It seems that "there are only two episodes until death of the Doctor"; so, 
will the longest running SF series on TV finally come to an end?
  Or, will it be, as Mark Twain said, "The reports of my death are greatly 
exaggerated."
  Of course, the good Doctor has died many times before, but has 
reincarnated every time - since 1963.  This time it looks final, as even a 
Time Lord is mortal, and runs out of options.
   Perhaps the time-travel concept has exhausted its possibilities, or maybe 
BBC can no longer afford the production unit.
   But why should we bewail the death of someone who never existed in the 
first place?
   Maybe, as with Sherlock Holmes, public demand will insist on a Return?
   Or, there may be a sigh of relief that the Doc has gone at last.
   The Doctor is an Alien, if in human form, so maybe death will reveal his 
true appearance?
