:: The suggestion is that Fifteen has mentally been pulled backwards from the point of Fourteen's future regeneration ("rehab out of order"); presumably the TARDIS has too. Even if it hasn't, it's a complicated space-time event with manifestations in realspace; two police boxes does not necessarily mean two TARDISes, rather than "two of the same TARDIS", as it were… I'm against a split until/unless we get further data.

:::So all of this is filtering in very haphazardly, and I don't have access to the UK stuff, but ''allegedly'' this is not the intent, and instead it's that every time the Doctor would have died instead, due to the bigeneration, he gets up alive. Obviously, you know, authorial intent vs textual evidence, but I think the textual evidence is itself basically non existent. Perhaps the UK people can comment on this? It's allegedly on the iPlayer commentary.

::::My understanding of that comment is that Doctors 1-13 are a different deal from 14. The Toymaker weirdness causes Fifteen to be pulled backwards in time yadayada, ''and'' also resurrects all the past Doctors as a side-effect. Very weird, but then, this whole thing is very weird. | |||
::::I strongly disagree with the idea that "the textual evidence is basically non-existent". When they're all discussing the Doctor's derelict psychological state, Fourteen remarks that Fifteen seems much more put-together, and Fifteen replies that it's because Fourteen fixes himself; and then has the "rehab out of order" line. This exchange ''only makes sense'' if Fifteen is continuous with the post-biregen Fourteen who goes on to have his healing happy-ever-after with the Nobles; if they were really splitting off for good, then Fifteen would not get to reap the rewards of Fourteen's future character development!
