Stick John Hurt's [[The Doctor (The Name of the Doctor)|Unknown Doctor]] in the bottom row. We don't know what regeneration he is, or even if he's a full doctor (or an in-between incarnation), but it was confirmed onscreen he was A doctor.[[Special:Contributions/86.174.188.161|86.174.188.161]]<sup>[[User talk:86.174.188.161#top|talk to me]]</sup> 20:53, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

:Actually, it's only confirmed by ''the credits'' that he's the Doctor.  The actual narrative makes ''very'' clear that he's not the Doctor.  Removing from template.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 16:34: Sun 19 May 2013</span>

::Trust Moffat to make this such an enigma -he's the Doctor, but he's not A DOCTOR. 11 did clearly state they were definitely the same person ("He's me, there's only me here, that's the point...") , but not worthy of the title 'Doctor' ("I said he was me, I never said he was the Doctor... he's the one who broke the promise"), but it depends what we decide the box is counting - is it the Time Lord himself, or just the versions who 'Kept the promise' of the Doctor?
If we're going to be pedantic, then the Valeyard, Dream Lord and the Watcher aren't really the Doctor either - the Watcher was a projection, the Dream Lord a psychic state of consciousness and The Valeyard an in-betweener. Hurt's "Doctor" was at least confirmed by himself to be the same Time Lord, just unworthy of being considered the Doctor.
