Sad news - Lis Sladen
Guess we all had a bit of a tear at hearing the death of Lis Sladen...
Sarah Jane Smith will live on in our hearts, as will the Brigadier... man: what a sad year for Doctor Who fans...
I grew up on Lis Sladen and Doctor Who: seeing her triumphant return in School Reunion and then in the Sarah Jane Adventures was just a delight. Her ageless beauty took us all back to our childhood with her and made it feel as if we too could make time our friend. Proof - if anyone needed it - that the real world will always catch up with us.
Thoughts to all her family, friends and fans, who will feel her loss sharply.

Sad news indeed.
Off topic, but I have a Dylan lyric challenge going that you might care to contribute to.
Lis Sladen arrived in Dr Who around the time my eldest son started watching in the early 70's.
She was wonderful, a true breath of sweet, fresh air on our screens. It was lovely to have her back in new Who and SJA. I will miss her so much. Sad news indeed.
