More on Sarah Jane, less on K9
by Doc on Sep.28, 2006, under Television
SCI FI Wire has posted more information on The Sarah Jane Adventures. Producer Russell T. Davies insists the upcoming special is “a one-off special, not a pilot,” followed by the full series (set to begin filming in April). Also, K9 will in fact appear in the special, but not in the series due to ownership rights. In Britain, it was common for the writer to own the characters, not the production company – much like how Terry Nation owned the Daleks. Bob Baker owns K9, and according to Davies, “He’s been planning his own spinoff series for K-9 for the past 10-15 years. That series is in development right now with Jetix.”
