James Bond is most likely a Time Lord

I would remind my opponent that a counter hypothesis is not required to meet my burden of proof. Nor can he shift his BoP to being the idea that Bond is of alien or otherwise non-human origins.Accessibility"Con questions why the Doctor (or conversely Bond I assume) wouldn't simply seek another Time Lord out "The problem with this isn't that the Doctor holds no motivation in doing so, but that he simply isn't aware that another Time Lord exists on the planet." This would be highly unlikely for three reasons:- the time and location is extremely familiar to the Doctor. He would inevitably run into Bond at some point particularly when the third bullet point is taken into account.- the people that James Bond knows work for the same people in the same area that the Doctor does. Torchwood is military intelligence. They are pretty chummy with the doctor. Hell, most of Britain seems to be chummy with the Doctor nowadays. It is unlikely that they would either not know about Bond being a time lord (important member of military intelligence keeps regenerating - hmmm who would that remind them of) or them not telling Bond.- TARDIS takes the Dr where he needs to go - he doesn't always have explicit control, the TARDIS takes him where it is important for the Doctor to be. If there were another good time lord in existence, having dangerous adventures, it would be exceptionally unlikely for the TARDIS to never take him to him. (http://en.wikipedia.org...)De-matMy opponent seems unfamiliar with the events of the time war; every time lord was destroyed from time save two renegades and the council; the Doctor as the user, and the Master, using a chameleon arch at the end of time (http://tardis.wikia.com...) and the council escaped the time lock using the master (they sent a signal to him in 2009 before the use of the moment and escaped that way. The council were sent back almost imediately; the white point star was destroyed by the doctor and they went straight back in the time lock.It is given that Bond cannot be a member of the council (as character wise they are all accounted for and all sent back). Let us make the very unlikely assumption that there could even be another unknown renegade; for James Bond to have survived he would have needed to be renegade, which would not fit with his character (he fights for his country as a spy, why the hell would he not fight for his planet? And he certainly doesn't have any aversion to violence or war) and be using a chameleon arch at the end of time. Therefore with the master at the same tim. Yeah. These two events would be exceptionally unlikely and alone would fail your Burden of proof. AwarenessMy opponent makes the claim that there is no way to know if Bond would care; addmitedly true. However, the debate is about likeliness. What are the chances that if there were essentially the only other of your species, readily accessible due to the time and place, and well known by your colleagues (torchwood are a function of Military intelligence and the Doctor works with other parts of the British military frequently) you wouldn't even say hi? Furthermore, Bond evidently has a strong regard for people and kinship, as evidenced by his patriotism. For the purpose of the debate the idea he just doesn't want to is so unlikely it should be disregarded. Physiology"First, it must be noted that the Time Lord thesis doesn't preclude close confidants at MI6 from knowing of Bond's true identity. So the points regarding the untenability of him hiding his "condition" from physicians at MI6 doesn't hold weight." Fair enough, however, Dr Who is pretty knowledgeble about British Military and military intelligence. Furthermore, it would guarantee that members of Torchwood and other allies of the doctor would know about him. (Unless you are suggesting that they are confidants on a personal rather than professional level which is extremely unlikely given the number of people required to be in on it, and the magnitude the secret). Furthermore, it would be exceptionally unlikely that characters who would know the truth would lie about his background whilst the only other present character is Bond (for example M discussing Bond's childhood in Skyfall)However, Bond hasn't only been examined by members of MI6 for example He was held by the North Korean's in Die another day (http://en.wikipedia.org...) for 14 months. I know they're a little rubbish, but they'd almost certainly take a blood test or something similar at some point. He also ends up in a hospital in Casino Royale. They'd have checked his blood or taken his pulse or even felt how cold his body temperature is.I will concede that it is possible that references to his age could be refering to mental or physical weakness. However, that is exceptionally handwavy and these things add up in terms of probability." Moreover, credence is given to the point that Bond's psyche is deteriorating (to some degree) with age, much like the Doctor himself who continuously laments about his "old eyes" and lifetimes of experience. The Doctor 'feels' old and thus acts that way (to a degree). Cross-apply that to Bond."Other characters refer to Bond's age (such as M). It is clear that Craig's Bond has physically aged in far too short a period for a time lord.The nail in the coffin; I remembered when Bond was given a subcutenous implant. In casino royale M gives him an implant in his arm. A time lord's body would quickly reject this. Bond's did not. http://en.wikipedia.org...Continuity1) Conceded as entirely possible to mean anything2) Impossible (see previous section) and either way exceptionally unlikely. Three time lords all working for military intelligence? Not likely at all.3) Dropped - but my opponent will address next roundDropped arguments (addmitedly 2 is weak enough to ignore)- Women noticing how cold Bond is (literally - 16 degrees is damn chilly)- photographic memory never being used or demonstratedShapeshifter Addmitedly it would suffer the same issues regarding continuity, however, it would no suffer the conflicts or assumptions required to fit it into Whovian canon. Hence it is more likely.Multiple dimensions1) Under this thesis, they aren't references to previous incarnations, just that in that dimension events occured the same way. There are no explicit references to previous individuals experiencing the same events.2) Different dimensions, different time-lines. Certain things are invented before their time in other dimensions.This theory is superior in terms of explaining continuity of the Bond universe and would not conflict with Whovian canon.
