Explosive, exuberant, emotionally unpredictable and adventurous, the '''Eleventh Doctor''' was the last [[incarnation]] of '''[[the Doctor]]'s''' [[First Doctor's regeneration cycle|original]] [[regenerative cycle]]. By this point in his life, the Doctor's reputation had grown immense, attracting a new strain of conflicts. Wishing to withdraw from the dangers it created, he became a secretive and guileful individual for the sake of himself and those he held close.
As the alleged final [[incarnation]] of [[the Doctor]]'s original [[regenerative cycle]], the '''Eleventh Doctor''' found that his reputation had grown so immense that he attracted new strains of conflict from the fear the peoples of the universe had for him and his destiny on [[Trenzalore]], and became a secretive and guileful individual for the sake of himself and those he held close, while also acting as an outlandish hipster as he embraced his fairy tale life with his obsession with mystery-solving and love of joining in on the fun that time and space offered.  


This incarnation's most notable enemy was [[the Silence]], who were responsible for destroying [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]], causing the [[time field|cracks in time]], which eventually [[Total event collapse|consumed]] the universe, though he [[Big Bang Two|restored]] it with the [[Pandorica]]. His multi-century war with the Silence critically involved [[companion]]s [[Amy Pond]], [[Rory Williams]] and their daughter, [[River Song]]. Ultimately, the most significant defeat of the Silence required him to [[marriage|marry]] River in a dubious [[wedding]] ceremony, albeit one they both seemed to regard as genuine.
Arriving at [[Amy Pond's house]] in [[1996]] during a crashlanding caused by damage his TARDIS had sustained during his regeneration, the Doctor found a [[Time field|a crack in the fabric of time and space]] in the wall, but had to take off in the TARDIS when the [[TARDIS engine]]s started overheating, not returning until [[2008]], where he was helped by [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] in stopping the [[Atraxi]] from destroying the Earth to find [[Prisoner Zero]], who warned the Doctor that "[[The Silence|silence [would] fall]]" when the [[Pandorica]] opened. After taking his rebuilt TARDIS for a test run, the Doctor returned to fulfill his promise to take Amy traveling with him in [[2010]], taking her to ''[[Starship UK]]'' in [[3295]], where they helped free [[Star whale (The Beast Below)|the star whale]], and then to [[1941]] [[London]], where the Doctor failed to stop the rise of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]].  


After the touch of a [[Weeping Angel]] robbed him of Amy and Rory, a heartbroken Doctor [[retire]]d to Victorian London and associated himself with the "[[Paternoster Gang]]". During this period, he rediscovered a woman named [[Clara Oswald]], whom he thought had died previously in the distant future; she once again died here. Fascinated by this "impossible girl", he set off to solve the mystery of her multiple lives, and take her on as his latest travelling companion. He discovered her to be part of his timeline, having entered it in order to save him from the [[Great Intelligence]]. In doing so, he revealed to her his [[War Doctor|secret incarnation]], who had fought in the [[Last Great Time War]].
When a summons from [[River Song]] lead them to the crash of the ''[[Byzantium (ship)|Byzantium]]'', the Doctor found another crack in time after Amy became infected by a [[Weeping Angel]], and had to feed the Angels to the crack to close it and heal Amy, after which she told him of her engagement to Rory and tried to seduce him, leading the Doctor to bring Rory aboard the TARDIS and take them to [[1580]] [[Venice]] as a wedding gift to stop them drifting apart as he stopped the [[Saturnyn]]s drowning Venice. Rory was asked to remain with them in the TARDIS, and Amy quickly realised her true love for him during a battle with the [[Dream Lord]], but Rory was tragically killed during an attempt to find peace with the [[Silurian]]s, and then erased from time by the cracks. Now the only one who could remember Rory, the Doctor treated Amy to meetings with the likes of [[Vincent van Gogh]] and trips to destinations such as [[1963]] [[London]], as they faced challenges from the [[Dalek]]s, [[Cybermen]] and [[Vashta Nerada]], with the Doctor also befriending [[Craig Owens]] when forced to lodge with him to investigate a [[timeship]].


With his [[Tenth Doctor|previous incarnation]], the Doctor revisited the Time War, and discovered that he and his past incarnations had actually saved the Time Lords from destruction, but lost knowledge of the event with only the Eleventh Doctor retaining his memories of what had actually happened. This allowed him to cleanse his hands of a genocide he never enacted and happily accept the incarnation he once renounced, becoming the first incarnation to know the Time War's true conclusion.
Ultimately, another summons from River brought the Doctor before the Pandorica at [[102]] [[Stonehenge]], and he was imprisoned by [[The Alliance (The Pandorica Opens)|an alliance of his enemies]] to stop his TARDIS from exploding and destroying the universe, though it still blew up and destroyed every planet save the Earth when River was piloting it. After he was freed by Rory, who had been rebuilt as an [[Auton]] by the Alliance, the Doctor used [[River's vortex manipulator]] to save her from the TARDIS and then [[Big Bang Two|rebooted the universe]] by launching the Pandorica into the explosion. As his timeline unravelled, the Doctor was remembered back into reality by Amy at her wedding reception, and then took Amy and Rory, revived to his old self by the reality reboot, for more adventure in the TARDIS as "the Ponds".


After receiving [[The Question|a message broadcast throughout time and space]] by the Time Lords, the Doctor spent the last nine hundred years of his life [[Siege of Trenzalore|defending]] the planet [[Trenzalore]] from his greatest enemies. Though the Time Lords wished to be released from their pocket universe, the Doctor feared a new Time War would start but also refused to abandon the planet to destruction. Growing old, weak and frail, the Doctor faced his imminent demise as witnessed during a trip into [[Alternate timeline (The Name of the Doctor)|his own personal future]]. At the pleading of Clara, the Time Lords granted the Doctor a new regeneration cycle at the end of his life, enabling the Doctor to undergo an explosive change into [[Twelfth Doctor|his next incarnation]], changing his personal future but leaving the Time Lords trapped outside the universe.
While Amy and Rory enjoyed their honeymoon, the Doctor shared an adventure with [[Sarah Jane Smith]] and [[Jo Jones]] against the [[Claw Shansheeth]], and saved [[Albert Einstein]] from becoming an [[Ood]], but then had to save Amy and Rory when the ''[[Thrasymachus]]'' cruise ship was crashing on [[Sardicktown]] by rewriting the history of town proprietor [[Kazran Sardick]] to turn him into a nicer person. Taking the Ponds with him, the Doctor had to separate the TARDIS from itself when the exterior landed within the interior, and help Amy deal with her conflicting memories caused by the reality reboot.
 
After separating from the Ponds to allow them to enjoy their married life, the Doctor took on [[Alice Obiefune]] as a companion, and their adventures included stopping the [[Talent Scout]] of [[SERVEYOUinc]] with [[John Jones]] and [[ARC]], preventing the [[Volatix Cabal]] from enacting their masterplan through sleeper agent [[the Squire]] with [[Abslom Daak]] and River, and protecting [[the Sapling]] from [[The Scream (Remembrance)|the Scream]].
 
After receiving a mysterious summons, the Doctor was reunited with Amy, Rory and River in a mission to find [[Canton Everett Delaware III]], which lead him into his first direct confrontation with the [[Silent]]s in [[1969]] [[Washington DC]] when he found [[Melody Pond (Prequel to The Impossible Astronaut)|a little girl]] in an astronaut suit calling [[President of the United States|President]] [[Richard Nixon]]. While dealing with Amy's undecided pregnancy, the Doctor used the Silents' post-hypnotic suggestion powers against them by hijacking the ''[[Apollo 11]]'' moon landing and having humanity wipe them out. The Doctor then continued to investigate Amy's potential pregnancy as he and the Ponds saved the crew of the ''[[Fancy]]'' from a [[Skerth]] [[Siren (The Curse of the Black Spot)|Siren]] and investigated a [[bubble universe]] where the TARDIS was briefly placed in [[Idris|a woman]]'s body by [[House (The Doctor's Wife)|House]], until the Doctor realised Amy was a [[Ganger]] and severed the connection, though not before the Ganger told him she had watched a future version of himself die at [[Lake Silencio]]. The Doctor and Rory launched an attack on [[Demons Run]] to save Amy and her baby from Madame [[Kovarian]], but Kovarian managed to escape with the baby, who was a [[Proto-Time Lord]] due to being conceived within the Time Vortex. River, however, revealed that she was the baby to the Doctor, who quickly left.
 
After months without contact, the Doctor was called upon by Amy and Rory for answers, only for his TARDIS to be hijacked to [[1938]] [[Berlin]] by [[Mels Zucker]], the Ponds' childhood best friend, who regenerated into River Song after being shot by [[Adolf Hitler]], revealing herself to be their child, just as she was hunted down by the ''[[Teselecta]]'', with the Doctor learning the Silence was plotting to have River assassinate him at Lake Silencio to prevent the "[[First Question]]" being answered. After saving River from the ''Teselecta'' and leaving her with the [[Sisters of the Infinite Schism]], the Doctor and the Ponds continued with their adventures, such as helping the [[Tenza]] [[George Thompson]] overcome his [[pantophobia]], finding the missing [[Agent 99]] and saving the universe from the [[Atomon]], until a visit to [[Apalapucia]] forced the Doctor to realise his cavalier lifestyle was endangering the Ponds, and he decided to leave them behind at [[Amy Pond and Rory Williams' house (The God Complex)|a house]] in 2011 London after an adventure on [[Prison ship (The God Complex)|a prison ship]] with [[Minotaur (The God Complex)|a Minotaur]].
 
Embarking on a [[farewell tour]] to delay his assassination at Lake Silencio, the Doctor travelled around for roughly two hundred years until a "social call" to Craig, in which the pair thought off some Cybermen, convinced him to face his fate, though not before he traced answers for his assassination to [[Dorium Maldovar]] and the ''Teselecta'', with the Doctor deciding to avert his death by hiding in the ''Teselecta'' while it took on his form at Lake Silencio. However, River managed to prevent herself shooting him, causing [[River Song's World|time to collapse]], though the Doctor was able to repair it by [[marriage|marrying]] River in a dubious [[wedding]] ceremony, albeit one they both regarded as genuine, allowing her to trust him. With the universe convinced he was dead, the Doctor went "back into the shadows" by removing information about himself from areas like the [[Inforarium]], ignoring Dorium's warnings of the "[[Fall of the Eleventh]]" at Trenzalore.
 
While returning a favour to [[Madge Arwell]], the Doctor was convinced to visit Amy and Rory for Christmas and let them know he was still alive after Lake Silencio, and they remained in contact, even sharing an adventure with the crew of the [[USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D)|USS ''Enterprise''-D]]. However, after their escape from the [[Dalek Asylum]], during which the Doctor was erased from the Dalek [[Pathweb]] by [[Oswin Oswald]], the Doctor and the Ponds would go longer without seeing each other, with a gap of ten months occurring between the Dalek Asylum and them facing [[Solomon (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)|Solomon the trader]] on a [[Silurian Ark]], until [[the Year of the Slow Invasion]] forced the Doctor to live with the Ponds as he assisted UNIT's [[Head of Scientific Research]], [[Kate Stewart]], in repelling a [[Shakri]] invasion. Though content to leave the Ponds behind again, the Doctor was convinced to let them travel with him some more, until he lost them to the touch of a Weeping Angel in [[New York City]], with the temporal energies within the city making him unable to retrieve them.
 
After some time traveling with [[Decky Flamboon]], encounters with the [[Cyber Legion]] Cybermen and the [[Dalek Time Controller]] convinced the Doctor to [[retire]] from adventuring and seek solitude in [[1892]] [[London]], though the [[Paternoster Gang]] would continuously try to encourage him to adventure again, though they were unsuccessful until [[Clara Oswin Oswald]] convinced him to investigate the [[Great Intelligence]]'s plot to invade London as a snowstorm, though Clara died foiling the scheme. However, as she died, the Doctor realised there was a connection between her and Oswin from the Dalek Asylum and went looking for answers on the "impossible girl". His search brought him into contact with [[Valarie Lockwood]], who joined him in looking for Clara for a time. Eventually deciding to see if they met by happenstance again, the Doctor was reunited with [[Ian Chesterton]] and [[Barbara Wright]], and advised by [[Clara Oswald|a young girl]] to "find a quiet room and have a good think" to help him locate Clara.
 
When [[Clara Oswald]] telephoned the TARDIS while he was secluded in [[1207]] [[Cumbria]], the Doctor followed the call to [[2013]] London, where Clara helped him defeat the Wi-Fi plot of [[Rosemary Kizlet]] and her "[[Great Intelligence|client]]", and then agreed to travel with him to [[Tiaanamat]] of the [[Sun-singers of Akhet]] for her first trip, with the Doctor secretly investigating her as they faced [[Skaldak]] the [[Ice Warrior]] aboard the ''[[Firebird (submarine)|Firebird]]'' during the [[Cold War]] and solved a ghost mystery at [[Caliburn House]], until he was convinced of Clara's obliviousness to her other lives when he confronted her in a timeline he was able to revert. Now seeing Clara as a friend instead of a puzzle, the Doctor agreed to take her charges, [[Angie Maitland|Angie]] and [[Artie Maitland]], to [[Hedgewick's World of Wonders]] when they uncovered her time travelling, where they helped Emperor [[Ludens Nimrod Kendrick Cord Longstaff XLI]] destroy some [[Weapons-grade Cybermen]]. When the Great Intelligence took the Paternoster Gang hostage at the Doctor's grave on Trenzalore, it was discovered that Clara became embroiled in the Doctor's [[time stream]] when she entered it in order to stop the Great Intelligence corrupting his timeline, though the Doctor was able to retrieve her after they saw a memory of the [[War Doctor]] lingering in the timestream.
 
With the mystery of her existence solved, the Doctor and Clara undertook carefree adventures that saw them visit the [[Royal Albert Hall]] and have to recover the Doctor's lost memories with his [[Twelve Hundred Year Diary]]. When Clara started teaching English at [[Coal Hill School]], the Doctor travelled alone to let her adjust to her new job, though did briefly take on [[Professor]] [[Brian Cox]] as a companion. When he was brought back into the [[Last Great Time War]] by [[the Moment]] with the [[Tenth Doctor]] to help the [[War Doctor]], the Eleventh Doctor was convinced by Clara to avert [[Gallifrey]]'s destruction, and the Doctors worked with their other incarnations to lock Gallifrey in [[Gallifrey's pocket universe|a pocket universe]].
 
With the Time Lords saved, the Doctor was convinced by [[the Curator]] of the [[Under Gallery]] to go looking for Gallifrey, though he was unable to find his home planet until he received [[The Question|a message broadcasting throughout time and space]] shortly after he obtained the head of a Cyberman from [[the Maldovarium]] Market and named it "[[Handles]]". Tracing the message to a planet quarantined by [[Tasha Lem]] of the [[Papal Mainframe]], the Doctor and Clara found the signal coming from a crack in time in a town called [[Christmas (town)|Christmas]], and Handles confirmed the message came from Gallifrey. Realising the Time Lords were trying to return, an act that would start another [[time war]], and that he was on Trenzalore, the Doctor returned Clara home and then spent the next nine hundred years of his life [[Siege of Trenzalore|defending Trenzalore]] from his greatest enemies as they strived to prevent the Time Lords' return. Growing old and frail as he lost friends such as Handles to the conflict, the Doctor prepared to face his imminent demise by the Daleks until the Time Lords granted him a new regeneration cycle at Clara's urging when Tasha brought her back to Trenzalore, enabling the Doctor to undergo an explosive change that destroyed the Daleks and ''[[Nacrana Va Hateen]]'', saving Trenzalore. Wit his body reseting in preparation for the change, the Doctor bade Clara farewell in the TARDIS as he regenerated into [[Twelfth Doctor|his next incarnation]], changing his personal future but leaving the Time Lords trapped outside the universe.

Much like his [[second incarnation]], the Eleventh Doctor showed a childlike recklessness, but always had a grand scheme behind his actions.

Aware that he was more absent minded than his predecessors, ([[GAME]]: ''[[Evacuation Earth (video game)|Evacuation Earth]]'') the Eleventh Doctor got distracted easily, disregarding important matters once he noticed something that he found more interesting. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Flesh and Stone (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}) He thought aloud when he was panicking or stressed, and tended to babble about what he knew about the current situation to come up with a plan, believing that he would have one when he finished talking, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}}, {{cs|Flesh and Stone (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Vampires of Venice (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Lodger (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Pandorica Opens (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Big Bang (TV story)}}, {{cs|Closing Time (TV story)}}) with his usual strategy being to "talk very fast, [and] hope something good happen[ed], [and then] take the credit" if the situation resolved itself. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}})


Able to find positive outlooks in negative situations, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The End of Time (TV story)}}, {{cs|Vincent and the Doctor (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}) he preferred to settle problems through negotiation rather than violence, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Vampires of Venice (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Hungry Earth (TV story)}}, {{cs|Cold War (TV story)}}) but was willing to fight and kill when he deemed it necessary, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Day of the Moon (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)}}, {{cs|Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)}}, {{cs|Dinosaurs on a Spaceship (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}}) as well as physically intimidate someone when he was suppressing his anger.

When she was killed by the [[Ice Governess]], the Doctor tried to "bargain with the universe" by saving the Earth from the [[Great Intelligence]] to save Clara, believing that he was "owed" a victory, but he instead settled with adventuring again to uncover the mystery of Clara's connection to [[Oswin Oswald]].

<!--Examples following this point focus on traits that highlight this particular incarnation of the Doctor being self-defensive or insecure-->
The Eleventh Doctor had a tendency towards self-loathing for his actions, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Amy's Choice (TV story)}}, ''[[The History of the Doctor (TV story)|The History of the Doctor]]'') such as holding himself accountable for the actions of his enemies when they put his friends in danger or when he failed to stop them. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Victory of the Daleks (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)}}, {{cs|Closing Time (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Town Called Mercy (TV story)}}) In an imaginary interrogation session with his previous incarnations, the Doctor imagined them all leaving him in disgust after he made the claim that he always left things better than he found them. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Pull to Open (comic story)|Pull to Open]]'') He also had an intense sadness that was almost an exhausted pain, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Hunters of the Burning Stone (comic story)|Hunters of the Burning Stone]]'') with Amy concluding that he was lonely inside. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}}) He missed [[Gallifrey]], and admitted that he still felt the loneliness of being the [[last of the Time Lords]] when he interrogated [[Alaya]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Hungry Earth (TV story)}}) When he was given a ray of hope that he wasn't the last of the Time Lords, and it turned out to be a trap, the Doctor reacted with quiet rage. He also expressed a desire to be forgiven for what he had done in the Time War. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Wife (TV story)}}) He was glad to'd helped save Gallifrey. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (TV story)}})


While he knew it was important to hold onto tragedy as motivation in the face of adversity, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Beast Below (TV story)}}) the Eleventh Doctor would not dwell on despair, choosing instead to move on with his life, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Vampires of Venice (TV story)}}) but would still take a period to mourn when he lost someone. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Snowmen (TV story)}}) Because of his willingness to move on from tragedy, [[the Moment]] banded him as "the man who forgets". ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (TV story)}})

([[TV]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (TV story)}})
The Eleventh Doctor could be self-interested, eavesdropping on conversations about himself, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of Angels (TV story)}}) wanting to be impressive and admired, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Flesh and Stone (TV story)}}, {{cs|Amy's Choice (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Impossible Astronaut (TV story)}}, {{cs|The God Complex (TV story)}}) being concerned about not being thought of as attractive, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)}}) and frequently boasted about how impressive he thought he was. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of Angels (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Impossible Astronaut (TV story)}}, {{cs|Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Snowmen (TV story)}}) However, his arrogance was a façade to hide his insecurities, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Wife (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)}}, {{cs|Closing Time (TV story)}}) and the guilt he felt over ruining his past companions' lives.

<!--Examples following this point focus on this particular incarnation of the Doctor's likes, dislikes and beliefs-->
Much like his [[sixth incarnation]], the Eleventh Doctor was willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Big Bang (TV story)}}, {{cs|Cold War (TV story)}}) often putting aside his own safety if his companions were endangered, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Name of the Doctor (TV story)}}) but admitted that he could be selfish at times, telling Amy that he had taken her with him because he was vain and wanted to be adored. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The God Complex (TV story)}})  
Though he initially hated certain foods, such as [[apple]]s and [[bacon]], because of his "new mouth", ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}}) he eventually came to like them. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Lodger (TV story)}}, {{cs|The God Complex (TV story)}}) However, he did not like [[sea pumpkin]]s, ([[GAME]]: {{cs|Shadows of the Vashta Nerada (video game)}}) or drinking any kind of [[wine]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Lodger (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}}) The Eleventh Doctor favoured the combination of [[fish finger]]s and [[custard]], which he called [[fish custard]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Power of Three (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}}) He liked [[Jammie Dodger]]s most of all, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Victory of the Daleks (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Doctor Drops In (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Impossible Astronaut (TV story)}}, {{cs|Night Terrors (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Bells of Saint John (TV story)}}) but also had a liking for [[cake]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Bells of Saint John (TV story)}}) with [[Pontefract cake]]s being one of his favourites. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Crimson Horror (TV story)}})


The Doctor liked Torodon tea ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Hunter's Moon (novel)}}) and decaffeinated frappuccinos, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Touched by an Angel (novel)}}) but disliked [[ginger biscuit]]s, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Dead of Winter (novel)}}) musk tea ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Dark Horizons (novel)}}) and [[bourbon biscuits]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Chasing the Dawn (short story)}}) His favourite fruit was the [[pomegranate]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Water Thief (novel)}}) and his favourite number was 11. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Day of the Doctor (novelisation)}})
<!--Examples following this point focus on this particular incarnation of the Doctor's likes and dislikes-->
The Eleventh Doctor loved visiting new planets, ([[TV]]: {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}) and having new experiences.

He also had a fondness for [[music]], and claimed to have played with various [[composer]]s and [[musician]]s. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)}}, {{cs|Dinosaurs on a Spaceship (TV story)}}) [[Amy Pond]] even once caught him attempting to conceal a [[Euphonium]] behind his back. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[Good Night (home video)|Good Night]]'') He liked [[the Beatles]], and thought that [[Ringo Starr]] was the most unappreciated member of the band, ([[GAME]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (video game)|City of the Daleks]]'') but also liked music more contemporary, at one time visiting a studio to contribute some urban backing vocals. ([[WC]]: ''[[Pond Life (webcast)|Pond Life]]'') However, he appeared to greatly dislike the "[[Chicken Dance]]", grimacing and plugging his ears upon hearing it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of Three (TV story)}})


The Eleventh Doctor liked [[museum]]s, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of Angels (TV story)}}) [[fluid control]]s, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Cold Blood (TV story)}}) [[sweets]], [[football]], [[custard cream]] biscuits, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Lodger (TV story)}}) "big flashy lighty things", [[cupboard]]s, ([[TV]]: {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}) [[cockerel]]s, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Rebel Flesh (TV story)}}) [[fairground]]s, ([[HOMEVID]]: {{cs|Good Night (home video)|Good Night]]'') buttons, [[hat stand]]s, ([[GAME]]: ''[[The Eternity Clock (video game)}}) rocks, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Dinosaurs on a Spaceship (TV story)}}) [[video games]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Angels Take Manhattan (TV story)}}) and [[carrier pigeon]]s.

The Doctor felt distressed when the subject of his future came into question, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Almost People (TV story)}}) preferring to keep his goodbyes short and swift, ([[GAME]]: {{cs|Return to Earth (video game)}}) and wanting to avoid his future rather than investigate it, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of Angels (TV story)}}) due to his dislike for endings.

([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Power of Three (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}})  


Because he saw the universe as "vast and complicated and ridiculous", ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Pandorica Opens (TV story)}}) where everything was "forever growing and shrinking and creating and destroying and never remaining the same for a single millisecond", ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of Three (TV story)}}) the Doctor believed that "impossible things" were the result of "miracles". ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Pandorica Opens (TV story)}})

([[TV]]: {{cs|Cold War (TV story)}}) He also saw board signs as "suggestions rather than orders".

While he could get annoyed when others ignored him due to kissing each other, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Big Bang (TV story)}}, {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}, {{cs|Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)}}) and was extremely confused on what to do after River and Clara kissed him for the first time, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Day of the Moon (TV story)}}, {{cs|The Snowmen (TV story)}}) the Eleventh Doctor was good at giving relationship advice, ([[TV]]: {{cs|A Christmas Carol (TV story)}}, {{cs|Hide (TV story)}}) and could become quite flirty with those he knew would be annoyed by his friendly remarks. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Impossible Astronaut (TV story)}}) However, he rejected the idea of being intimate with his friends, doing everything he could to stop Amy kissing him, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Flesh and Stone (TV story)}}) and got annoyed with being sniffed in a seductive manner.

Nearing the end of his life, the Doctor grew weary and accepting of his fate, not trying to avoid his death and resigning himself to his fate by refusing to abandon both the Time Lords and the people of Trenzalore. When the time came, the Doctor faced the Daleks fearlessly, wanting to protect Clara and the people of [[Christmas (town)|Christmas]] one last time. However, when the Time Lords unexpectedly granted him a new cycle of regenerations, the Doctor regained his old vigour and fighting spirit, using his regeneration to destroy the [[Dalek flying saucer]] and the attacking Daleks with it. Though restored to his youthful form, the Doctor continued to accept his forthcoming regeneration, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}}) though was unhappy to hear his next incarnation would be old and grey haired. He tried comforting Clara, first by phoning her future self to assure her his new incarnation would still be him, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Deep Breath (TV story)}}) and then telling her present self that people change throughout their lives and what was important was to remember who they were, promising to always remember when "the Doctor was [him]". Seeing hallucinations of [[Amy Pond]], the Doctor removed his [[bow tie]] as a sign of his passing, closed his eyes and prepared for the change. When Clara still protested, his last act was to smile back at her and offer his hand, but he regenerated before she could reach. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Time of the Doctor (TV story)}})

=== Skills ===
The Eleventh Doctor was a master strategist, able to win the first stage of the [[Battle of Demons Run]] in only three minutes and forty-two seconds, ([[TV]]: {{cs|A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)}}) and orchestrate the defeat of the [[Creevix]] with the aid of his previous incarnations.

The Eleventh was likely the incarnation of [[the Doctor]] who had met his own incarnation or copies of himself the most times. Very often through copying himself, the Doctor encountered (and occasionally battled) himself at the very least seven times.

* [[Paterson Joseph]] and Chiwetel Ejiofor both auditioned for the role of the Doctor {{fact}} and would have been the first black actor to play the role if he had been cast. [[Russell Tovey]] and James McAvoy were in the running to play the Eleventh Doctor, and so was [[Sean Pertwee]], the son of [[Jon Pertwee]].{{fact}}
[[File:Doctoer clone.jpg|thumb|The Doctor encounters his Prisoner Zero duplicate. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}})]]
 
Almost immediately after his [[regeneration]], [[Prisoner Zero]] imitated the Eleventh Doctor's form through [[Amy Pond]]'s mind. He did not recognise himself, having not yet had the time to study his new appearance. When the Doctor made Amy remember the alien's true form, Prisoner Zero immediately reverted to it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Eleventh Hour (TV story)}})
 
The Doctor later encountered a version of himself from a few minutes in his future who claimed to be dying. In reality, the older Doctor was buying himself time to enter the [[Pandorica]] by letting the [[Dalek]] chase his younger self and his friends. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Big Bang (TV story)}})
 
The Doctor again met himself when a Doctor from a few seconds later told him to use the [[wibbly lever]] to fix the [[space loop|space]] and [[time loop]]s occurring within the TARDIS. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time (TV story)}})
 
[[Eleventh Doctor (Ganger)|A Ganger replica]] of the Doctor was made when he and his [[companion]]s arrived at [[St John's Monastery]]. These two Doctors worked together to end the fighting between the [[human]]s and the [[Ganger]]s, even switching roles to prove a point on how the two sides were similar. The Ganger was destroyed sacrificing himself to protect the humans and the Doctor from [[Jennifer Lucas (Ganger)|Jennifer Lucas' Ganger]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Rebel Flesh (TV story)}}/{{cs|The Almost People (TV story)}})
 
While [[River Song]] was on her first date with the Doctor, another River and Doctor entered [[the TARDIS]]. The two Doctors exchanged a dialogue about River's fate and their last date with her at [[Darillium]]. ([[HOMEVID]]: {{cs|Last Night (home video)}})
 
Knowing he was to die, the Doctor hid in a [[Teselecta]] copy of himself to keep himself safe. He interacted with his companions through the Teselecta, and then was supposedly [[murder]]ed by River Song safe inside the robot duplicate. His "body" was also supposedly burned, but both the real Doctor and the ship remained unscorched and unharmed. He used this to pretend as if he ''were'' dead, and decided to keep a low profile from then on. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Wedding of River Song (TV story)}})
 
The Doctor once again used a copy of himself to battle against the [[Great Intelligence]] and its human slave [[Rosemary Kizlet]], this time in the form of a [[Spoonhead]]. While still at a [[café]] controlling the Spoonhead remotely, the Doctor made his other self enter [[the Shard]] and release [[Clara Oswald]] from the Intelligence's databanks. He achieved this by uploading Kizlet herself so she'd want desperately to leave, and then using [[Kizlet's tablet]] to get [[Mahler]] to obey Kizlet's orders to release everyone. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Bells of Saint John (TV story)}})
 
===Reference in literature===
In 1954, his former companion Amy, now a published author under her married name Amelia Williams, published ''[[Summer Falls]]'', a novel for children in which the lead character meets a man called the Curator. The Curator is based upon the Doctor, right down to his physical description and his use of the word "cool" to describe things. A later edition of the book included an introduction by Amy/Amelia directly addressed to the Doctor in which she describes meeting [[Clara Oswald|a woman with knowledge of the Doctor]]. This book at one point was read by Clara Oswald (who would call it one of her favourites), and later [[Angie Maitland]].

==Behind the scenes==
=== Costume ===
*Matt Smith has made several public statements — as on ''The Jonathan Ross Show'' and in the question-and-answer session following the [[New York City]] theatrical premiere of ''The Eleventh Hour'' — taking credit for the tweed jacket, braces and bow tie that his incarnation eventually wore. He has also relayed that there was some reluctance from [[Steven Moffat]] and other top executives to the bow tie in particular, but that it nevertheless "sat right" with his performance. Smith's influence — according to [[CON]]: ''[[Call Me the Doctor (CON episode)|Call Me the Doctor]]'' and a mid-April 2010 appearance on [[Fox Broadcasting Company]]'s {{wi|Strategy Room}} — was the character of Dr [[Indiana Jones]], as he was most often clothed on the campus of {{iw|indianajones|Barnett College}}.
*When queried about the exact nature of the bow tie, [[Karen Gillan]] told the audience of the [[2 April]] [[2010]] edition of the [[CBBC]] programme, ''Laugh Out Loud'', that Smith's bow tie wasn't a "proper" bow tie, but instead a {{w|Bow tie#Current|pre-tied dicky bow}}. This can be confirmed by carefully watching him put on the tie in'' The Eleventh Hour'', although the action is somewhat obscured by the [[Atraxi]] projection.

* One clothing retailer reported that in the month following the airing of [[TV]]: ''[[The Eleventh Hour (TV story)|The Eleventh Hour]]'', in which the Doctor declared that "bow ties are cool," its bow tie sales increased by 94%. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/doctor-who/7656389/Doctor-Who-prompts-surge-in-popularity-of-bow-ties.html|title=Doctor Who prompts surge in popularity of bow ties|date of source=30 April 2010|website name=The Telegraph|accessdate=22 February 2013}}</ref>

The events of both ''[[Journey's End (TV story)|Journey's End]]'' and ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'' retroactively complicate the question of whether this is the "eleventh" Doctor or not. Certainly, there are narratives like [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Age of Ice (comic story)|The Age of Ice]]'' in which Captain Kath Braxton explicitly call [[Tenth Doctor|his predecessor]] his "tenth incarnation". And other stories, like ''[[The Lodger (TV story)|The Lodger]]'' and ''[[The Name of the Doctor (TV story)|The Name of the Doctor]]'' make it explicit that he is the "Eleventh" Doctor. In ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'', the Doctor agrees with Clara that he is "number Eleven" ("Eleven" is also referred to in several poems, and indeed, the episode depicts the prophesied Fall of the Eleventh), and that his predecessor was "number Ten," while the so-called [[War Doctor]] (who he refers to as "Captain Grumpy"), as he chose not to use the name Doctor, is not included in the count. He says that, in terms of regenerations, the Tenth Doctor used two and the [[War Doctor]] also counted as one, meaning he has spent all twelve. He considers himself the eleventh incarnation to call himself the Doctor.
* {{wi|OOglies}} spoofed the Eleventh Doctor with a character going by the name "Doctor Rhubarb".


===Doctor Who: Legacy ===
=== Numbering ===
The Eleventh Doctor is the first incarnation of the Doctor to appear in the story of the ''[[Legacy (video game)|Doctor Who: Legacy]]'' mobile game. He is travelling with [[Vastra]] when he discovers that the [[Sontaran]]s are using [[time travel]] to wage [[war]] across [[space]] and [[time]]. Defeating their invasion of [[Cardiff]] in [[16 October]] [[1978]], he finds a [[Human (Legacy)|human companion]] and proceeds to travel through his [[timeline]], fighting various foes while recruiting numerous allies including his other selves.

However, while he says that the Tenth Doctor used two regenerations and the [[War Doctor]] also counted as one, meaning he is the thirteenth incarnation, he considers himself the eleventh incarnation to call himself the Doctor.

* While the Eleventh Doctor is the second Doctor to speak in an estuary accent, Matt Smith is the first actor to play the Doctor who actually has a natural estuary accent; [[David Tennant]]'s natural accent is Scottish and he faked an estuary accent to play the [[Tenth Doctor]].

* The fact the Doctor had a wooden leg during the later scenes of [[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'' was not indicated on screen. Only in the ''[[Tales of Trenzalore: The Eleventh Doctor's Last Stand]]'' story collection was this revealed.
* The Eleventh Doctor is the first incarnation of the Doctor since the [[First Doctor]] to travel with some family members in his TARDIS. Though he was long unaware of it, Amy and Rory were his parents-in-law and River his wife, though the wedding between him and River happened in a reality that did not exist. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Wedding of River Song (TV story)|The Wedding of River Song]]'')
* According to [[TCH 71|volume 71]] of ''[[The Complete History]]'', though not made clear in the episode, the scene in Henry VIII's bedroom in [[TV]]: ''[[The Power of Three (TV story)|The Power of Three]]'' was intended to show the TARDIS trio returning to get Rory's [[mobile phone]] [[phone charger|charger]] after Rory had left it behind before [[TV]]: ''[[A Town Called Mercy (TV story)|A Town Called Mercy]]''.
*The fact the Doctor had a wooden leg during the later scenes of [[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'' (and subsequently grew a new one upon regenerating) was not indicated on screen. Only in the ''[[Tales of Trenzalore: The Eleventh Doctor's Last Stand]]'' story collection was this revealed.
*Ironically, while the Eleventh Doctor never encountered [[the Master]] onscreen, the episodes containing both his first and last appearances in broadcast order featured two different incarnations of the Master. ([[TV]]: ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'', ''[[Deep Breath (TV story)|Deep Breath]]'')
**The Eleventh Doctor encountered the Tremas incarnation of the Master in [[COMIC|Comic]]: ''[[Prisoners of Time]]'', during the Master's alliance with [[Adam Mitchell]].
*{{wi|OOglies}} spoofed ''[[Doctor Who]]'' with this incarnation with a character going by the name Doctor Rhubarb.
* The Eleventh Doctor is one of the very few incarnations to have regenerated due to old age, as his other incarnations had either been poisoned, mortally wounded or (in the Second Doctor's case) forced to regenerate when they were still in good health and age, while his new regeneration cycle returned him to his youth he was still regenerating due to the Doctor having reached the end of his then current incarnation's natural life span and reaching such an advanced age and being close to death before regenerating, with the Eleventh Doctor himself explaining that his appearance had "reset" for his body to prepare itself for his second regeneration cycle, with no way to stop the regeneration process itself from continuing following the explosive results of the reset itself. The only two other incarnations to regenerate because of their age were, as of 2023, the [[First Doctor]] and the [[War Doctor]].
*According to [[TCH 71|volume 71]] of ''[[The Complete History]]'', though not made clear in the episode, the scene in Henry VIII's bedroom in [[TV]]: ''[[The Power of Three (TV story)|The Power of Three]]'' was intended to show the TARDIS trio returning to get Rory's [[mobile phone]] [[phone charger|charger]] after Rory had left it behind before [[TV]]: ''[[A Town Called Mercy (TV story)|A Town Called Mercy]]''.
*From his very first introduction up until his last regular story, the Eleventh Doctor is thus far the only incarnation of the Doctor during their tenure to have had no regenerations left in their regeneration cycle, following the Tenth Doctor's aborted regeneration in ''[[Journey's End (TV story)|Journey's End]]'' and full regeneration in ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'' which introduced the Eleventh Doctor along with the retroactive introduction of the [[War Doctor]] in-between the [[Eighth Doctor|Eighth]] and [[Ninth Doctor|Ninth]] Doctors, and became the only incarnation so far to almost permanently die because of it, although he was given a brand new regeneration cycle near the end of his last regular episode shortly before this was to happen.
