'''''K-9 and Company''''' was a proposed television series in the early 1980s which was intended to be a spinoff of ''Doctor Who''. Ultimately, however, only a single pilot episode was produced, which aired on [[BBC One]] as a holiday special in 1981.

'''''K9 and Company''''' was a proposed television series in the early 1980s. It was intended as a [[Doctor Who spin-offs|spin-off]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. Ultimately only a single pilot episode was produced. It aired on [[BBC1]] as a Christmas special in 1981.


The series was to have starred [[Elisabeth Sladen]] reprising her role as [[Third Doctor|Third]]- and [[Fourth Doctor]]-companion [[Sarah Jane Smith]], with [[John Leeson]] returning as the voice of [[K-9]], or to be more precise, [[K-9 Mark III]].

Despite the fact that the pilot did not result in a series, the ''K-9 and Company'' concept has had a lasting impact on the character of Sarah Jane and the Who franchise.

== Overview ==
The pilot episode was titled ''[[A Girl's Best Friend (TV story)|A Girl's Best Friend]]''. It was broadcast on [[28 December (releases)|28 December]] [[1981 (releases)|1981]]. In it, Sarah Jane gained a companion/assistant of her own, her aunt's ward [[Brendan Richards]], played by [[Ian Sears]]. Brendan was studying computers and additional maths at school among other subjects.

In the episode, Sarah Jane gained a companion/assistant of her own, her aunt's ward [[Brendan Richards]], played by [[Ian Sears]]. Brendan was studying computers and additional maths at school among other subjects.
The pilot episode saw Sarah discovering a boxed K9 Mark III, a gift from the Doctor. The plot which followed involved a strange mixture of [[occult]] spookery and mundanity, with robed pagans chanting "[[Hecate]]!" and the supposed goddess being revealed as a person in a mask. The action occurred in early to mid-[[December]], the last scene on [[25 December (releases)|Christmas Day]]. As a result, ''A Girl's Best Friend'' is the first Christmas-themed ''Doctor Who'' universe special (as opposed to a regular episode, such as "The Feast of Steven" in ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]''), predating by a quarter-century the tradition followed by the revived ''Doctor Who'' series.

The plot which followed involved a strange mixture of [[occult]] spookery and mundanity, with robed pagans chanting "[[Hecate]]!" and the supposed goddess revealed as a human in a mask.

As a result, ''A Girl's Best Friend'' is the first holiday-themed ''Doctor Who''-franchise special (as opposed to regular episode), thus predating the tradition followed by the later revived ''Doctor Who'' series by a quarter-century.
Many ''Doctor Who'' fans remember it most clearly for its electronic theme music, composed by long-term ''Doctor Who'' enthusiast and record producer [[Ian Levine]]. Both the theme music and title sequence have been ridiculed. Levine, who was also the unofficial continuity consultant for ''Doctor Who'' in the 1980s, said in an interview with ''Dreamwatch Bulletin'' that the music was intended to be an orchestral score, but was instead arranged directly from his electronic demonstration arrangement by [[Peter Howell]] (who also arranged the 1980s version of the [[Doctor Who theme|''Doctor Who'' theme]]) without Levine's knowledge. In an interview included on the DVD release, John Leeson jokes about being hired to come to the recording studio and being asked to simply repeat the name "K9" several times. This later was edited into the theme music, allowing K9 to "sing" his own theme song!

The viewing figures for the pilot were very strong, but due to a changeover in channel controllers at BBC One, a series was not made. Although previously approved by controller [[Bill Cotton]], new controller [[Alan Hart]] disliked the idea.


==Story Notes==
== Aftermath ==
*K-9 is referred to as "Mark III" in this story because he is actually the third robot dog owned by the Fourth Doctor. As chronicled in the main series, [[K-9 Mark I|the first K-9]] chose to stay with [[Leela]] on [[Gallifrey]] at the end of ''[[The Invasion of Time]]'', while [[K-9 Mark II]] was forced to stay with [[Romana II|Romana]] in [[E-Space]] at the end of ''[[Warriors' Gate]]'' due to being damaged by time winds.
Despite the fact that a full series was never commissioned, the concept of ''K9 and Company'' was acknowledged within ''Doctor Who'' itself as part of the show's continuity. In the 1983 anniversary special ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'', which featured appearances by many past companions, Sarah Jane makes her entrance accompanied by K9 Mark III (the presence of whom is not explained for the benefit of those unfamiliar with the spinoff). Decades later, ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'' again features Sarah and K9 Mark III, who was replaced with [[K9 Mark IV]] at the end of the episode. This in turn was followed by another attempt at a spin-off series, this time successful: ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' (which had four full seasons and a short fifth season due to star Elisabeth Sladen's death). While K9 Mark IV was on ''The Sarah Jane Adventures'', K9 would later have a (non-BBC) [[K9 (TV series)|spin-off]] of his own with the [[K9 Mark I|original K9]] returning in a [[K9 Mark 2|new form]].
*The story features ''[[The Army Game]]'' actor [[Bill Fraser]] as [[Bill Pollock]], who had also recently appeared with [[Tom Baker]] and K-9 Mark II in the ''Doctor Who'' story ''[[Meglos (TV story)|Meglos]]''.
*The original outline by [[John Nathan-Turner]] proposed that K-9 Mark III was in fact sent by and under the control of [[the Master]], but this element never made it to the screen.
*There is some significance in the names writer Terence Dudley gave his characters. One couple is named Baker, the name of [[Fourth Doctor]] actor Tom Baker. Brendan shares his name with the school in Dudley's later Doctor Who story ''[[Mawdryn Undead]]''.
*Sarah Jane's Aunt Lavinia was played by [[Mary Wimbush]], the voice of Julia Pargetter in BBC Radio 4's soap opera ''The Archers'' and Bertie Wooster's long-suffering Aunt Agatha in ''Jeeves and Wooster''. She later starred in [[Russell T Davies]]' children's drama ''Century Falls''. Aunt Lavinia had been mentioned since Sarah's debut story in ''Doctor Who'' (''[[The Time Warrior]]''), but had never appeared on screen.
*Ian Sears, who played Brendan, carried on acting throughout the [[1980]]s and later became a director, producer, writer, and film editor.
*Peter is seen polishing his crash helmet with Mr. Sheen, a proprietary brand of furniture polish often used by motorcyclists. This is an unusual example of a product's brand name being visible in a BBC drama.
*There appears to be a continuity error in a section where Sarah and K-9 go out to look for Brendan in Sarah's car. Sarah leaves her aunt's house when it is dark and arrives at the Church in the dark, but the intervening driving scene is in daylight.

K9 and Company was a proposed television series in the early 1980s. It was intended as a spin-off of Doctor Who. Ultimately only a single pilot episode was produced. It aired on BBC1 as a Christmas special in 1981.

The series was to have starred Elisabeth Sladen reprising her role as Third and Fourth Doctor-companion Sarah Jane Smith, with John Leeson returning as the voice of K9 or to be more precise, K9 Mark III.

The pilot episode was produced by then-Doctor Who producer, John Nathan-Turner, and is significant for being the first televised spinoff of Doctor Who. It is the precursor to The Sarah Jane Adventures.

Although the pilot did not result in a series, K9 and Company has had a lasting impact on the character of Sarah Jane and the Who franchise. Most significantly, it offered insight into her family history, aspects of which have been used to build her post-TARDIS life in stories across all media. Most Doctor-less Sarah Jane fiction written after 1981 — like The Sarah Jane Adventures and the Big Finish Productions Sarah Jane audios, as well as the 2006 Doctor Who episode School Reunion — use elements first seen in K9 and Company to inform their presentation of the character.

Overview[[edit] | [edit source]]

The pilot episode was titled A Girl's Best Friend. It was broadcast on 28 December 1981. In it, Sarah Jane gained a companion/assistant of her own, her aunt's ward Brendan Richards, played by Ian Sears. Brendan was studying computers and additional maths at school among other subjects.

The pilot episode saw Sarah discovering a boxed K9 Mark III, a gift from the Doctor. The plot which followed involved a strange mixture of occult spookery and mundanity, with robed pagans chanting "Hecate!" and the supposed goddess being revealed as a person in a mask. The action occurred in early to mid-December, the last scene on Christmas Day. As a result, A Girl's Best Friend is the first Christmas-themed Doctor Who universe special (as opposed to a regular episode, such as "The Feast of Steven" in The Daleks' Master Plan), predating by a quarter-century the tradition followed by the revived Doctor Who series.

Many Doctor Who fans remember it most clearly for its electronic theme music, composed by long-term Doctor Who enthusiast and record producer Ian Levine. Both the theme music and title sequence have been ridiculed.

The viewing figures for the pilot were very strong, but due to a changeover in channel controllers at BBC One, a series was not made. Although previously approved by controller Bill Cotton, new controller Alan Hart disliked the idea.

Aftermath[[edit] | [edit source]]

Despite the fact that a full series was never commissioned, the concept of K9 and Company was acknowledged within Doctor Who itself as part of the show's continuity. In the 1983 anniversary special The Five Doctors, which featured appearances by many past companions, Sarah Jane makes her entrance accompanied by K9 Mark III (the presence of whom is not explained for the benefit of those unfamiliar with the spinoff). Decades later, School Reunion again features Sarah and K9 Mark III, who was replaced with K9 Mark IV at the end of the episode. This in turn was followed by another attempt at a spin-off series, this time successful: The Sarah Jane Adventures (which had four full seasons and a short fifth season due to star Elisabeth Sladen's death). While K9 Mark IV was on The Sarah Jane Adventures, K9 would later have a (non-BBC) spin-off of his own with the original K9 returning in a new form.

The Doctor Who franchise would not attempt another TV spinoff until Torchwood in 2006.

Other media[[edit] | [edit source]]

The pilot episode was novelised in the late 1980s as the last in the Target Books series called The Companions of Doctor Who.

The adventures of Sarah Jane would later continue in audio form as the Sarah Jane Smith audio series made by Big Finish Productions in the early 2000s. Although this series did not include K9 (apart from a quick reference in Comeback to him being irreparably broken down and kept in a box, a situation which carried over into School Reunion) it did reference continuity elements from A Girl's Best Friend and John Leeson would reprise the role as K9 for several other Big Finish productions.

There was also a K9 Annual dated 1983 which contained short stories depicting further adventures of Sarah Jane, K9, Brendan, and Aunt Lavinia.

K9 and Co theme music record.

In 1982, a record was released in the United Kingdom with an A side of the theme music and a B side track called "Shana the Star Dancer" by Phil Wells. In 1983, it was released in the United States with the same A side, but a B side entitled "The Leisure Hive".[1]

In 1988, It's Bigger on the Inside!, a collection of original comics and other comedic features created by Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett, contained a one-page comic story simply entitled K9 and Company.

  • John Nathan-Turner's initial story document for K9 and Company, specifically the planned pilot "One Girl and Her Dog", included a revelation that K9 Mark III was really under the control of The Master.
