The Sarah Jane Adventures - Invasion of the Bane

I watched the first episode (pilot?) of The Sarah Jane Adventures on New Years Day.

First things first, it's a kids programme. Having said that, I quite enjoyed it.

The good things:

• It was fast paced, fun and had some special effects.


• Elisabeth Sladen was good as Sarah Jane, still missing The Doctor.


• K9 got a cameo.


• Sarah Jane's car was very cool. (A Morris?)

The bad things:

• One of the child characters was really annoying, hopefully she'll be gone in the full series.


• The story was unoriginal, even including a monster in the roof ala the jagrafess.


• K9 was in a cupboard closing a black hole. WHAT?!

It has potential.
