We know that Capaldi is the 13th as it that made clear on the Saturday.

Which means to get to Capaldi, if we say that tennants second regen into himself was an actual regen, we need to magic a regen out of something.

That is only if that counted as an actual regeneration.

Also didn't River give the Doctor all her regenerations?
