Beautiful Goodbye

An absolutely heartbreaking, stunning farewell to both Sarah Jane and the actress who played her, the wonderful Elisabeth Sladen.

Arriving on the 9th anniversary of Lis's untimely passing, this is beautifully written and wonderfully acted by a host of familiar faces who are visibly still mourning the loss of their colleague and friend. Scenes were filmed in the actors own homes, obviously, due to the current lockdown situation facing us in 2020.

All of this is overseen by Jacob Dudman who has a lovely rich voice that soothes and guides you through the story.

Like most fans, I found Farewell, Sarah Jane very emotional and cried buckets but it was absolutely the goodbye Sarah Jane needed and the closure that both Sarah Jane Adventures and Doctor Who needed.

Thank you to everyone involved.

Fitting end to an abruptly cancelled series.

Of course, due to Liz's passing, the show ended half way through its 5th series. Years later as this came out (to not disrespect Liz's legacy) - we are presented with the original actors at the funeral of Sarah Jane Smith. An emotional rollercoaster focused purely on characters as they say goodbye and reflect on how Sarah Jane changed their life. Without specifics, this episode offers the emotional punch the series deserved to end on, along with closure on all of the main cast aside from Maria - a gag just about cut it for her. Still, amazing send off. Recommend 10/10

The Sarah Jane Adventures was my childhood so I was so excited when it was announced they were bringing it back for a one off episode and this was just beautiful in every aspect. I always have hoped and still do that we may see some of the characters from SJA appear in the main Doctor Who but if they never do, this is a more than fitting exit for them!
