On today's episode of Sarah Jane.......

Amidst getting excited about the Tardis appearing in the next time trailer, I'd forgotten just how good so many of the elements of that story were.

The performance of the alien girl was superb, lass playing Rani also showed real vulnerability.

Exceptionally good banter between Sarah and Clyde too!

It's the moment we've all been waiting for - yes  David Tennant's appearance in the two part story next week.

His opening words? 'Stop this wedding now!'

The Wedding Of Sarah Jane Smith. The Doctor arrives for the happiest day of his former companion's life as she gets hitched to the mysterious Peter Dalton (Nigel Havers).



Ahh yes, the wedding. Sarah Jane is getting married!



Airs next Thursday and Friday on BBC One, who is the tall guy in white robe in the picture above? Freaky looking fella!

Stunning classic pictures.Clap

Today Sarah Jane's episode The Mad Woman in the Attic of was thrilling!

Welcome back that little robot mutt K9 - this time for good (so they say).

And looks like Mr Smith is none too pleased...


Roll on next week for the Wedding!Clap

How does K9 manage the stairs? Probably uses stair negotiation mode of course!

I think the Doctor has the TARDIS in the wrong gear. It doesn't sound as fluid as normal.

It would have been nice if the Doctor's appearance would have been a secret (imagine hearing the TARDIS and not knowing!).

But let's be honest, the BBC are chasing high ratings (and I don't blame them!) so they had to let people know that the Doctor would be on it!

A good cliff hanger to leave on and also interesting to see what happens next.

Anyway, that was brilliant. Best one so far.

I can confirm that Doctor Who: Waters of Mars will be aired on Sunday November 15 at 7pm on BBC One.

The episode will be followed by two more specials featuring Tennant's final outings as The Doctor before his regeneration and replacement by Matt Smith.

Wedding Part 2.....

Hugely enjoyable episode. I really liked what they did though... this was definately a Sarah-Jane story.

The Doctor was more of a supporting character... and rightly so. Difficult task to achieve but they managed it.

I did feel there was a sadness in which Doctor Who acted in this episode, whether that was a choice or because he was doing his last scenes as the doctor I dont know.

Sarah-Jane (and Peter) saved the day but still... wow! And it seems the Trickster also knows of the impending regeneration.

Brilliant impressive episode, well done BBC!

Are you bored of 'The Waters Of Mars' yet? No? Good. Here are some freshly-released pictures:







By the way, the thing The Doctor and Adelaide are riding there is a robot named Gadget, which is controlled by a young American lad called Roman.

On first sight, The Doctor takes an instant dislike to Gadget, declaring: 'I hate funny robots.'

Needless to say, he has a change of heart when Gadget is on hand to help him escape from a couple of water-spouting freaks!

Apparently Waters of Mars is the scariest episode of Doctor Who to be shown, according to David Tennant himself.

David Tennant's appearance boosted ratings for The Sarah Janes Adventures by around 30% last week.

The Doctor's role in 'The Wedding Of Sarah Jane Smith', which also starred Nigel Havers, managed 1.14m (9.5%) for BBC One at 4.35pm on Friday.

The first half of the story had brought in 1.27m (10.9%).

The previous week's episodes had managed 639k (5.8%) and 778k (7.1%) on Thursday and Friday respectively.Clap

On today's episode of Sarah Jane Adventures......

That was bloody spooky! The way Erasmus kept appearing not just on monitors but behind people was really scary and the nursery scene could have rivalled "The Others" for terror!

This was the story I knew least about so was pleasantly surprised!

Very enjoyable episode, looking forward to part two! Clap

I forgot to say that is it true that some of the scenes set in the house, especially those in the library, very reminiscent of 'Terror of the Zygons' is a 1975 Doctor Who story that featured SJS as companion?

However, episode 2 was less good, and caught up with a technobabble ending.

Erasmus Darkening was a brilliant character. A proper villian! 'Miss Smeeeeeeeeeeth'.

Wonderful Donald Sumpter is always a good actor. Not sure about the actor playing Toby though.

Floella Benjamin! Where has she been all my life? Love her.

It did seem a bit like everyone trapped by the house had died, and I'd have liked a little more detail there. Maybe best not to detail it too much, though, as it is aimed at 8yr olds?

The unseen monster was a great way to capitalise on the reduction in SJA's budget.

Again, they couldn't really show a proper transdimensional monster with slathering jaws on kids telly.
