Synopsis
Sarah Jane Smith is a truly remarkable woman who inhabits a world of mystery, danger and wonder; a world where aliens are commonplace and the Earth is under constant threat. A world that Maria Jackson, a seemingly ordinary girl, can only dream of – until she moves in next door. Nothing will ever be ordinary again.
Trivia about The Sarah Jane Adventures
Production on the full series began in April 2007.
Two of the five two-part stories were scripted by the special's co-writer Gareth Roberts.
Bad Girls and New Captain Scarlet writer Phil Ford wrote two stories and Phil Gladwin wrote one.
Creator and executive producer Russell T Davies was going to write one story but was forced to drop out due to other work commitments.
At the end of the first series, Abi Grant of The Daily Telegraph wrote: "With the debate about the future of children's TV still rumbling on, this is what the BBC does best, and despite lacking the production values of Doctor Who, it's still top tea-time programming." Daniel Martin of The Guardian described the show as looking very promising and more convincing than another Doctor Who spinoff Torchwood.
