The '''Second Series''' of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' featured twelve episodes split among six two-part stories. It was broadcast in the UK in the fall of 2008. The season began with all of the first-season cast (with the exception of [[John Leeson]]'s [[K9 Mark IV|K9]], who did not appear in any regular episodes). A major cast change occurred following the first two-part story, with [[Yasmin Paige]] ([[Maria Jackson]]) leaving the series and being replaced by [[Anjli Mohindra]] as [[Rani Chandra]]. Despite this, references to Maria including flashback footage a photos were incorporated into the other stories, with Paige herself returning for a guest appearance in ''[[The Mark of the Berserker]]''.) | The '''Second Series''' of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' featured twelve episodes split among six two-part stories.
