You forgot the Danish & Norse Vikings, not to mention some Romans.

My ancestors were Danish Vikings who came to northern Britain in the 7th century....and never left (until the mid-17th century, when they came to North America).
My Ancestors are Viking too. I couldn't list everyone though.
 
Previous stories seem to indicate that Time Lords can sense who other Time Lords are despite regenerations.

Except The Doctor didn't know Missy was the Master in Death In Heaven (or the other part of that two parter). Didn't even know she was a Timelord until he questioned her because of the Timelord Tech she was using.

And not for nothing, the War Doctor didn't know who 10 or 11 was nor did 10 know who 11 was at first either.
 
Yes but go back to stories like The Deadly Assasin" and from memory they seemed to regonise one another. And the 10th Doctor seemed to know it was The Master in "Utopia"

True, but this is not very consistent, so you would have to go by the most recent instance, in this case, Death in Heaven. This probably a non issue though anyways.
 
Or maybe a human Meta- crisis...

The next Doctor might look like Donna Noble...

Mayhap MISSY is the next Doctor...

Well.. Michelle Gomez did say she was not going to play Missy anymore after this season..hmm lol -- Internet blows up ---
 
I really liked this episode--reminded me more of Classic Who than any episode has in awhile. Not the greatest episode ever, no--it was a bit cheesy and felt a little over the top--BUT I think it worked. There were lots of little jokes, banter, the "oh wow, the Doctor is really COOL" moments for Bill, etc. A solid, good episode.

No he didn't. Not until Yana got his memory back. And even then it was because of the fob watch.

Yes but Yana wasn't The Master until he got he became a Time Lord again. Once he was a Time Lord agin, The Doctor seemed to know it was The Master as opposed to another Time Lord.
 
The Doctor recognised Harold Saxon as being a Time Lord.

Easily enough considering he heard his voice coming from the TARDIS the Master had just hijacked, in the previous episode... And he was looking for the newly regenerated Master, so paying attention.

But I don't think it was because of some sort of Time Lords know each other thing. The Doctor reasoned it out. And the pile of bodies was a pretty big clue.

In the end of Time we saw they could smell the energy signature of each other. Also, go back to Logopolis..

In many ways they have the same mind.. when Adric asked if the Master Read the Doctor's mind..

In other words, like most of Doctor Who, rules are not consistent from story to story. Best to not think about them.

LMAO this is true. But hey, that's what comes along with being a Whovian with the longest running scifi series in the world. bound to be lots of inconsistencies. it's like being a Transformers fan..G-1 is the best of course.
