‘The Sarah Jane Adventures’: Series 5 scripts to be rewritten?

Posted Filed under

The Sun claim that “once the scripts have been rewritten, it is hoped the show will air this year.”

Lis Sladen passed away last month at the age of 63. Current Doctor Who actor Matt Smith paid tribute to the star, commenting: “Her grace and kindness will stay with me because she had such qualities in abundance and shared them freely.”

The newspaper quotes a source as saying: “Writers will find a way to complete the series without Sarah.”

Update: The Sarah Jane Adventures writer Gareth Roberts has posted the following comment on Twitter regarding The Sun‘s article: “The story in The Sun today re SJA is not true”.

Update: The show’s lead writer Phil Ford has also responded to The Sun‘s article on Twitter: “Dear Editor of The Sun, I think you will find there’s plenty of news out there today without making stuff the fuck up!”
