Boss

Boss is the, um, boss of HQ and the superior of Brick Brannigan and Q.

In the first chapter of The doctor who said no, set in August 2019, Brannigan recalls the time that boss informed him of a visitor to the HQ secret hideout (which resembled a dry cleaners) due to arrive later that day. This was considered strange by both of them, as no one usually visited. This person claimed to be a dry cleaners enthusiast, so boss activated DEFCON 5 and temporarily turned the hideout into an actual dry cleaners, with Brick & Q's help in redecorating.

The visitor soon arrived, and boss discussed with them the sign outside and the visitor's dry cleaning blog. Soon the visitor started stealing credit cards from the communal bowl, and to cut the awkward tension, boss suggested also taking the passports. Boss then bragged that those at HQ were millionaires, due to 4% of Britain's state budget going to 'dry cleaning'. Boss then called the Prime Minister, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson, via the boris-phone to brag that they were friends. When Alex asked what boss planned to spend the six billion pound budget on, boss clarified that it was being saved for birthdays, before the PM ended the phone call.
