The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith was notable for the appearance of David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and well known British actor Nigel Havers as Sarah's would-be suitor. It was the first time that the Doctor had appeared in any Doctor Who spin-offs — but the last time David Tennant played the Doctor during his original tenure. It was essentially filmed in the same production block as his final episode of Doctor Who, albeit in a different corner of the Upper Boat Studios.
The Trickster also returned for a third time. It would turn out to be his last appearance on the series, and his only direct confrontation with the Doctor, although he would be obliquely referenced in Turn Left and Torchwood: Miracle Day.
Finding your way around our Sarah Jane Adventures content is super easy. All you have to remember are three little letters: SJA.
SJA was popular enough on the CBBC to spawn its own spin-off called Sarah Jane's Alien Files. Okay, it was mostly a clip show, but there was some original content as well.
SJA is the only part of the BBC Wales Who empire to produce novelisations. An old tradition of the 1963 version of Doctor Who, the tradition was revived for SJA for many of the same reasons Target novelisations had been popular in the 1970s and 1980s: they helped kids learn to read long-form fiction.
The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith was due to feature Nicholas Courtney as the Brigadier, but his ill health prevented him from appearing. The Brig nevertheless does feature in the novelisation, offering a tantalising glimpse of what would have been the character's only televised meeting with a 21st century incarnation of the Doctor.
Did you know that original SJA audiobooks were released every year the programme was on the air? Though most were released in print, the series ended as ebooks.
Since SjA shared much the same crew as Doctor Who, it makes since that our category:SJA crew structure would be pretty similar to that of the parent programme. Wanna find SJA 2D artists? We can do that! And SJA location managers and SJA make-up department and SJA foley editors and … oh, you get the picture.
