Happy Birthday, Sarah Jane Smith…You are sorely missed.

David Tennant reads for the forward to Elizabeth Sladen’s autobiography. She was my Doctor’s Companion, long before Billie, Freema & Catherine.

Goodbye, Sarah Jane…

Just this evening, Elizabeth Sladen (1948-2011), the actress who played long-time companion of the Doctor known as Sarah Jane Smith, has passed on after a battle with cancer at the age of 63.

There is a good article on her on the Doctor Who wiki.

I don’t know what to say…except to ask, ‘Who will K-9 have now to tell him, “Good Dog?”‘

Goodbye, Sarah Jane, you were my favorite Companion, and the Doctor Who universe will be a much colder place without you.
