I feel like they didn't think this revelation through. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}On the one hand it does explain those extra Doctors from The Brain of Morbius and why the Doctor's age is inconsistent because they can never remember it clearly.
On the other hand what happened to the Doctor running out of regenerations in Time of the Doctor and needing to be gifted a whole new set? And why was River Song able to regenerate? That was dismissed as a side effect of her being conceived in the time vortex but we know now that's not true. This is just more of a mess you more you think about it.

Also: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}The Master: Remember that stuff with the Irish cop last week? I was beaming those images into your head. Which I should point out because it really didn't seem like you were reacting to them. And another thing I just realised. {Spoiler}If all this information is hidden away in the Matrix how the heck did The Master access it? And why didn't The Master find all this when he was in messing around with the Matrix in The Deadly Assassin?

The big continuity thing eh it's DW if you don't like something in continuity wait a season.
Double that bit about good thing I mentioned I was beaming that cop stuff into your mind that she didn't react too. Nor looked like it was referenced to anything.
So....The time lords died but didn't regenerate.
But put them in new fancy gallifrey styled cybersuit they took time to make... and suddenly they can regenerate again?
That doesn't even making a passing lick of sense.
But the episode should have some internal continuity for at least like 5 seconds.
Edit: finished yeah this... was not a great series...
The cast and characters are good but ths stories have been just not good.

That I'm not bothered by, I'm assuming it was easier and he had longer to work it out after wiping out the planet rather than having to move in the shadows of a working Time Lord society.

Makes one wonder why the Time Lords didn't bother to REDACT this information the same way they REDACTED everything to do with The Division

Currently feeling like I did leaving the cinema after watching The Rise of Skywalker.
An amiable smile on my face, with a vague and growing looming background worry that I hadn't really considered some very large problems caused by it yet.

But he only nuked Gallifrey afterward in reaction to finding the truth.

This is probably for the best. My biggest complaint of the Jodie Whittaker-era has been that there are just too many regular characters floating around and their struggling to find things for them to do. That said, the one it looks like they're keeping on the regular is probably the least interesting of the group.

Somewhere out there there’s a bunch of Thirteen/Yaz shippers who just got super-excited.

Well they are usually more creative with the two of them than the show has ever mustured Still, I'm one of the few...what , 5% that prefer Graham and The Doc..even the writer of Doctor Who Magazine's comic strip 'ships them, as the last strip serial seemed to indicate.

Graham and her have an interesting connection, was hoping that would get explored more next season. Still, I like Yaz so at least she is sticking around. Wonder if it'll just be those two going forward.

I don't know where else I'd post this; but I was just thinking about this, who would you pick to be the next Dr, it could be any actor or actress? As a casual Dr Who fan...like, very casual, it'd either be Benedict Cumberbatch, Emma Watson or Daniel Radcliffe.
How has the first female Dr. Who been? Because I've heard mixed reactions.

She's been fine as the Doctor.
The problem are the stories surrounding her and the companions have mostly been bunk.
But that's how I felt for Capaldi's run too.
