Sarah Jane teams up with her old friend Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart as she faces her old enemy Miss – sorry, Mrs Wormwood in not the ‘Revenge of’… No, wait, ‘Enemy of the Bane’ (we can at least get the names right on the blog, if not in the podcast!) We discuss the series so far of The Sarah Jane Adventures, plus faces from the past, the dangers of nostalgia and overloaded finales!
