Review: The Sarah Jane Adventures 2×3
Do you know, I really can’t think of an introduction to this story that won’t be a spoiler in some way to Americans and people who haven’t seen this episode? So instead of wobbling on for a bit out on the front page, I’m heading off for the protective enclosure of the jump.
Join me if you will.

Last series of The Sarah Jane Adventures posed something of a dilemma. Obviously, being a spin-off of Doctor Who featuring a former Doctor Who companion, comparisons with the mother ship were inevitable. Thing was, the comparison invariably became "Don’t you think The Sarah Jane Adventures is more entertaining, more adult and more consistently higher quality than Doctor Who?" – even though ostensibly it was aimed at six year olds.
Now it’s back, packed with action, continuity references and Sarah Jane fun. So again we have to ask, which one’s better? We also have to ask, can we bear the shame of watching CBBC at our ages?
