Goodbye Sarah Jane Smith: Elisabeth Sladen 1948-2011

Yesterday, the Whoniverse got the saddest, most unexpected news about the passing of actress Elisabeth Sladen, who died of cancer.

Sladen played one of the most beloved companions in Doctor Who history, investigative reporter Sarah Jane Smith, and went on to work alongside Doctors number Three (John Pertwee) and Four (Tom Baker), as well as later meeting up with Ten (David Tennant) inWho's series 2 episode School Reunion -- which led to getting her own spinoff series, The Sarah Jane Adventures -- and recently with Eleven (Matt Smith) in Death of the Doctor.

The BBC has released a long and heartfelt tribute to Lis Sladen which you can read here.

All I can say is that it's such a shock, and I'm extremely sad about the passing of this lovely woman, who left us all too soon, all too young.

RIP Elisabeth Sladen. You will be missed.

Hilarious Craig Ferguson - The lost "Dr. Who" unaired opening video

This is an unaired opening song-and-dance little number that Craig Ferguson did for all the non Doctor Who fans of his Late, Late show, that was supposed to air on November 16th when Matt Smith guest-starred on the show.

That opening segment wasn't cleared by the BBC and Ferguson was apparently pretty pissed at this. But now, it has finally made it online for all to see. And it's frakin' hilarious!

Enjoy!



Thanks to The Real Rebel for the heads up!
