what regeneration? a few common things i see:

the main thing i can suggest is that he needs to be active and involved in the game, especially if there's a metaplot. the doctor is someone who sticks his nose into everything--he'd be all over trying to defeat the bad guys, build solutions, or even just chat up everyone he sees and get to know them. he loves humans. getting him involved in the plot is just as important; it's what he does. there's some leeway because it's probably impossible to play him as everywhere at once, but too often i've seen doctors stick to close cr only or ignore events.

the doctor is endlessly fascinated by humans (and other aliens. and just about everything else.). he's good at reading people and sort of nudging things along, but he's much more reserved about talking about himself. he'll talk, and talk, and talk, but he won't say anything important. maybe a throwaway detail, but he's more likely to change the subject so quickly you don't notice than allow someone to question him about his past.

he does of course have a darker side. he's proven himself capable of doing terrible things. he can lose his temper and it's not pretty. don't play these things up. he's angry and dark when he can't be anything else, but he doesn't want to be. even the "grim and serious" ninth doctor was a goofball most of the time. when he can at all avoid it, he will. likewise, he's very clever and creative and knows a lot. he's not infallible. the doctor's knowledge is encyclopaedic, he can tell you the exact makeup of that chair over there, but he has been wrong and often is (his first guesses often tend to be). there are things he doesn't know. much of the time, his companions act as his emotional intelligence: donna in pompeii, amy and the star whale. he can be wrong, he can miss things, he is not infallible.
