From the BF podcast… Big Finish began to look into continuing this series with Sadie Miller, but the BBC refused to let them go any further…

Wait, what?! Why? I haven’t listened to the podcast yet. That seems a bit weird.

I’m surprised they said it tbh (not heard it, just read the roundup) given they haven’t said it for other stuff the BBC have vetoed.

NOO THEY COULD HAVE CONTINUED IT WITH HER. WHYYY. They let other things continue with dead or recasted versions of the characters, why not Doctor Who ('s Sarah Jane Smith series)?

You know how Sam (Sam Jones) was almost in this? Imagine if she was. How much would have changed?

Listening to Smith and Sullivan’s inspired me to start these at last! And while I do like Sarah’s characterisation in Comeback and some of the stuff here, I think it’s waaaaaay too slow. And I kinda hate the music!

But there’s lots of fun & interesting ideas here, and as I said I like Sarah’s characterisation as (justifiably) paranoid and kinda miserable. And Sladen plays this older, more tired, more bitter Sarah so well! I just wish the pacing was a bit better, and the interim music between scenes wasn’t so weird and off-putting :sob: :sob:
