So, yeah. Time war. Not only can it make Silurians look like Jem'Hadar, not only can it make Daleks actually frightening again, not only can it suddenly make the Doctor susceptible to romance... it can make him fricking immortal as well.
At least address the Valeyard thing when you get to 12, huh?
Okay, dude, no, I am not in any way upset that the 13-life limit has been quietly brushed aside. It was a plot device back in bloody 1976. Okay, that's a bit like plucking another random plot device - let's say the time agents from The Talons of Weng-Chiang... oh wait, never mind...
Here we go. Two hearts. At no point during the 60s did any character examine the often-unconscious Doctor and comment on his double heartbeat. Guy can grow an extra heart, guy can trump the 12-regeneration limit.
