User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-1272640-20161223201024/@comment-4028641-20170123031027 It's unclear is what it is. In the story, the Doctor does not say "I am the ninth Doctor, I have used up eight lives."

He says "Your cats have used up their nine lives -- much like me." So is he the Ninth Doctor? Or is he the Tenth doctor, because of him using up nine lives? Or is he the Thirteenth Doctor, because of him using up 'all of his lives' as the cat had?

It's unclear, so we shouldn't decide.
