I’m not too sure - it would take away too much of the character’s mystery surrounding their identity, which has pretty much been an integral part of the franchise since its creation. If they were to do that, it would have to be in the very last instalment EVER of the franchise, and there has been no indication from the owners and creators that the franchise is coming to an end.

Well it was included for a reason, there have been leaks that…. (Dont read unless you want to) Ncuti will regenerate into the Valyard towards the end of his run, and learn about it from other Doctor’s in his first season. I’m guessing this is where the Memoried Tardis comes from. 🤷♂️ And will happen in 73 Yards.

In the words of Tom Baker no Doctor has ever failed they are all fantastic in their own way. The Doctor's name is Bill Who 😅.
Unlike everyone else, I didn't have a problem at all with Jodie Whittaker being casted as the 13th Doctor, nor do I have a problem with Ncuti Gatwa being the 15th Doctor. The whole Timeless Child arc with the Fugitive Doctor still confuses me, but maybe if I just look into it a bit more, I'll someday figure it out. And I know John Hurt's Doctor was the War Doctor, and not actually a numbered incarnation of the Doctor. The next numbered Incarnation of the Doctor after Paul McGann's 8th Doctor is Christopher Eccelston's 9th Doctor.

I’m very glad they addressed the Valyard here. Makes me feel like it’s gonna be elaborated on soon.
This is wonderful
On the note of the Bigeneration of the 14th and 15th doctors: I'd like to point out that the 14th Doctor, after escaping from the Not Things in Wild Blue Yonder, told Donna that he, quote, "Shouldn't have done that thing with the salt." He had invoked a superstition in the one place where you DON'T do that kind stuff. The edge of literal REALITY. Where the Walls are thin and ANYTHING is possible.

It's a fairly well paced video and there's a couple of things in here I wasn't expecting, so I've been left quite surprised and happy.
When it comes to other doctors that the doctor could run into there's also the unbound doctor (one of 7 have entired the main universe) and the morbius doctors and the two curators. There's also the curse of fatal death doctors and the shalka doctor. And there's the meta crisis doctor. There's also possibly the inferno universe doctor and the doctor from the reality that klein created after the 7th doctor and ace land in colditz.

Interesting they're mentioning the Valeyard in this "for the normies" video. Maybe the one who waits is the Valeyard. The being even the Toymaker fears being an evil Doctor... that does make sense. And bi-regenration maybe is a backdoor origin for the character. Also, let's not forget Mel would also know the Valeyard. So it all lines up somewhat.

At this point I´m not sure I even need the name of the Doctor because maybe the first name they were given has also a special meaning but since then the Doctor changed so much that it may wouldn´t even fit them anymore. I discovered the show for me with the 11th Doctor and watched all the episodes before the 12th Doctor took so I only know the Doctor from this point onward and that is the picture I have from them and I like what I see. :)

Inevitably the Master, Monk, Rani, Rassilon, and/or Omega will come back, so "believes" probably isn't major foreshadowing. That being said, in Hell Bent the Doctor exiled Rassilon and the High Council. Unless the Master found and killed/converted them too, they should still be out there. I imagine they'll pull on that plot thread eventually, but they probably won't start the "new" series 1 with the return of Gallifrey's former top dogs. They could be final foes for Ncuti's last season, though! We'll have to wait and see.

I’m very new to this show so I don’t know if this has been done already, but I think it’d be really funny if they introduced a Doctor that’s a semi-benevolent Dalek

Next season can't come fast enough.
Doctor Who has been such a big part of my life since I was first introduced to it by my mum back in 2005! From christopher eccleston's ninth doctor to ncuti gatwa's fifteenth doctor, from the daleks to the cybermen and the master, from rose tyler to ruby sunday, the show has become such an iconic part of so many people's lives! For me the tardis is just so magical and the music is just beautiful! The monsters and aliens, the sonic screwdriver, the psychic paper! I could list so many things that have become so iconic because of doctor who! I'm loving discovering the classic era of the show too! I'm so excited to see what's ahead for this absolutely fantastic show! ❤❤🔷😊
The doctor/timeless child is a time lord from gallifrey he's a billion years old and saved lives so many times and stopped bad guys like daleks/cyberman/sontarans so many enemies he himself has faced has stopped them to keep the universe/multiverse in safe hands
if the valeyard is next could be both american and irish either tecteun or theta sigma
What's their name? 'Hidden in plain sight', it's got to be J'Onn Sumeesu, hasn't it? ;)
He's a Timelord, from the planet of Gallifrey in the constelation of Kasterbouros. He's around 5.000 years old and, yes: He's a time traveler, the best of 'em Oh, and also: His name's Thetasigma Exsquared

Love all the doctors. Also love the classics
The valeyard being mentioned makes me truly think that they may be appearing in this era (there's also a rumor going around that's proven to be pretty accurate that states that the valeyard is returning, but take with a HUGE grain of the saltiest of salts). I think we may also meet even more pre hartnell doctors! Hopefully we get the answers we didn't get with the chibster!
Doctor Whooooooo?
I truly don’t think I’ve ever been so excited in anticipation my whole life. After coming across so much racism and homophobia on Facebook coming here ive read some beautiful comments that have restored my faith in humanity. Ncuti is so charming and i think, like all previous regenerations, he will be magnificent.

This video paired with RTD's recent statements puts me at ease with his take on the Timeless Child. I'm one of the many who despises it, but this breakdown combined with him saying they're playing more into the emotions of it... that the Doctor has that baggage of thinking he's an orphan, but "there's a chance" that TTC is true and could be a myth/legend and could be the Toymaker messing around... I can live with that. Ultimately, at least RTD is actually doing something with it.
