hammer many times during this incarnation, often to help pilot the TARDIS. (TV: The Runaway Bride)

The Tenth Doctor often did math calculations in his head very quickly. This included making an estimate, waiting for those around him to respond, then giving a very exact answer. (TV: Voyage of the Damned)

Skills and abilities

Although he disliked violence, the Doctor was skilled with a sword, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) and also an extremely good shot with a gun, being able to shoot a White-Point Star from a distance. (TV: The End of Time)

The Doctor was also incredibly resilient and showed an immense resistance to physical pain, being unfazed when the Sycorax leader sliced off his hand, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) and enduring the burning pain of having a living star possessing him, in addition to surviving attempts to freeze the star out of him. (TV: 42) He also took a powerful blast of electricity from the Saxon Master, was able to get to his feet with only some difficulty after jumping out of a ship and falling through a skylight, and was able to absorb 500 rads of nuclear energy and survive as well, although it was the final straw for his body and triggered his regeneration, he also refused to allow the pain of the regeneration to overwhelm him until he was back in the TARDIS after visiting his old companions. (TV: The End of Time)

Given his height and build, it was not surprising that the Doctor was extremely nimble and quick on his feet, and loved running. (TV: Tooth and Claw, The Doctor's Daughter)

Like all his other incarnations, the Tenth Doctor was exceptionally intelligent, being able to figure out solutions to problems even when they were created by a person who had an equal amount of intelligence. (TV: School Reunion, The Sound of Drums) He also possessed a heightened sense of smell, which could be used to track other Time Lords (TV: The End of Time) or tell which time period he was in just by smelling the air. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp) He also demonstrated the ability to determine the properties of an object by taste. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

This incarnation was skilled at mechanics and built K9 Mark IV to replace Mark III after he was destroyed. (TV: School Reunion) He was also able to lock the coordinates of the TARDIS with his sonic screwdriver so that it could only travel to two places in time and space. (TV: Utopia, The Sound of Drums ) The Doctor was also a skilled pilot, on a few occasions able to take control and navigate a spacecraft through and out of danger. (TV: Voyage of the Damned, The End of Time)

This incarnation also followed the trend of his immediate predecessor in displaying increasing skill for using the TARDIS, even using it in the form of a standard spaceship rather than simply dematerialising it on several occasions. (TV: The Runaway Bride, Partners in Crime) When told by River Song that he would one day be able to command the TARDIS door to open with a snap of his fingers, he found that he did possess such abilities, after initially believing it to be nonsense. (TV: Forest of the Dead)

The Doctor reads Reinette's mind. (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace)

The Tenth Doctor was also a skilled telepath, (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace) being able to wipe Donna Noble's memories, (TV: Journey's End) and to hide his true name from those who could read minds. (TV: The Shakespeare Code)

The Doctor was able to channel radiation through a body part into his own clothing, although the radiated body part was described by him as being "itchy." (TV: Smith and Jones) However, he could only do this with a small amount of radiation and the radiation he absorbed to save Wilfred Mott was too much for him and he was forced to regenerate. (TV: The End of Time)

The Doctor also showed an impressive amount of control over his regenerative abilities, more so than his previous incarnations. He was able to heal himself after being shot by a Dalek and then stop himself from changing his form by channelling the regeneration energy into his severed hand. (TV: Journey's End) He was also able to resist regenerating long enough to visit his old friends, though this resulted in his regeneration becoming so violent that the TARDIS was set ablaze in the process. (TV: The End of Time)

Appearance

File:10pic.jpg
The Tenth Doctor's signature suit. (TV: The End of Time)

The Tenth Doctor was a handsome man with a tall, slim frame, finely boned hands and face, thick brown hair, pale skin scattered with freckles, and large, dark brown eyes. (TV: The Parting of the Ways, Children in Need Special) He went clean-shaven. (TV: Time Crash)

The Doctor was considered attractive by people he encountered on his travels, and seemingly thought this of himself as well - his next incarnation would characterise him as having vanity issues. (TV: The Time of the Doctor)

While he was possessed by Lady Cassandra at New New York Hospital, Cassandra stated that he was "slim and a little bit foxy." (TV: New Earth) Donna Noble described him as "too skinny for words. You give him a hug, you get a paper cut", (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem) while the Eleventh Doctor described his skinniness as a "special effect". (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Grooming and hair

The Doctor was happy to have sideburns and to have more hair than his previous incarnation. (TV: Children in Need Special) Though he initially seemed disappointed at not being ginger, he came to take great pride in his dark brown hair, wearing it in various ways throughout his adventures. He would wear it un-styled, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) in a quiff, (TV: The Idiot's Lantern) or flattened forwards. (TV: The Runaway Bride) At some point, he began to experiment with back-combing his hair. (TV: Fear Her)

Wilfred Mott described the Doctor's hair to the Silver Cloak as being a "modern style", and "all sticky-uppy". (TV: The End of Time)

Clothing

For the early moments of his life, the Doctor continued to wear the clothes his previous incarnation had on at the time of his regeneration. After arriving in London and collapsing, he was placed in a set of pyjamas and a dressing gown by Jackie Tyler, which he kept until he chose a new outfit from the TARDIS wardrobe. (TV: Children in Need Special, The Christmas Invasion)

The Doctor had two main suits, a dark brown suit with blue pinstripes, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) and a blue suit with red pinstripes. (TV: Smith and Jones) For certain formal occasions, he would also don a bow tie and tuxedo. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen, The Lazarus Experiment, Voyage of the Damned)

Under his suits he usually wore a shirt and tie, or wore an open-necked shirt with a t-shirt underneath. He had a red-hued t-shirt, a brown t-shirt or a purple t-shirt.[source needed]

Both brown and blue suits were often accompanied by a light brown Duster-type overcoat, (TV: The Christmas Invasion) which the Doctor claimed had been given to him by Janis Joplin. (TV: Gridlock) He usually took it off while doing fiddly tasks or piloting his TARDIS. (TV: New Earth)

His footwear choices were trainers, Converse All Stars to be specific. (TV: The Family of Blood) He varied the colours from cream white to go with his brown suit, red for wearing with blue suit and on a few occasions, black to go with his tuxedo/brown suit.[source needed] Despite his protests, both his war and eleventh incarnations stated the trainers he wore were sand-shoes. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Another part of the Doctor's attire were a pair of dark tortoise-shell rectangular frame glasses, which he called "brainy specs". Although he wore them on numerous occasions, he later pointed out to his fifth incarnation that he didn't need them and simply used them because they made him look clever. (TV: Time Crash) At one time, the Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to darken the lenses to effectively turn them into sunglasses. (TV: Planet of the Dead)

Other information

Lifespan

Main article: The Doctor's age

The Ninth Doctor stated that he was 900 years old by the time of his travels with Rose. (TV: Aliens of London)

The Tenth Doctor himself stated his age was 903 immediately after Martha Jones stopped traveling with him, (TV: Voyage of the Damned) and later stated he was 904 years old to a rabbit in 1562 England. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Given his stated age of 906 just prior to his regeneration, (TV: The End of Time), and his next incarnation giving his age as 907 a few days afterwards, (TV: Flesh and Stone) this incarnation lived for 7-to-8 years. However, some accounts suggested his stated tally may not have been correct. (TV: The Infinite Quest, PROSE: The Haldenmor Fugue)

Behind the scenes

Costuming

David Tennant described his costume "geek chic". According to an interview on Parkinson, Tennant and Russell T Davies got the idea for the tenth incarnation's costume from an outfit Jamie Oliver had worn on Parkinson just after Tennant had taken the role of the Doctor. According to Doctor Who Confidential, [which?] one of the first things Tennant said after deciding to take the part was "I want a coat down to here," pointing to his ankle.

According to costume designer Louise Page, there were only four sets of the brown suit in existence, as they were pieced together from many copies of a pin-striped pair of trousers that Tennant picked out during the initial costuming process. His overcoat was made from sofa covering and there was one version that had five inches from the bottom cut off then sewn back on, as Davies and Phil Collinson had different ideas about how long it should be.

After leaving the series, David Tennant kept his costume for possible future use, stating that he would gladly return for a multi-Doctor special should he ever be asked to participate in one. (DCOM: The End of Time) Eventually, he did return in The Day of the Doctor.

The Brilliant Book

According to the non-narrative source REF: The Brilliant Book 2011, the Doctor was searching for Sontaran grenades in 1895. During his search, he came across his old friend Winston Churchill.

Other matters

  • According to a scene deleted from Human Nature (available as an Easter egg on the DVD release), the Doctor hated pears and (like his sixth incarnation) carrots.
  • In the Japanese dubbing of the show, the Tenth Doctor is played by Toshihiko Seki.
