RAF Scampton originally referred to as "Squadron X", was formed at Scampton in order to carry out the proposed raid, codenamed Operation Chastise.

Turn Left (Doctor Who) and "Turn Left" focused on Donna and Rose. The episode was written by the show's head writer and executive producer, Russell T Davies.

The episode focuses on the scale of deaths without the Doctor; the implicit death toll surprised Davies when he wrote the script. Lead actor David Tennant cited the deaths that surrounded his character as a major part of the Doctor's guilt.
