As Doctor 4 (Tom Baker) faked his death (swapping his old self as The Watcher for his young self ) and lived to be a ripe old age being the caretaker.
What if he had a family? What happened if he had children?
Could Ozgood be one of his Grand-daughters?

Somehow the Watcher became the fifth Doctor and carried on, leaving the fourth Doctor as a human, to age and live a 'normal' life. Kind of like what happened with the tenth Doctor and the human substitute that remained with Rose.
It doesn't quite fit with what we saw on screen in Castrovalva (Tom Baker didn't remain behind when Peter Davison was staggering around in that coat and scarf), but I'm not sure that matters too much.
Nice idea.
Oh, it only takes a moment to create a directors cut with the extra line "emergency temporal shift" dubbed on. Where do you think the Daleks got it from, that's timelord technology ;-)
This could be a way of getting the previous Doctors back into the show, if they ever need to, and would easily explain why they have aged. They are simply 'their' Doctor, but in semi-human form with only their remaining natural lifespan.
The actual Doctor has continued, regenerated, and travelled on.
But we could still have a 'human' Doctor that looks like Tom Baker who has lived a full life and works as a Curator in a museum (but who still retains his memories of when he was The Doctor). And there could be another 'human' Doctor who now looks like a 60 year old Peter Davison - perhaps he worked as a vet in Yorkshire or something. And so on.
What do you think?
So you say that the Doctor can choose his form now when before he couldnt? I presume that you are saying that with the gift of a new set of regens he got in Time of... he got this new ability too?
No... he just keeps dropping by Karn.
Horcruxes!
lol I somehow doubt that after what Tom Baker's Doctor says in Brian of Morbius about not relying on the elixir.
That's a new one I haven't heard before.
No. Not to be nit-picky, but it's Brain of Morbius.
sorry easy mistake to make whist typing!:D
Well yes I know thats the case with the others, I thought that maybe the Doctor couldnt.
And of course Two was offered a number of choices but was well picky so the Time Lords themselves decided to go distinguished grey. And that look appears to be in fashion again.
...so i always thought where the Watcher had come from went like this...
Timeline 1 -
The Doctor falls, hits the ground, and has a botched regeneration which leaves him looking like a snowman in bad focus, then travels back in time as the Watcher creating...
Timeline 2 -
This time round the Watcher is there to "fill in the gaps" so to speak enabling the 4th Doctor to regenerate properly.
That just always made sense that way to me, and i still think it would have been a neat way to explain it ...... though it wouldn't have helped any with the "Morbius Doctors" debate
I really want Brian Of Morbius to be made.
I refer to what the Matts Doctor said to Clara about the 10th Doctor regenerating but choosing to keep the same appearence, hence the reason that he was in fact the 12th Docotor
Ah yes but 10 did have the hand to redirect the changing part of the regen energy, but I guess he still chose to do this.
