Howling:When the Doctor died in Turn Left...: Difference between revisions

I agree. The UNIT officer thought he drowned too fast to regenerate, but that isn't true. In The Runaway Bride, Donna tells him to stop - without her, he doesn't, and he lets himself die. Why? Because he's just gone through a horrific ordeal with losing Rose to the sealed off parallel world, and had no desire to live. This was displayed repeatedly in series 3. For example: in the Daleks in Manhattan episode, he basically screams at a Dalek to kill him because "it's his turn." This episode added an entirely new depth to that Christmas special and the Doctor's character and state of mind at that point in the show. {{Unsigned-anon|92.15.141.139}}

By the way, it's a good thing that was just an alternative version of the Doctor. Though I've always wondered -- how did he even know about the Racnoss without Donna appearing in his TARDIS? (Since in that timeline, he never met her) Was there another bride used in the Racnoss' plot? Did she (unlike Donna) also drown with the Doctor? Except her body was never found, because it may have been swept away by the current, down into the hole? – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 92.15.141.139 (talk).
