This was a great start to series 2! Loved that it's a followup to the two parter in series 4 of Who. Very sad Maria is gone : (

A cute and successful little story hosting a surprisingly early exit for Maria - which you’d think was a once in a lifetime role for a young actor. The Sontaran is used well, its purpose being the same as seen in The Sontaran Experiment - except it’s a significantly more exciting story this time round. I will sincerely miss Maria and her hilarious family. Her mum gets to save the day in the end!

Part One

[Attic]

SARAH JANE: I've always loved the night sky. As a child I would lie in bed gazing out of my window, and fall asleep counting the stars, then dream about what might be out there. But I never dreamt that one day I would find out. How could I possibly have imagined everything that I would see? Everything that we would see?
MARIA: The Bane, Slitheen, the Gorgon, the Trickster. When I moved into Bannerman Road, I thought creatures like that were just stories. It's amazing, Sarah Jane.
SARAH JANE: And there's still so much more to discover.

[Control room]

(The scientist in charge of the radio telescope talking to his daughter is wearing the traditional white lab coat, and has a touch of the Alan Rickman about him.)
