Revealed: The ultimate fate for Dr Who

There has been a lot of talk about how the new Dr Who, played by Matt Smith is the youngest Dr Who ever, the previous record being held by Peter Davidson in the early 1980's. It does seem, however, that the trend has been for the Doctor to get younger. Where will this ultimately lead? I spent 5 minutes googling for the answer, and I didn't find one, so I did my own analysis.

Age by Regeneration

As you can see from the graph below, the Doctor will become a foetus on the 28th incarnation.

Regeneration by year

So when will the 28th Regeneration take place? The graph below shows that this will happen around 2090.

So there you have it: the Doctor will become a foetus around 2090.

Comments:

I thought the regeneration only works 13 times

The Master got extra regenerations granted for the Time War, so it looks like the 13 regeneration limit might have been a Time Lord law or something instead of a biological limit.

It was my belief from the Doctor Who Movie was that The Master regenerated into a symbiotic ooze that would posses a body, and once the body died he could simply leave and find a new host.
