The Sarah Jane Adventures: The Fifth Series DVD Confirmed

It's still hard to believe that the incredibly talented actress Elisabeth Sladen, who played the Doctor Who companion Sarah-Jane Smith in the 70s and 80s, passed away over half a year ago now, but we will soon have more work to remember her by in stores. 2Entertain have confirmed that they will distribute The Sarah Jane Adventures: The Fifth Series, a compilation of the remaining three aired stories that would have comprised the first half of Series Five had Sladen not succumbed to her cancer in a scheduled break from filming. The three stories are Sky, a nice opener introducing Sarah-Jane's new friend Sky into her family, The Curse of Clyde Langer, one of the show's best efforts that places Clyde at its forefront and investigates homelessness, and The Man Who Never Was, a predictable but poignant closure to this wonderful programme. Special features have yet to be confirmed, but with any luck we may get another classic Who story as a tribute to Sladen like we did with Pyramids Of Mars in The Complete Fourth Series boxset. The Sarah Jane Adventures: The Fifth Series hits DVD and Blu-Ray on February 6th, 2012.
