Goodbye Sarah Jane - Page 2

I only knew her as Sarah Jane; but, that role alone seems to have secured her place in Whistory. Who's going to take care of K-9 now? Perhaps if I dropped the interrogative, I've answered my own question.

Thanks for the notice Mlle Dani.

Bummer about Sarah Jane.

I remember seeing her when she did a guest spot in the first season of the new Who...she didn't look all that good to me then. I remember wondering if it was simply age, or was she ill? I guess now I know. Sad, she was my second-favorite companion.

Heard about it this morning on Five Live.
Russell T Davis was talking about her.
It filtered through my sleepy head that he was talking in the past tense.

I could barely believe it - she was so young.
Turns out she was older than I thought, but still younger than my Mum (my benchmark these days).

I'm so glad the new Who found a place for Sarah Jane.
I know from JB's autobiography that as a long term fan, one of the highlights of his Who experience was getting to work with her.
She was iconic.

Rest Sarah Jane, the journey is complete.

She was my second-favorite companion as well.

I never got to see the Sarah Jane Adventures, they didn't think we needed them on this side of the pond, apparently.

FTR they were children's televison.
I watched a few crossover episodes, but they really were aimed at the under ten year olds. All good fun but not complicated or scary.

I'd have adored them as a child, but pretty much ignored them as an adult.

Just sad she has gone. I didn't even know she was ill.

There was a season or two of Sarah Jane Adventures spread across SciFi and BBC America, but neither one kept it up. It was a fun show.

Sad news.
