Cabby, Turbomeca or P&W ?

Proceed to take off and a very loud bang occurs while transiting into forward flight and a/c shakes and twitches.
ATC told a/c returning to stand and a further very loud bang and shudder occurred which made all concerned expect a failure.
I must ask, before or after TDP? I know neither of the engines failed as such, but to stop the take off (rejected before TDP?) and return to stand!
I know I wasn't there, etc etc, but I think I'd rather leave it in situ, than continue flight.
