Everything you thought you knew about The DOCTOR is wrong. He's not a TIME LORD from a planet called GALLIFREY, he's simply an earthman from the far-flung future, who, in order to withstand the rigours of experimental time-travel (before it was perfected), had a second (cloned) heart transplanted into him. His regenerations are a result of future technology, built into the TARDIS, and not the result of any inherent ability on the part of The Doctor. Thing is, he's delusional, and all this Gallifrey crap is just in his head, though his adventures are otherwise real enough.
The Doctor is not a clown, or a cosmic hobo, or a non-violent pacifist - nor is he a 'superhero', or a gender-changing freak, or the saviour of the universe, feared by The DALEKS and other alien races. He's just a traveller, a meddler, a historian, who somehow finds himself and his companions involved in exciting escapades in different points in time.
Well (in regard to that last sentence), he would be if I had anything to do with it!
