Turn Left is the eleventh episode of the fourth series of British
science fiction television series Doctor Who. It was written by
showrunner Russell T Davies and broadcast on BBC One on 21 June
2008.David Tennant only makes a small contribution to this
"Doctor-lite" episode as the Tenth Doctor. The story instead focuses
on the Doctor's companion, Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) and her
encounters with former companion Rose Tyler (Billie Piper). The
episode's narrative focuses on an alternative history where the Doctor
dies during the events of the 2006 Christmas special "The Runaway
Bride". The episode depicts a dystopia caused by the Doctor's death,
leaving Rose to convince Donna to save the world. The beginning and
end of the episode take place in the show's normal continuity, and the
end features a cliffhanger that leads directly into the series finale
"The Stolen Earth".Davies' writing and Tate's performance were
acclaimed, and the episode was praised for its depiction of dystopia
in a scene characterised by the internment of a foreign citizen. The
episode was the fourth-most-watched programme in the week it was
broadcast, with 8.1 million viewers, and the Appreciation Index of the
episode was 88, considered excellent. The episode was one of two
Doctor Who stories in the fourth series to be nominated for a Hugo
Award in the Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form category.
