I just removed this, because it's unclear what exactly the writer is trying to say:

'Furthermore, throughout the original twenty-six year run, there was the repeated indication that if the Doctor--and, by implication, any Time Lord--is killed, he's dead. And the fate of the Master in "Last of the Time Lords" (2007) reinforces this, as, mortally wounded, he simply refuses to regenerate and lets himself truly die rather than be imprisoned for the remainder of his existence, to the Doctor's consternation. On the other hand, the circumstances of the seventh-to-eighth Doctor regeneration in the 1996 Doctor Who TV-movie flatly contradicts this, as appears to be the case with the fourth Doctor's statement in The Brain of Morbius, that his people chose to not live forever because "death is the price of progress."' —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andral (talkcontribs) 00:21, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

  • It reeks of original research anyway beyond the difficulty in understanding the meaning. --Deadly∀ssassin(talk) 09:16, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
