7 DAYS UNTIL SARAH JANE ADVENTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am very, very excited.
As for "Death of the Doctor," I think I'm even more excited to see that than I was to see "The Big Bang." I hope it's just as good!
In other news, an apparent prop from SJA has shown up in the bookcase of BBC's new series, Sherlock. The prop in question is a book, Teleological Response of the Virus by Lavinia Smith. Lavinia Smith is, of course, the name of Sarah's aunt, and the work in question is mentioned by the Third Doctor in Sarah's first episode, "Time Warrior."
I have a couple of responses:
1) It's way, way cool that this prop book was created for SJA. I haven't ever seen it on the show, but maybe it will show up in this new series? Or maybe it's always been lurking in the background in the attic, and we just haven't noticed it yet.
2) I like that the book has traveled from SJA to Sherlock. In fact, I now want to see it make an appearance on other BBC shows! Because let's face it, every series can be improved by an obscure Doctor Who reference in the set dressing. : )

I'll just say that, I think this is the best trailer (read: it's the one thatgot me most excited) of the ones I've seen and leave it at that.Whether you choose to watch it is up to you.

And oh yes, the rest of the season looks like it will be awesome, too.

This is the first time I'll watch the show as it airs, and this series looks really exciting!

RTD knows his Doctor Who history, so sky's the limit on the references that he might have put in -- from Jo's husband to UNIT and the Brig to the Metebelis crystal to a throwaway joke about Drashigs, it's all possible.
