First I apologise if this has already been discussed but I would still like to raise an issue. I have noticed that various pages have different accounts of what happened to The Master at the end of End Of Time, my belief is that he DID NOT get taken back into the time war but merely burnt up his body, here is my evidence:

1. While there are no remains of him even clothes it seems logical to assume that he burnt up his body and the subsequent energy burnt up his clothes too as just using his "energy bolts" against The Doctor caused the latter's clothes to be burnt, as can been seen in the same scene and the deleted scene of The Doctor waking up xmas day.

2. Some people have said that The Master got taken back into the time war because he was a timelord but so is The Doctor and he remained.

3. There is no clear explaination for what happened to The Master so instead of writing that he was sent back into the time war or he was presumably sent back, or burnt up, as there is no canon evidence as far as I'm aware i.e. words from writers, producers or scenes that DEFINATELY show that The Master burnt up or was sent back into the time war, why can it not just be put that his fate in unknown?

Unless actually evidence such as visible quotes or visual evidence can be used to support a theory I think "fate unknown" would be the best thing to put.
