| '''TARDIS coral''' was the organic substance of which [[The Doctor's TARDIS]] was composed. The vessels were grown, not built. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Impossible Planet]]'') The interior of the [[Ninth Doctor|Ninth]] and [[Tenth Doctor]]'s [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] had a coral-like appearance; there were several pillars that seemed more like trees or vines than structural support, and a coral like substance around portions of the structure.
| |
| | |
| However, when briefly merged with his tenth incarnation's TARDIS, the Doctor's [[Fifth Doctor|fifth incarnation]] noted that the coral structures could be part of the current TARDIS' "desktop theme." He also suggested that it was worse than the "leopard skin" appearance. ([[DW]]: ''[[Time Crash]]'')
| |
| | |
| The tertiary [[console room]] of [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] had a similar organic rock-like appearance. ([[NA]]: ''[[Nightshade (novel)|Nightshade]]'')
| |
| | |
| TARDIS coral began growing around the [[tribophysical waveform macro-kinetic extrapolator]] after it was integrated with the TARDIS long enough. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Runaway Bride]]'')

| ==Behind the scenes==
| |
| *Part of the [[Bad Wolf Bay]] scene at the end of ([[DW]]: ''[[Journey's End]]'') was removed in which the [[Tenth Doctor|Doctor]] gave the [[Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor]] and [[Rose Tyler|Rose]] a piece of TARDIS coral, and [[Donna Noble|Donna]] told them how to increase the rate of growth by a factor of 59. (This scene was removed due to complicating Rose's departure, but included in the DVD box set.)
| |
| *According to the deleted scene a piece of TARDIS coral, which appeared to be roughly the size of a mouse, would take thousands of years to grow a TARDIS.
| |
| *[[Jack Harkness]] was growing a piece of TARDIS coral of his own on his desk in the [[Torchwood Hub]].
