The news that Liz had died was breaking news on both the BBC News channel and Sky News

[quote=tiggerpooh;82150044]I was in shock for a few hours after. It took half an hour after I found out before I had to have a 'good' cry.
All in all, it took nearly a week after her death, for it to sink in properly. ![]() wasnt Ace supposed to come back ? |

I love the 4th Doctor but agree with your description of him. The show got its warmth from the companions rather than the Doctor during his period.

I know that, all I'm saying is that I think that by comparison it would have been a bigger mainstream shock headline had 40-something-Tennant passed away early, rather than 60-something-Sladen. If anything that's a tremendous testament to her impact though... her passing was still massive news in spite of her age (even if 65 is still no age to die) and I think that's because she has a massive following from multiple generations in a way perhaps nobody else linked to Doctor Who does (except perhaps Tom Baker). :)

I know its just a minor typo, but I can't help but feel tickled by the idea that once a month male Time Lords are on the blob...

I've no interest in WVA whatsoever, as it's not part of the DW universe.

I still can't believe it's been 5 years. Gone too soon but not forgotten. R.I.P Lis. I still have yet to see a few more classic episodes featuring Sarah Jane. I'll watch them someday in my own time. Right now, I think I'll have another read of the Sarah Jane companion magazine. Quote:
Shame they did that.
I've no interest in WVA whatsoever, as it's not part of the DW universe.As for the scripts you mentioned, I don't think they'll be surfacing in any other form, especially since Russell already denounced the idea of a Sarah Jane comic book. Out of all the three unmade stories, The Battle Of Bannerman Road was the only one that never actually reached script form. |

It's not up to RTD, it would be BBC Worldwide's decision to licence a comic book. However, SJA was not a success in the US so I can't see Titan picking it up.
