The Charge of the Light Brigade

A poem featured the lines:

Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell.

While being surrounded by Weevils, Jack Harkness quoted from the poem, starting with the lines:

Weevil to the left of them,
Weevil in front of them.

Owen Harper sarcastically asked whether Jack was quoting Eminem or Chris de Burgh. (PROSE: Slow Decay)

The Twelfth Doctor had read "Charge of the Light Brigade" "about a hundred times," and was surprised to find camels in Crimea as the poem had no mention of them. (AUDIO: The Charge of the Night Brigade)

In the real world, the poem is "The Charge of the Light Brigade", which was written by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. This, however, has not been confirmed within the DWU.
