Talk:Ninth Doctor (Scream of the Shalka)

Discussion page
Revision as of 02:46, 22 April 2009 by CzechOut (talk | contribs)

In episode one, the Doctor says (of a cat,) "He must've used up his nine lives, rather like me." This (to me) seems to suggest that he could be the 13th doctor... which would certainly seem to fit his bleak outlook, being tired of his life.

His entire status-quo seems VERY removed from the Eighth's. -Derik 20:27, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

That's a very interesting interpretation. However, the more common one, and the one intended by the producers, is the more literal one. He's at the end of — or at least not the beginning of — his ninth life. There are (or were) a number of hard sources for this at wikipedia:Shalka Doctor. The other reason that you can't quite go with your interpretation is that the script also has a reference to a painting being made of "all nine of him", which rather definitely sets the number of this Doctor in narrative stone.
