The Villengard Corporation, based on the planet Villengard, was the biggest weapons manufacturer in recorded history, (TV: Boom [+]Loading...["Boom (TV story)"]) home to the Weapon Factories of Villengard. (TV: Twice Upon a Time [+]Loading...["Twice Upon a Time (TV story)"])
Villengard supplied all sides in all conflicts for two centuries prior to 5087, including the Anglican Marines. (TV: Boom [+]Loading...["Boom (TV story)"])
Among the various products it sold in that century were sonic blasters, (TV: The Empty Child [+]Loading...["The Empty Child (TV story)"]) Villengard smartmines, vacuum drones, and Villengard Automated Ambulance Units. While engaged in combat situations, the Villengard Ambulances were connected to the Villengard Battle Computer and acted under the Villengard algorithm. (TV: Boom [+]Loading...["Boom (TV story)"])
Behind the scenes
- The return of Villengard in TV: Boom [+]Loading...["Boom (TV story)"] is one of many references in that story to past Steven Moffat scripts, as this was Moffat's first script since his showrunner era ended in December 2017.
- This story also introduced a significant change in pronunciation of the word "Villengard", as a result of Ncuti Gatwa's line reading as the Fifteenth Doctor. Originally, Christopher Eccleston's Ninth Doctor stressed the first syllable (so it sounded like VILL-en-gard), whereas Gatwa now began stressing the second syllable (Vil-LÉN-gard). Later, Steven Moffat would comment, "I approve. We all liked it so much we elected to keep it."[1]
