Sarah Jane Adventures-The Complete Fifth and Final Season is now available for the first time on DVD from BBC Warner Home Video. This season is the last season of the series for the untimely and sudden death of its star, Elizabeth Sladen! There are 3 two part adventures before Sladen was taken too ill to the finish out the season. The three stories were “Sky” about an alien child that was given to Sarah to take care of and then “The Curse of Clyde Langer about a curse from an ancient God that brings aliens again to Earth and finally “The Man Who Never Was” about a man who has invented himself as a hologram which is actually run by aliens known as the Skullions that want to take over the Earth! Guest stars on this season are from the story "The Man Who Never Was" with Peter Bowles (To The Manor Born) and James Dreyfus (The Thin Blue Line). The only extra on this set is a short tribute to Elizabeth Sladen called “Goodbye Bannerman Road”. She will be missed. I had the pleasure to meet Elizabeth Sladen at a Who convention back in 1983.
