Regeneration was the the name in the title card of the fourth in the Reconstructions series.
It featured David Bradley playing the First Doctor and not William Hartnell. Reece Shearsmith also portrays the Second Doctor. The initial version was a recreation of the regeneration scene from The Tenth Planet.
An extended version, listed in the DVD as Regenerations, with an added scene with Mark Gatiss as the Third Doctor was released on the An Adventure in Space and Time DVD. Though the titlecard still said Regeneration.
This video was a visual representation of regeneration and not a literal depiction of the events of the first two regenerations.
