Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events use sound (explosion/gunshot) to signal danger, creating an emotional throughline of sudden violence disrupting exploration. The Doctor’s immediate question after the gunshot—‘What was that?’—mirrors his earlier reaction to the explosion, reinforcing continuity in his startled response to Dido’s hostile environment.
