The Wedding of Sarah Jane

Finally got around to transferring the episode off the old Sky+, its only been sitting there since New Year's Day! This was the BBCHD repeat, packaged up as a nice feature rather than two individual episodes.

A little walk down memory lane, I almost feel nostalgia from it, which is slightly odd being it is less than a year since original transmission! Maybe it was Sarah with the Doctor again that helped, or even the fact that it was seeing David Tennant as the Doctor again. I haven't really watched any of his episodes since Matt Smith arrived on our screens, and it felt a little off having him there doing his allonsies! It's also strange to think that this was his last venture as the Doctor, too, and having his moment with Sarah Jane at the end still evokes a little tear to the eye! (It'll be interesting to see how the eleventh Doctor fares in Sarah's company in a couple of months).

Its a shame K9 was missing for so much of the previous series, as the repartie between him and Mr Smith is great fun. Also a shame we never got to see his "hover-mode" down the stairs in episode one (cop-out!). More of this next series hopefully!

Spit spat!
