    There's some of the First Doctor's ruthlessness. The other Doctors tries to save Borussa from his own stupidity while the First Doctor encouraged it. In his first regeneration, the Doctor wasn't a good man until Ian and Barbara softened him up and made him realise the value of compassion.

    Everyone forgets (or hasn't seen) the First Doctor considering braining a caveman with a rock. I don't regard the First Doctor as a bad man per se, but he was pragmatic and wanted to protect his granddaughter, and the Ship, at all costs. He was very much on the run, always looking over his shoulder.

    As someone who's only really seen NuWho it actually makes me love the character way more to know that he didn't start out as compassionate. The appeal of the Doctor to me is that at the end of the day he's not THAT different from the rest of the Time Lords. He wasn't just magically the only Time Lord who gave a damn. He was just a bit more open minded than average. That led to compassion and a very powerful imagination that caused him to grow into the man we see him become. Knowing he earned his status as a hero is what helps suspend disbelief and respect him more. It's not quite the right quote because I'd hardly have ever called the Doctor evil, but one of the greatest lines ever written in any story is: "What is better, to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Or: "What is better, to be born a hero or to learn how to become one through great effort?" And for these reasons I refuse to consider the Timeless Child storyline as canon. They ought to scrap that whole storyline. And before someone says it's too late, this is Doctor Who. This show reinvents itself all the time. Just have it so the Doctor was tricked and the Timeless Child was some sort of deception for a greater purpose. And make it so the Master faked the destruction of Gallifrey, and maybe even undo that Master's entire regeneration by revealing he wasn't even the Master. On multiple occasions we've seen characters in Doctor Who tricked into believing they're someone they're not. If they take their time with the script, they could fix everything. Plus, we never saw Twelve's perspective in Day of the Doctor. We just know he was there. That could be worked into a future episode if Twelve were to discover that Gallifrey needed to be saved again. Also for the record I'm not trying to just undo female Doctors. I think the idea of a female Doctor was actually really well set up by the mention of Time Lords occasionally switching gender during regeneration in Eleven's run and then the introduction of Missy in Twelve's run, as the gender swap was a key part of her deception so the Doctor didn't guess she was the Master too soon. All of that was setup that primes us to accept that this is possible. I don't think Jodie did well with the role (although she'd have at least done better with better scripts), but with better casting a female Doctor would have been genuinely amazing.

    If you read the extended universe of DW (mostly non-canon you can say) I want to think that the more regenerations, the more he gets further away from his original form, The Other... That can explain why the First Doctor is that respected by the other incarnations. It can solve this mess.

    Chris Payne the First Doctor has not had the trauma of regeneration amnesia to alter his personality, plus as the First he has probably seen all of the others and taught them things at one point or another. It's an unofficial rule that when Doctors meet like this (except perhaps the First) the youngest is the one who remembers it. Also there is nothing to say that the First Dr isn't the most experienced; like with the 8th Doctor they tend to have many "off camera" adventures. Remember, he is the only numbered Dr to die of exhaustion and old age, the others all died without getting old.

    The war doctor novels explains that Rassilon learned to cycle through regenerations. But the prisoners he experimented cycled through it constantly. Perpetual and eternal, and continous bodily regeneration never settling down. Faceless or half formed always changing, flowing from one to the next without stop or pause. They live frozen in place in time. Unable to escape. Only to fuel Rassilon. History made him a hero. He was not. Ruthless product of his time. Used others to fuel his rise to power. Too egocentric to trust Galifrey and The Universe to get along without him. Never mind the final ultimate weapon. The Armegedon Sapphire. The weapon to end the universe and just before it does to elevate the time lords up into the abstract planes like the Eternals. All to save their own skins from the Daleks. Not a nice man at all. The Doctors realizing this wisely just want away from him as fast as possible and to rescue their trapped self and their friends. That type of sociopathic monster lets you live because you amuse him or because doing an ocassional good act makes them feel virtuous. Don't press your luck or try their patience. Just as likely to kill out of spite alone.

    Children can see more clearly than adults and the First Doctor is, by Time Lord standards, a child. Despite having a grandchild, he's a whippersnapper compared to the others and therefore maintains a child's ability to see the obvious. The Second Doctor's basically the excitable teenage years and the Third is the beginning of adulthood.

    Power corrupts. Which is why the Doctor refuses to hang around when they offer him the Presidency again. (He was democratically elected during the events of the Deadly Assassin but has never served a full term, holding the office three times during his Fourth, Fifth and Twelfth incarnations because circumstances demanded it and abdicating the position as soon as possible. In this story he holds the office precisely long enough to appoint Flavia to act in his place, and then runs like hell).

    We don't know that Jack is really immortal. When Bad Wolf Rose resurrected him, he became unable to stay dead, with normal Rose and Ten both calling him immortal, but maybe immortal was a bit of a stretch. Maybe Bad Wolf Rose just made him able to live incredibly long. Couple billion years (if Jack really is the Face of Boe). It's not actual immortallity but still.... 5 billion years is close enough to it, I'd reckon.

I always thought Borussa's Fate was really scary, to be stuck as a living statue/gargoyle on Rassilon's tomb Forever only able to move your eyes around to witness other winner's of Death zone seeking imortality, that was a pretty Metal fate for a Dr. Who villain :O I do love this story as well! :)

    Watching through these reminds me just how much I miss Pat Troughton. THE Doctor I my opinion.

    At the time this was made, Tom Baker was working on another movie and yes, he declined but not because he had lost interest or "just didn't want to". SPOILER ALERT: I do like the ending of the "Day of the Doctor" however. Very well done.

    pvtrichter88 Dimensions in Time? I personally didn't care for that, the writing seemed pretty poor to me. It obviously isn't a matter of let's throw in everything but the kitchen sink, they have to fit into the story somehow, even if as only throways. They kind did that w/the dalek scene in this, as well as the yeti, let alone mike yates, liz shaw, jamie and zoe who were all phantoms of the mind through rassilon's will. But they fit organically into the story and, while it wasn't perfect, it made sense. I didn't find that w/DiT. But if it floats your boat, good on ya.

    Newly revealed information suggests he didn't do it because he didn't care for JNT, disagreeing immensely with his creative direction and feeling "diminished" under him. This is his newly cited reason for leaving the show, and given the relatively close proximity to his leaving and the Five Doctors those feelings were still probably fresh to him.

    I wouldn't claim immortality either, if it meant spending immortality in a stone purgatory.

    Stefano Pavone Nobody's ever been sure about old Rassilon; as the Troughton Doctor said, some stories told of him being a cruel dictator.
