Which TARDIS Teams Could Survive BOOM?

Watch your footing.
I rewatched Boom in the end. It was fine. Bit redundant and flowery.

A big finish box set that is just “Boom” four times with different teams. Five and Tegan, Six and Peri, Seven and Ace, Eight and Liv.

[@theonewhowatches869]

I remember one person surmised it as 7 placed the landmine himself to manipulate Ace into staying with him after the last time he betrayed and gaslighted her again.

[@golden_gloo]

If Clara was shot right in front of 12, I'm not sure he could keep his cool to stop it detonating, his "The Doctor is no longer here" speech to Ashildr would do it. Yet at the same time, the Doctor sort of managed to for 4.5 billion years before he let everything out in Hellbent.

[@najawin8348]

Depends on if it's early 12clara or late 12clara imo. In S8 I think he's fine? In S9, uh, the bomb breaks.

[@Meritania]

The 12th Doctor would create a time paradox in destroying Villengard before the 9th Doctor got around to it.

[@Spider8Crak]

I'd like to think that Donna and 10 would be 10 stepping on the mine and Donna starts to panic which makes 10 panic and try to calm her down and they blow up in 2 seconds.

[@mrdr0161]

Or they spend too much time bickering and run out of time. Or Donna would hit his arm for saying something and would make him move and blow up

I know Leela definitely wouldn't have gotten shot because once that girl told her to shoot her, she would have done it without hesitation

[@firetarrasque4667]

On one hand, the War Doctor is absolutely looking for an excuse to die. On the other hand, I don’t think that the *War* Doctor is going to step on a landmine to begin with. He walks in and it’s a nice break from the even worse hellscape of the Time War, somehow.

[@roryaphunter]

12 would stay just calm enough, then Clara would get shot and the whole planet goes boom.

[@tom_4615]

Turlough would just like start throwing stones at the doctor to make sure he blows up

[@kubzania]

Dodo would dance over the landmine prompting Steven to yell at her (umless it's a wilderness years novel in which case the landmine would be sentient and call other landmines towards it and murder Dodo as viscerally as possible)

[@kubzania]

Oh and it would inject her with STD infected blood just because

[@Entertainer13]

The very reasons I love Six and Peri are the very reasons you cited that would get them killed, and I can't argue. lol

[@mrdr0161]

I feel like Peri may just take the chance and detonate the mine by pushing him or something

[@carolinemcgovern4488]

Let's be honest, Ace would probably attempt to use the landmines for her own weapons later.

[@Mothcryptid98]

[@AmberMetallicScorpion]

i'm saying this as 11 being my favourite doctor, but he absolutely would not survive boom. he'd step onto the landmine before going "welp *claps hands* i'm stu-" before dying

[@Dracandre]

13 would somehow manifest the sonic in her hand and somehow just turn off the landmine

[@thepandorica1660]

[@dack]

also no shade to 13, I love her, she's my princess, my queen, my girlypop bestie, love of my life. She was just a little indifferent to her friends and aren't we all sometimes? Juno Dawson pls do more with her

“It’s the first episode of RTD 2 that I liked” THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH, It’s such a return to form. For both Moffat and RTD. Everything thus far before it has a weird triviality to it but boom and 73 yards manage to encapsulate the silly yet serious tone of early new who.

Adding to that. Peri would then survive cause it'd turn out to be a simulation by the Rani to show Peri that the Doctor wouldn't die for her and then Peri would kill 6 with gun but it would turn out the gun was actually a stun gun and then they'd just continue travelling together and bicker and bicker.

[@taekinuru2]

[@Dynamick65]

Boom, the only good ep so far if I'm honest. Ncuti stole the show here! He really felt like THE DOCTOR. Funny, charismatic, cocky, badass, brave, political but also grounded. Perfect mix of character that made him finally feel well-written to me.

[@nightowl8477]

What about the war doctor? Answer: the landmine is sentient and takes pity on him cos he looks so sad and is having a rough time of it

[@SamyulDavis]

In truth, 9 and War probably need assistance the most and do not make it in-time before the companion is killed. If they haven't smelted already, they're goners then.

I think 11 stands way more of a chance so long as River is there- as prone as he is to tantrums, she can usually talk him down

10 and Donna would end up like 10 when he first regenerated and met Jackie. She's panicking, talking 10's ear off while he's trying to get her to shut up 10: _realizes he's on a mine_ "Donna...Donna get back!" Donna: "What'd you mean get back? We just got here, you take me to a dump, and only now tell me to get-" _sees the mine_ "Doctor...what's that" 10: "Donna, I need you to listen to me very carefully and don't panic. It's-" Donna: "Don't panic? Don't panic?! You stand on a bloody mine and you tell me to not panick!" 10: _the bars slowly count up as Donna starts to panic, causing the Doctor to panic_ "Donna, not now. Please, I need you..." Donna: "How the hell do you even end up like that?! Weren't you looking at the ground? We're in a bloody battlefield. Why'd you bring me to a battlefield?! When I signed up to fly about the universe, what made you think I'd want to see a battlefield!" And eventually the mine goes off

[@Leftenant334]

What about the 15th doctor? Would he survive? I think the random musical number that kicks in halfway thought might cause issues for him and Ruby if they were to end up in this situation.

[@nocturne8333]

I would go with: Literally any Doctor wins instantly if River Song is there. Other than that: 1 / Vicki / Barbara / Ian 2 / Jamie / Zoe (they’d have to ignore Jamie) 3 / Jo 4 / Sarah / Harry 7 / Ace 8 / Liv / Helen 10 / Martha 11 / Amy / Rory / River ( I see Amy and River taking charge and being the absolute badasses they are). Also Rory would be helpful. 12 / Clara 12 / Bill / Nardole

Rory would switch places with the Doctor, die as always and then he would show up again sometime later

Dack said what, at least I believe, this was the first RTD2 I liked as well. Plus 73 yards this week. More Davis content soon plz!

[@TheNerdstalgicPodcast]

I liked boom, but for me 73 Yards was the best Episode so far 😀

[@Jedi_Spartan_38]

For Season 1 specifically, I'd agree (although there were elements of The Devil's Chord I liked, such as the full silence sequence ironically but the Maestro felt like a weaker version of The Toymaker which was never scaled down after being dialled up to 11). Personally, I think that Gatwa is one of those actors who always brings the sort of energy to their incarnation that makes me enjoy their appearance regardless of how I feel about the rest of the episode... which is a good thing because a) we're already halfway through the season/series and b) the Next Time trailer for next week's episode doesn't excite me much either.

[@TheNerdstalgicPodcast]

@@Jedi_Spartan_38 im still enjoying this series so far, but the episodes have felt a bit disjointed honestly that some should of been later than others so we have had time to grow emotion for this team, some people have straight away but not me i need more time to grow a connection to them

I think Renegade Doctor and Karvanista would've survived it. She's super cool and Karvanista wouldn't have had any issues shooting the Anglican Marine lady.

Great video

[@najawin8348]

Saw Kalki like you suggested. It's not what I expected from the synopsis. Very enjoyable! But there was a good 30min-hour of stuff there that could be trimmed, not least of which was because it felt so dedicated to standard Bollywood tropes at the expense of a tighter script. And I am once again suggesting people read Kubera omg. It's so good. Hindu/Buddhism inspired take on a heavenly war, complete with time travel.

[@SamyulDavis]

It hangs in the first act forever and the 'to be continued' hit me harder than Dune's. Still unsure how I feel about it, but I'd happily take more 6 hours of that in future years.
