In both cases, there was no harm to the body before the regeneration, and I would imagine that the Time Lords can perform a regeneration on someone as skillfully as that person could do it himself. So, if that's the case, Pertwee's Doctor should be in as good, or better shape in "Spearhead from Space" as Romana II in "Destiny of the Daleks." . ------- |-----| A. G.
