Elisabeth Sladen better clear her diary, as 48 more episodes of Doctor Who spin-off The Sarah Jane Adventures are commissioned…

Published on Mar 5, 2010

Terrific news from the BBC, as it's confirmed that two further series of The Sarah Jane Adventures have been commissioned. Each series will consist of 24 episodes, and will see Elisabeth Sladen in the title role as usual, alongside Tommy Knight, David Anthony and Anjli Mohindra.

The fourth series will kick off in the autumn, and filming on it is set to start in Cardiff in the month ahead. Russell T Davies may have departed Doctor Who, but he remains as executive producer here, working alongside Nikki Wilson and Brian Minchin.

The next series, we're promised, will see the show visit an alien world for the first time, and the BBC press release also promises The Nightmare Man and the Shansheeth amongst its enemies.

Series five meanwhile will be produced next year, for transmission in Autumn 2011. Marvellous, marvellous news...

Great News. TSJA just keeps going from strength to strength. My 13 year old neice told me to watch it about a year ago and I was hooked. No WAy is this just a kids show - the acting is good - storylines excellant, thoughtful and sometime poignient and sometimes touching (e.g. The temptation of sarah jane) In many ways as good as TW and Who IMHO. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS!!!

Now if they can only work out a way to bring back David Tennant as the Doctor and my joy will be complete. Great news.
