The General regenerated into a woman last series and the previous incarnation didn't kill himself.

So there is an audio of dubious canon, if I remember right, that establishes that if a Time Lord kills themself they regenerate into a different gender; kind of a problematic concept but one that I had been thinking about ever since Missy was introduced, especially since we didn't know how Simms!Master had died. It just seemed like the type of obscure lore Moffat would love to include. And now we find out he actually did kill himself - albeit a future regeneration rather than the traditional suicide. That's just too much of a coincidence for me to not believe Moffat was giving a nod to longtime fans. Which would of course rule out the possibility of a female 13th Doctor in Moffat's mind, but then again he's stepping down and the new show runner may well have different ideas; having the Master regenerate into Missy turned a corner in that it made the possibility of a female Doctor much more acceptable. Plus Curse of Fatal Death had a female 13th, so that could also be a nod to the fans. that audio is a bad audio.

Still an episode behind, so I won't be reading this thread for a few days yet, but I am up to date on the very latest development you-know-the-one. This is a humorous comeback about it.

I'm not as annoyed as I expected to be. But now I hope they are doing it properly and giving her a younger male companion who flirts with people more than she does and let her be in charge.

Am sorry I missed this, this is excellent. (Even if it would require some sort of memory-wipe following it for the timeline to be preserved; the entire reason River keeps not recognizing the Twelfth Doctor in Husbands of River Song is that she doesn't know her husband ever got more regenerations, which she would if she'd already met Thirteen by then.)
