SJA Series 4 *SPOILERS*

[Chris3123]

The titles for the stories have been revealed. 2 parts each, as per usual:

The Nightmare Man
The Vault of Secrets
Death of the Doctor
The Empty Planet
Lost in Time
Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith


I think we can safely guess which one features the 11th Doctor.


I also noticed that, like in all three previous series, there's a story with Sarah Jane's name in it. All three of the previous ones involved The Trickster trying to get rid of her, so it's probably a safe bet we'll see the same in "Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith".

 

[Starkers]

It would be funny if that wasn't the episode with the Doctor in it

 

[ParticleMan]

It would be funny if that wasn't the episode with the Doctor in it

That's exactly what I was thinking...instead the episode is about the mysterious death of some random podiatrist down the road...

 

[captcalhoun]

i guess we can tell which one's the team's off-world adventure...

 

[Ryan Thomas Riddle]

I love the title "Good Bye, Sarah Jane Smith". For some reason, I've always like titular titles.

 

[Guy Gardener]

I think it's guest starring Elton John.

That guys been whoring his music for rewrites well for the last decade.

 

[Starkers]

Not neccesarily, the empty planet in question could be Earth!

I wonder if Captain Bo (was it?) will be back this year?

 

[wamdue]

it was Tybo, but yeah I would like to see that as well.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I'm inclined to think that "The Empty Planet" is the off world episode, and by extension, the story that features The Doctor. We already know that the story that features Jo and The Doctor is also the story the characters go off world for the first time. I think "Death of the Doctor" is a misdirection.

I'm intrigued by "Goodbye, Sarah Jane." I would be more worried that Sarah Jane would die in that story (particularly because it's at the end of the series and involves The Trickster) if I didn't already know that series 5 has already been commissioned.

Here's why I don't think that's true... RTD has said in interviews that he was excited to write for the Matt Smith Doctor, in SJA. RTD's only story in this season is Death of the Doctor. So that has to mean our new Doctor appears in Death of the Doctor.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Hm, okay. I hadn't heard that we knew the title for RTD's episode.

 

[OmahaStar]

Yep, I thought it was in the first post, but it's not. Here goes:

The Nightmare Man by Joeseph Lidster
The Vault of Secrets by Phil Ford
Death of the Doctor by RTD
The Empty Planet by Gareth Roberts
Lost in Time by Rupert Laight
Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith by Gareth Roberts & Clayton Hickman

 

[Worf2DS9]

I'm still waiting for BBC-K here in Canada to pick up Series 3, featuring the episode with Ten. I think they're rerunning Series 2 again right now.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Yep, I thought it was in the first post, but it's not. Here goes:

The Nightmare Man by Joeseph Lidster
The Vault of Secrets by Phil Ford
Death of the Doctor by RTD
The Empty Planet by Gareth Roberts
Lost in Time by Rupert Laight
Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith by Gareth Roberts & Clayton Hickman

Ah, very well then. Thanks for the info.

Starkers, stop flirting with me. You'll only embarrass yourself.

 

[Starkers]

Wouldn't be the first time...won't be the last

You're not my type anyway...(I could never date anyone who liked the sixth Doctor )

Dissing the Sixth Doctor, AND missing a Firefly quote all at the same time? What are we going to do with you?

And will spanking be involved?

 

[Starkers]

Ah my apologies, I have only ever seen Firefly the once.

I suppose I could ignore the Sixth Doctor stuff...if you were KAren Gillian

 

[Guy Gardener]

So if Karen Gillian looked like the 6th Doctor, it wouldn't be a deal breaker?

Now that's a complete commitment to her innerbeauty.
