** Late in the story, The Doctor mentions that the hydrogen cells are leaking gas. According to TheOtherWiki, no less a figure than Hugo Eckner, the designer of Zeppelins for Germany, voiced concerns during a visit to R-101's construction site that the gas cells were too close to the structure in R-101 and were at a risk of friction causing the bags to wear thin and leak at the points of contact. Lord Thompson politely ignored the concerns, stating that cushioning would be installed at those points to forestall it.

Further, the whole "spies from Zeppelin" angle probably wouldn't have happened in real life, as representatives from Zeppelin, including Dr. Hugo Eckner, actually were allowed openly to visit the airship while she was under construction.
