Yeah, Karen's quitting alright - but Mat will be around for at least one more season! About the resurections/transformations: I've read that the Doctor only can regenerate 12 times, and somewhere else I read he can do it about 512 times... |
The last few epsodes Karen Gillan has mainly been a guest rather than The Doctor's companion. Shame to see her go, maybe she will come back on occasion a-la Billie Piper and Freema Agyeman. (although they have been entirely absent from the 11th Doctor, the only link between 11th and previous Doctor's has been River Song)
Also yeah I remember something about it being 12 regenerations, but I don't think it has been mentioned about a limit in any of the new series... I expect it will be glossed over when the time comes that the 12th Doctor doesn't want to continue.
