Beardy wrote:The limit though I don't know...I know that the master hit about 11 regenerations and started dying until he struck a deal with the council for more 'lives'. With no council now though.....maybe there is no limit? Maybe it is until both hearts stop and the doctor actually dies? We should find out in a generation's time!

V.E. Day wrote:Quite often there have been stories about The Master trying to steal the Doctor's remaining regenerations so he could live longer as he'd worn out all his regenerations in the 1970s. I think that was the general plot of The Deadly Assassin when his body was so decayed his face looked like a skeleton.

He turned into Joanna Lumley during the Comic Relief spoof The Curse of Fatal Death. It's very much not canon.
