: Not knowing how long the Time War lasted and at what point in the war the Doctor regenerated means that there is no way to know for certain how long the Ninth Doctor has been around for by the time he meets Rose although there is some evidence(the many pictures of him throughout history) that he has been around for at least a little while). Given previous events it is unclear why the Doctor is now claiming to be about 900 years old but again, since he seems to be even more deeply hiding behind the name(earlier incarnations just didn't talk about it and brushed off inquiries, the Ninth and Tenth are described as hiding behind the name with dispair) means that it is quite likely that the Doctor is counting only the years that he has been the Doctor(kind of like Darth Vader, he is ceased to be who he was before, at least in his own mind, and became someone knew). This would seem to be reinforce by the Doctor's commend "900 years of Time and Space. . ." which would indicate that is how long he has been travelling. Not knowing how old he was when he regenerated means that there is no way of knowing how long this regeneration lasted although it is concievable that it is only a few years. | : Not knowing how long the Time War lasted and at what point in the war the Doctor regenerated means that there is no way to know for certain how long the Ninth Doctor has been around for by the time he meets Rose although there is some evidence(the many pictures of him throughout history) that he has been around for at least a little while).

: The Tenth Doctor claims to be about 900 after regeneration and 906 right before he regenerates in his next body and taking those numbers to be literall and not the Doctor just pulling random numbers out of the air, just guess, or deliberately lying, then this regeneration has lasted about 6 years. This puts this incarnation as definitely shorter lived than the First, Fourth, Seventh, and Eighth Doctors, almost certainly less than the Second and Sixth, probably less than Three and possibly Five and there is no way of telling with Nine, although it is certainly concievable that he was around for a bit as well. | : The Tenth Doctor claims to be about 900 after regeneration and 906 right before he regenerates in his next body and taking those numbers to be literall and not the Doctor just pulling random numbers out of the air, just guess, or deliberately lying, then this regeneration has lasted about 6 years.

Also, the Tenth says in The Resurrection Casket that he has been ready [to die] for about 150 years. [[User:Mernimbler|Mernimbler]] 22:00, January 26, 2011 (UTC) | ||
: The idea that the Doctor is just pulling some random number out of his head or deliberately lying could possibly be confirmed by the possibly days old(possibly a bit longer given his several moments of disappearing in the Eleventh Hour and possibly with a good bit of travelling between Victory of the Daleks and The Time of Angels(although that is very unlikely) but even then he can't be more than a month or two, at the absolute outside) saying he is 907 all of a sudden although that is entirely speculation.[[User:Doorofnight|Doorofnight]] | : The idea that the Doctor is just pulling some random number out of his head or deliberately lying could possibly be confirmed by the possibly days old(possibly a bit longer given his several moments of disappearing in the Eleventh Hour and possibly with a good bit of travelling between Victory of the Daleks and The Time of Angels(although that is very unlikely) but even then he can't be more than a month or two, at the absolute outside) saying he is 907 all of a sudden although that is entirely speculation.[[User:Doorofnight|Doorofnight]] | ||
