Well, it might have carried on for a little longer with Patrick Troughton without regeneration, but I don't think it would have lasted much longer.

No, no, the series really thrived on changing the lead actor's faces unlike any before or since. Only series or franchise that comes close is the James Bond franchise only they dont bother explaining or acknowledging the change.

The changes kind of refresh the series. Always a good thing.

It is my understanding that the BBC considered ending the new series after Series Four, but RTD protested loud enough that they changed their minds...

True.

And no Rory, who became my favourite thing about Doctor Who.
