Template:Pre-broadcast spoiler The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith is the third story in The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 3. This episode includes an appearance by David Tennant as the Doctor, the first time new footage of the Doctor has been included in any of the spin-off series.






Synopsis

Sarah Jane is acting very suspiciously. When Luke, Clyde and Rani investigate, with the help of Mr Smith and K-9, they discover something unexpected  Sarah Jane has a boyfriend and she's going to marry him! Of course, in Sarah Jane’s life, things are not always as they seem and some very special wedding guests ensure this is one day she will never forget!

Sarah Jane has met Peter Dalton and wants him to become part of her life; to become a father to Luke perhaps. But Clyde thinks Peter is hiding a secret or two of his own, especially when he and Rani find an empty house where Peter says his home should be… HE IS THE TRICKSTER!

Story Notes

  • This will be first episode of any Doctor Who spin off to feature the Doctor himself in new footage. He previously appeared as a flashback clip in Series 2.
  • This marks the third apperance for The Trickster, the first two being in SJA: Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane? and SJA: The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith. The Trickster was also involved in (but did not appear in) the events of DW: Turn Left.
  • Production of this story occurred after the filming of DW: The End of Time, making this David Tennant's final (for now) work as the Doctor.[2]
  • Clyde and Rani will meet the Doctor for the first time along with Luke meeting the Doctor in person for the first time (Having seen him via subwave network in The Stolen Earth and Mr Smith in Journey's End

Myths

  • When the Doctor first hears Rani's name, he will initially believe her to be the Time Lady Rani. This is highly improbable, he may recall a link to The Rani or the character may be referenced but it is highly unlikely he will believe Rani to be the Time Lady.
  • There are rumours of the Brigadier attending Sarah Jane's wedding, however Nicholas Courtney has not been seen on set (though no set photos exist currently) nor has the BBC announced his appearance or even the inclusion of Courtney, suggesting that this will not occur. Nicholas Courtney sadly suffered a stroke around the time and was unable to film. He was upset not to have met the David Tennant for the planned Doctor/ Brig reunion. Luckily Courtney has made a recovery.
  • Nigel Havers will play Sarah Jane's boyfriend called Peter Dalton and he is really an alien. Havers features on the cover of the novelisation and presumably will play her boyfriend. The name Peter Dalton was confirmed by a BBC Synopsis and Havers said in a recent interview he would play an alien but didn't go into details
  • Maria will return as a guest at the wedding
  • Luke, Rani and Clyde will get a look at the inside of the TARDIS
