Notes

• This was based off a segment from the Tom Baker story “Genesis of the Daleks” when The Doctor stood on a landmine.  This was confirmed by Steven Moffat in behind the scenes info.
• The character of Mundy Flynn was played by Varada Sethu.  She will be a permanent ongoing (second) companion in Series 2/15/41 in 2025.  This character is (as of May 2024) not expected to be related to her character as a companion.
• Features the Anglican Marines, first seen in the Matt Smith story, “The Time of Angels“.
• There’s a reference to Matt Smith’s first episode (The Eleventh Hour) when 15 mentions loving fish fingers & custard.
