SJA: The Nightmare Man Review + The Future of Doctor Who...

About this episode

The episode reviews 'The Nightmare Man' from The Sarah Jane Adventures and speculates on the future of Doctor Who.

Just like that it's time for another The Sarah Jane Adventures review! We're kicking off series 4 with The Nightmare man. Also, we take a dive into a little more Doctor Who Xmas special speculation, have David Tennant and Billie Piper's returns been seemingly confirmed? And Aidan's been making enemies on Twitter. The Sarah Jane Adventures is a British science fiction television programme produced by BBC Cymru Wales for CBBC, created by Russell T Davies, and starring Elisabeth Sladen. The programme is a spin-off of the long-running BBC science fiction programme Doctor Who, and the second primarily targeted towards children after Totally Doctor Who. It focuses on the adventures of Sarah Jane Smith, an investigative journalist living in Ealing, London, who, as a young woman, had numerous adventures across time and space with the Doctor. The show ran for five years until Sladen's death in 2011. Enjoyed the show?
