The Sarah Jane Adventures/Recap/S4/E05 E6 Death of the Doctor: Difference between revisions

They meet up with Jo and Sarah-Jane, who get the [[I Knew It!]] moment they've been waiting for: if the Shansheeth are lying, the Doctor's still alive (high-five!)

 

 

Wait, what? Turns out the Doctor's been trying to lock onto Clyde's residual artron energy so the two of them can swap places across light years. A couple of false starts later, the Eleventh Doctor is introducing his new self to Sarah-Jane and Jo. Jo's a little surprised - she knew he could change his face, but into a baby's? The Doctor quips back that from his point of view, it's like someone baked her. Santiago has to remind everyone that, oh yeah, they still have to worry about the homicidal space vultures.

* [[Crazy Awesome]]: Jo's entire life, according to the Doctor. Things like sailing down the Yangtze River ''in a tea-chest'' are the reason which is even when he tried to find her, even the TARDIS could barely track her down.

* [[Fandom Nod]]

"Five hundred and seven." }}

* [[Fan Fic Magnet]]: The entire final scene, when Sarah Jane mentions looking up other companions. Fans kind of assume that "running an orphanage" or "running a charity" were similar to Sarah Jane's "freelance journalism," a small part of a much bigger (and more extraterrestrial) picture. That scene was ripe for '''SJA'''-like fanfic-spinoffs, with pretty much every single former companion up for grabs.

** The Shansheeth's plan to use time travel to avert death? The Doctor tried this in ''Waters of Mars'' and it oh boy, did ''that'' backfire.

* [[Not Quite Dead]]: The Doctor is fairly displeased with the Shansheeth when he finds out what they have been saying about him.

* [[Painful Transformation]]: When Sarah asks if his last regeneration hurt, the Doctor replies that it always hurts.

* [[Sadistic Choice]]: Karim forces the Doctor to choose between saving Sarah-Jane and Jo, who have been captured by Shansheeth, or the children, who are trapped in a ventilator shaft that is overheating. {{spoiler|He saves the children.}}
