'''''The Man Who Never Was''''' was the final | '''''The Man Who Never Was''''' was the third and final serial of [[Series 5 (SJA)|series 5]] of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. It was written by [[Gareth Roberts]], directed by [[Ashley Way]] and featured [[Elisabeth Sladen]] as [[Sarah Jane Smith]], [[Tommy Knight]] as [[Luke Smith]], [[Daniel Anthony]] as [[Clyde Langer]], [[Anjli Mohindra]] as [[Rani Chandra]], [[Sinead Michael]] as [[Sky Smith]] and [[Alexander Armstrong]] as [[Mr Smith]]. | ||
Sadly, it was the final story of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. It was therefore viewers' farewell to Sarah, Luke, Sky, Mr Smith, Clyde and Rani. After the passing of Elisabeth Sladen, this story became the unexpected series finale as it was the last for which production was sufficiently complete. As such, it was also the final story to feature the behind-the-scenes talents of many other individuals, perhaps most notably [[producer]] [[Brian Minchin]], [[director]] Ashley Way and [[writer]] [[Gareth Roberts]]. | |||
Had the series not been truncated, it would have likely been more notable for containing the first onscreen meeting between Sarah's two adopted children, Luke and Sky. It also significantly enshrined the fan term "[[Clani]]" into the show's narrative and featured a non-[[Sontaran]] role for [[Dan Starkey]]. | Had the series not been truncated, it would have likely been more notable for containing the first onscreen meeting between Sarah's two adopted children, Luke and Sky.
