With the 3rd series of Sarah Jane Adventure, the best Doctor Who spinoff to date, on the horizon, 10 hints have been released on the mid-series two-parter entitled "The Doctors Death". Guest starring Matt Smith as the Doctor.

1. Doctors 1, 2, 3, 4, 10 and 11 all make an appearance. - (William Hartnell (63-66), Patrick Troughton (66-69), Jon Pertwee (70-74), Tom Baker (74-81), the much loved David Tennant (05-10) and the current Dotor Mtt Smith).

2. There's mentions of Axons, Azal and Aggedor. (Amonstor contolled by the Master, an evil looking Mr.Tumnus, a giant boar creature).

3. "Smells like roast chicken!" (Yum!!!)

4. The Brigadier is still stranded in Peru, while Liz Shaw is on the Moon. (- The Brigadier is a fan favouite from the classic series and head of U.N.I.T, Liz Shaw, member of U.N.I.T and companion to the 3rd Doctor).

5. That's Groske, not Graske.

A Groske is a blue version of my friend here.

6. The Doctor doesn't have to be white. And he can regenerate more than 12 times - a lot more! (- A non-English Doctor? Could be interesting...)

7. "You look like someone's baked you!" (-praying thats not a racist remark to the previous clue otherwise viewings may take a plunge!)

8. Jo Jones (née Grant) has 7 children and (almost) 13 grandchildren. (Joe Jones formally Grant, previous assistant to the 3rd Doctor aswell as Liz Shaw)

9. The Doctor might never look back, but Sarah Jane has discovered some interesting things using Google. (As we all do :P )

10. "Accelerate the weave!

Well I for one am excited for once at the otherwise dull spin-off.
What are your opinions on some of the clues?

Yeah, even though this show is directed at kids, I still enjoy it (as long as I don't take it seriously). And I can't wait for series 3 to come out on DVD because I have to see the episode with the 10th doctor.

Guys - keep in mind what target audience each show is specifically geared for: 'The Sarah Jane Adventures' are aimed at KIDS (...and it's a HELLUVA lot better than 99.9% of the CRAP coming out on the Disney Channel!), 'Doctor Who' is for the ENTIRE FAMILY, and 'Torchwood' is quite specifically for ADULTS. With that in mind, I feel all three shows hit their marks BRILLIANTLY!

Being from 'across the pond', I feel I can say (with a certain amount of confidence) that a lot of Americans just don't get the 'Doctor Who' universe because it's too... British. For example - sure, most love the slapstick humor of a good Monty Python sketch, but how many actually GET the incredible intelligence BEHIND the jokes? Obviously not a lot of the 'funny' people here. How long has it been since SNL was funny? Can you say 'DECADES'? People like Adam Sandler, Jim Carey, Chris Farley and the lot have made a living off of the same tired stuff little kids pull on the playground when they want attention. "Ooooo, hey everybody! Look at me! Look what I can do!" Pathetic...

It's the same with the good Doctor and his 'Children of Time'. It's the MOST POPULAR and LONGEST RUNNING show on the PLANET, according to the Guiness Book of World Records (sorry 'Star Trek' and 'Star Wars' fans), yet here it's only attracted a niche market. Most Americans can't fathom a hero that ABHORS violence and can save the universe on a weekly basis with his MIND, a (sonic) screwdriver, and the contents of his coat pocket. It's just too... 'weird'.

Most LOVE 'Torchwood' for the action, but couldn't care less about the interpersonal connections shared by the main characters (the 'meat-and-potatoes' of the story). We (the USA), I hate to say, are a country that's been weened on mindless action and violence. And when something REALLY great comes along that doesn't fit in nicely to the American point of view, it's either written off as silly, or 'adapted' to fit American tastes, degrading the original experience ('The Office', 'Life on Mars', 'Eleventh Hour', 'Absolutely Fabulous', etc.). It's a shame, really...

Supposedly RTD is over here developing 'Torchwood' for the American audience. I wish him all the best (I've got my fingers crossed, Mr. Davies!), but I hope and pray that he doesn't take out the essential 'British' (for lack of a better word) qualities in order to appease American majority tastes!

I'm gonna have to check this out with all those DR's coming back. Great article, thanks for the heads up.

I've been watching Dr.Who since I was a kid, I grew up here in Canada with Baker and Pertwee, then gave up on it until Eccleson came on the scene. I think the show is prob. bigger in Canada than the U.S., we seem to really get the British humour here. I know so many who love Python and Benny Hill and a lot of British humour.

TrueBoyWonder - No, I'm not... but I grew up in the States watching everything UK I could on Public Television (the precursor over here to 'BBC America').

Sure, as most detractors of the original series would say, 'The series effects were @#$!', BUT... the QUALITY of the stories and actors were LIGHT-YEARS beyond what was being pumped out of Hollywood at the time! In fact, (if you think about it), MANY ideas were stolen from 'Doctor Who' and transplanted to other series (like 'Star Trek'): 'Borg' (uh, can you say 'Cybermen'? ...and they were introduced DECADES before), the transporter (the 'trans-mat'), dimensional transcendentalism ('Bigger on the inside')? Stolen by the 'Enterprise' series. I could go on...

@ BoyWonder

We like to think we do, lol. I think it has a lot to do with still being tied fairly close to the Queen and such. That, and much of British tv is soooo good. Screw special effects, writing is where it's at. (I get tired of seeing the U.S. remake shows from the U.K., just air the originals.)

They just started airing Being Human here on Space Channel. I managed to catch the first 6 episodes or so, and loved it!

TrueBoyWonder - I was weened on the classic series! Granted, we as Americans were only introduced to 'Doctor Who' through Tom Baker at first so we had no clue what was going on at the start, but it was enojyable none the less. I actually met Doctors #2 through #6 (Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison and Colin Baker), Anthony Ainley (had lunch with him as a 'meet-and-greet) and a TON of companions (I flirted SHAMELESSLY with Louise Jameson, aka 'Leela' - well, as shamelessly as an 8th grader can get... LMAO!) at the Doctor Who conventions 'TARDIS 20 & 21' here in Chicago. It was the BEST time of my life!

I've got mixed emotions with the new series. There were times (especially with Eccleson's interpretation and Tennant's early work) that I thought were spot-on CLASSIC 'Doctor Who'. As the series progressed, it seems to me that science FICTION was replaced with science FANTASY. I had high hopes for Smith & company (what with Steven Moffat taking over RTD's spot), but the 'WTF' moments that seem to plauge the end of Tennant's run are still popping up. I still have hope, or as Peter Davison's Doctor was so fond of saying "Brave heart..." Only time will tell (pun intedended).
