Howling:River giving the Doctor her regenerations

Did River use all of her regenerations to revive the doctor, or did she use only one to revive him and gave him all the rest? If so, does the Doctor have regenerations after his normal thirteen regeneratioos? (it does sound like a way to keep the show going after the Thirteenth Doctor dies). 98.242.167.50talk to me 12:46, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

it is generally thought that the doctor didn't gain the regenerations from river, but it was never outright stated on screen, only implied. so, although unlikely, if the writers get desperate they could say she gave him extra regenerations but i doubt they will.

 * Amy specifically said that she used up all her regenerations. There would be no reason for her to actually transfer her regenerations to the Doctor if he didn't need them to survive the poison, and they would have stated it much more directly if this was their plan to keep the show going past the 13th Doctor.Icecreamdif ☎  15:09, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * If the writers can't think of anything else, they can just say that the 12-regeneration limit was artificially enforced by the Time Lords &, with them gone, no longer applies. But if the writers can't think of anything else, they shouldn't be writing for Doctor Who (or any other show). The Doctor couldn't stop her sacrificing her regenerations to save his life but, if a transer such as the one suggested had happened, he'd be able to give them back. It would undermine the Doctor's character badly if he didn't at least make a very determined effort to do so. --89.240.251.36talk to me 15:11, October 3, 2012 (UTC)
