So I was watching a clip from the Doctor Who episode The War Game, that specific clip being when the Second Doctor regenerates when I just realized something. When the Time Lords force the Second Doctor to regenerate, it was seen as a change of face for viewers in the 60s/early 70s. But since today it's seen as using up one of his twelve regenerations, it's as if they are executing the Second Doctor during this regeneration, by forcing him to regenerate for his past crimes, similarly to how criminals are given a death sentence when they commit a serious crime. And then I remembered that in the revival of Doctor Who, the Tenth Doctor compares regeneration to death, where he says that one man dies while a new one walks off. If this logic is used, then it means the Second Doctor was in fact executed. He was given a death sentence at the end of The War Games, and was killed when he regenerated.
