So, [[User:DENCH-and-PALMER|DENCH-and-PALMER]], would you like to do the honours (it was your idea after all), or should I make the list of appearances page?

== "Increase a human's lifespan" == | |||
Removing this clause, originally cited to ''[[Pyramids of Mars (TV story)|Pyramids of Mars]]'', as it seems to be somewhat jumbled. | |||
: Other Osiran technology included... the ability to increase a [[human]]'s lifespan by thousands of years, | |||
And if I'm not mistaken is apparently referring to this Sutekh quote, from part four. | |||
: "I can, if I choose, keep you alive for centuries, racked by the most excruciating pain. Since your interference has condemned me forever to remain a prisoner in the Eye of Horus, it would be a fitting end. You would make an amusing diversion." | |||
Problem is, aside from centuries and thousands of years not ''automatically'' meaning the same thing, he says this to a Time Lord (not a human), who gives his age as 750 in the same serial, and concurs with Sarah Jane that this is middle aged for him. And assuming the Twelfth Doctor's figure of "over 2000" in series 8-10 is accurate, the Fourth Doctor ''normally'' lives for at least 1300 years beyond this point in his life. Hell, in theory Sutekh's punishment could be something similar to the confession dial torture chamber in ''[[Heaven Sent (TV story)|Heaven Sent]]'', which is an even longer time span. -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 12:33, August 5, 2017 (UTC) | |||
