[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] [QUOTE]By the way, I still have Eric Roberts as the 13th Master. I don't recall it ever being said which regeneration Roger Delgado was, but we know the Corpse-Master (who may be Delgado's Master) was at the end of his 13th body. This then body snatched a scientist to become Anthony Ainley[/QUOTE]Again, it's very confusing. We only know for a fact that the corpse-Master was his 13th body and final regeneration. Even though he stole Ainley's body, he's still the 13th incarnation. However, what happened to him between the events of "Survival" and the Doctor Who movie is anyone's guess. The Master seen at the beginning of the movie doesn't look like Ainley; perhaps he stole another body? And if it was a Time Lord's body, did he get new regenerations? By the time he steals Eric Roberts's body, we really don't know what's going on with his life-cycle. [QUOTE]The Master is then regenerated by the Time Lords themselves to serve in the Time War, presumably giving him a new set of 13 lives. So where do these come from?[/QUOTE]In "The Five Doctors" we learn that the Time Lords can give the Master a new set of regenerations. There is no indication at all as to how they can do this, but the Master takes their word as gospel. (Which makes one think: if the Time Lords could do this, then why hasn't the Master [i]already[/i] done it?) Very ambiguous. [QUOTE]...Anthony Ainley (who my friend once clean bowled in a charity cricket match, so he says).[/QUOTE]When I was a kid, Ainley and Janet Fielding were guests at a convention in Baltimore. Ainley walked right past me and I didn't even recognize him, mainly because at the time he had gained weight and was wearing this ridiculous Uncle Sam costume. I of course was expecting a thin guy in a black Master costume. However, he was very nice and confessed to loving Americans (he wore the costume out of respect, not humor). I also liked the movie, but I also can understand why an English fan might not. I bought the region 2 DVD and made a region 1 copy to watch. P.S. One more thing: On the subject of "The Deadly Assassin," at least three Time Lords are killed (the President, Runcible, and Goth), yet none of them regenerate. Huh? I find it hard to believe that all three were in their final incarnations, which would have been the only reason why they didn't regenerate. Unless they all did it after the Doctor left?
