fajrdrako: ([Doctor Who] - 01)




Elisabeth Sladen died today.

This is such very sad news. I thought she was amazing. She played one of the few roles I can think of, of a woman over sixty - heck, a woman over fifty - who can be the star of her own adventure show without any compunction, and without playing a stereotypical role.

She made me feel good about myself, and made me feel good about aging. And now... she won't ever age any more.

And I won't get to see another episode where she meets up with the Doctor, or with Captain Jack.

We first met the Judoon in the Doctor Who episode "Smith and Jones", and then they turned up again in "The Stolen Earth". What a joy to see them again in The Sarah Jane Adventures - where the humourless Judoon Captain Tybo plays straight man (er, alien) to Rani and Luke's jokes.

But the joy of this story was )

Initially I hadn't planned to watch The Sarah Jane Adventures. I don't much like most kid's shows, and even though Sarah Jane was delightful in "School Reunion" I hadn't much interest. Then I saw a trailer for the show, and thought, "I want to watch that." The mark of a really good trailer.

So I watched it. )
