Talk:Jenny (The Doctor's Daughter)

Time Lord vs Gallifreyan
Surely Jenny is Gallifreyan and not yet Time Lord? Because it seems the only way to become a Time Lord to go through the academy, which of course, Jenny has not done. Even the Doctor says she isn't. Yes, he refers to seeing them through her, but surely that's just from most Time Lords being Gallifreyan, therefore he can still see them through her. Ben Moore512 ☎  16:20, September 23, 2018 (UTC)
 * The new Big Finish box set has confirmed that Jenny is a Time Lord. Garundel scans her DNA and says that he has seen it before (when meeting the Doctor in an earlier Big Finish play). It seems that the semantics of going to the Academy aren't considered by these newer releases. --Revan\Talk 17:13, September 23, 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh well. Maybe she's a Time Lord because her DNA is completely copied from the Doctor, not just the Gallifreyan parts. Ben Moore512 ☎  17:16, September 23, 2018 (UTC)
 * Or because modern writers (quite rightly in my opinion) are junking the "Academy graduates get genetic alterations to make them full Time Lords" idea just like they junked Looms. Which, you know, quite right in my opinion. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎  09:44, June 4, 2019 (UTC)

Per Tardis:Discussion policy, article talk pages are for discussing the editing of an article, not for speculation or opinion. Shambala108 ☎  04:59, June 5, 2019 (UTC)
 * Some of the posts in this discussion may have veered into speculation as part of this, but the point of this section is to discuss a point of editing in the article. Namely, Ben Moore512 feels that we oughtn't identify Jenny's species as "Time Lord" in the article. Revan and I argued against this suggestion. All in the business of editing.--Scrooge MacDuck ☎  17:27, June 5, 2019 (UTC)
