Behind the scenes
- Doctor Who: Cybermen dates the late CyberFaction's attack on Space Station W3 to circa 2028. After another failed attack in 2070, the CyberFaction left the solar system and eventually colonised Telos, becoming the CyberTelosians.
- While the synopsis for Salt of the Earth places it in 2028, the text the story says the late 21st century.
