After reading one of [[Sarah Jane Smith]]'s books, [[Jo Grant|Jo]] gets in touch with her and discovers they both knew [[the Doctor]]. Together they place a small ad in ''Time Out'' magazine – ''"If you know what [[TARDIS]] means, call this number"'' – to attract the attention of former [[companion]]s. With [[Liz Shaw]] and a less positive [[Tegan]], they wallow in nostalgia with good wine and the company of friends. They reflect that after their travels with the Doctor, they never found another man to live up to the memory. There is a knock on the door – [[Ace]] joins them.

However, this was never mentioned in the Big Finish ''[[Sarah Jane Smith (audio series)|Sarah Jane Smith]]'' audio series, [[TV]]: ''[[School Reunion]]'' or ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]].''

* As this story and [[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor]]'' feature conflicting accounts of first meetings between [[Jo Grant]] and [[Sarah Jane Smith]], whether ''Girls' Night In'' should therefore be classed as "imaginary" is perhaps best left to personal preference.
