MISTAKES/GOOFS

CONT: Before Martha uses Project Indigo she doesn't have an ear piece. A shot later when she says "bye Jack", she does (and then takes it out).
CHAR: In "The Stolen Earth", a newscaster with an American accent refers to the UN issuing an "edict", which she pronounces with a short E. Americans pronounce edict with a long E.

TRIVIA

Richard Dawkins, who made a guest cameo in this episode, is the husband of Lalla Ward, best known as the second actress to play the Doctor's companion Romana in "Doctor Who" (1963).
The Stolen Earth is the first appearance of Davros since the 1988 serial "Doctor Who" (1963) {Remembrance of the Daleks: Part 4 (#25.4)}. Russell T. Davies postponed Davros' return as he thought that "Davros would dominate the Daleks... like plain robots, instead of the scheming geniuses that they are", and used the previous series to establish the Daleks' individual intelligence.
To portray Davros, Russell T. Davies cast Julian Bleach after his performance as the Ghostmaker in the "Torchwood" (2006) episode "Torchwood" (2006) {From Out of the Rain (#2.10)}.
The word "Osterhagen" can be rearranged to read "Earth's gone".
The episode is a crossover between Doctor Who and its spin-off series "Torchwood" (2006) and "The Sarah Jane Adventures" (2007). Writer Russell T. Davies described the crossover by saying "it's simply doing what kids do in their imaginations ... they would think nothing of having their Dalek toys battling Star Wars droids. Why not have all the factions of the Doctor Who universe going into battle together?".
