'I think that was the intention.'
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Fifth Doctor Peter Davison opens up about his feelings on Doctor Who's 60th-anniversary bi-generation twist and its wider implications for past incarnations of the Doctor. Davison took on the role of the Time Lord's fifth incarnation following Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor in 1982's "Castrovalva" and helmed the TARDIS until 1984's "The Caves of Androzani.
"The whole bi-generation thing is an interesting concept .. The thing is I don't really quite understand it. I was a huge fan of Doctor Who but I'm not as mad a fan as David Tennant. And the bi-generation basically apparently means that my doctor still exists so I can be brought back at any point, even with my older self to do a new story. I think that was the intention.
There are still many unanswered questions about Doctor Who's first bi-generation as to how the near-impossible myth could have wider implications for the Doctor. While season 4's Metacrisis event produced a similar second part-human Tenth Doctor from an unpredictable set of variables that would age like a regular human, it is unknown what will happen to Tennant's Fourteenth Doctor following his retirement.
With Gatwa's Doctor Who season 14 acting as a fresh entry point for the series, it is unlikely that answers about the bi-generation's wider implications will come anytime soon. Despite this, Davison's comment not only allows another Doctor to respond to the twist, but also highlights that he is aware of the potential the decision may hold. With Davies having big ambitions for Doctor Who's future, perhaps there is room in the universe for a past Doctor to make more trips.
