Neat…

I like Bluey, so might watch one or two episodes to see what it’s like.

so where does this Doctor land in the regeneration cycle?

The literal Timeless Child...

If nobody choose to do anything with that plot again, or they do and it still doesn't stick — I hope this will become the standard response.

honestly I think after all the controversy I think it's only to be brought up as the hand wave explain why The Regeneration Cap no longer exists

[–] SiliconAvatar@startrek.website 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

That was explained during Moffat's run, though. Specifically Matt Smiths last episode.

nah that was more "here is a new regen cycle" so Cap still existed

[–] SiliconAvatar@startrek.website 1 points 2 minutes ago

Does it, though? In "Heaven sent" Rassilon isn't even sure how many regenerations they'd given the Doctor.

The timeless child might have indefinite regenerations, but if they were chameleon arched into a Timelord, that would be down to a genetic level, so regeneration cycles still count. In "Human nature"/"Family of Blood" John Smith is human through and through.

At a first glance, it looks fun enough! But I'm 40+ years out of the target group, so if the actual show turns out not to be for me... mission accomplished, I guess 🙂

The character Toast-IE did remind me of this old gem:
