If you've ever read the Torchwood.tv page then you'll be familar with my "25 Questions" - a short (just for fun) quiz I ran before Torchwood aired on BBC Three, where I asked readers to predict certain elements from the forthcoming series.
Well now it's back - only this time the quiz has shifted to "The Sarah Jane Adventures".

4: How many episodes (if any) will K9 appear in?
5: The Bane; will they return?
6: Do you think any "classic series" monsters from Doctor Who will appear?
7: If so, what exactly?

1: What date will the full SJA series premiere? Sometime in June
2: What time slot will the series occupy? 5pm
3: Will the series debut of the CBBC Channel (a la "MIHigh") Probably
4: How many episodes (if any) will K9 appear in? 1 or 2
5: The Bane; will they return? Bound to
6: Do you think any "classic series" monsters from Doctor Who will appear? I hope so
7: If so, what exactly? Sontarans seem a likely choice, but anything SJ was involved with
8: What rating will the first episode achieve? Stratopheric
9: Will Kelsey appear in the full series? I hope not
10: How many "Doctor Who" references will there be? I should think they'll drop a few in each episode to keep the fans happy
11: How many "K9 and Company" references will there be? None I hope
12: Will Sarah-Jane have a romance in the series? I think there will be indications, but nothing definite
13: Will any other characters form a relationship? It's not usual for a kid's show
14: Do you think the series will end on a cliffhanger? Don't they always? If so, what? Impossible to say at this stage
15: How much coverage will DWM give the series? A few articles, reviews of episodes
16: Will there be any novels? I do hope so
17: If so, who will write them? Wonderfully telented people (well we can always hope...)
18: Is "Mister Smith" all that he seems? Not sure
19: Will there be any crossovers with "Doctor Who" / "Torchwood"? There was an oblique reference to Torchwood in the pilot, only noticeable to fans. Can't think they would do anything more than that with an adult show. Doctor Who would be good
20: Finally, will the series be recommissioned for a second season? If the pilot is anything to go by, it better be!
1: What date will the full SJA series premiere?
Assuming Torchwood series two starts in late October and Doctor Who will probably end in July... I think possibly Fri. July 20th
2: What time slot will the series occupy?
The same one as MIHigh - 5pm
3: Will the series debut of the CBBC Channel (a la "MIHigh")
It very well could
4: How many episodes (if any) will K9 appear in?
Either none, or 4ish. Depending on K-9 Adventures being made or not.
5: The Bane; will they return?
Yes... or at least Mrs. Wormwood
6: Do you think any "classic series" monsters from Doctor Who will appear?
Maybe
7: If so, what exactly?
Perhaps the Ice Warriors will be SJA and not Who!
8: What rating will the first episode achieve?
1.9 million - lowish by general standards but great by CBBC standards
9: Will Kelsey appear in the full series?
Unfortunately, yes, there has to be an obligatory "annoying kid".
10: How many "Doctor Who" references will there be?
Loads of really minor ones every week
11: How many "K9 and Company" references will there be?
12, I dunno why the number just jumped at me.
12: Will Sarah-Jane have a romance in the series?
13: Will any other characters form a relationship?
Yes but it will turn sour when the person she likes turns out to be a baddie
14: Do you think the series will end on a cliffhanger? If so, what?
Yes, as to what I have no idea.
15: How much coverage will DWM give the series?
Not a lot, but at least some coverage.
16: Will there be any novels?
Probably, but they'll be lighter than the Doctor Who novels. Aimed at 4-8 year olds instead of 8-12 year olds.
17: If so, who will write them?
Gareth Roberts
18: Is "Mister Smith" all that he seems?
No, he's much more. The website even hints at it.
19: Will there be any crossovers with "Doctor Who" / "Torchwood"?
Not in the first series. Maybe in the second. Unless we get to see a classic character- I'd love to see the Brigadier!
20: Finally, will the series be recommissioned for a second season?
Unfortunately I think there is a 60/40 percent it won't. I hope I'm wrong and the odds are better!!
1: What date will the full SJA series premiere? Sometime in September
2: What time slot will the series occupy? 4.45 - 5.30ish

8: What rating will the first episode achieve? Eek. 1.2 million
9: Will Kelsey appear in the full series? Yeah
10: How many "Doctor Who" references will there be? 4
11: How many "K9 and Company" references will there be? 0

13: Will any other characters form a relationship? Nah, its a younger target market.
14: Do you think the series will end on a cliffhanger? If so, what? No
15: How much coverage will DWM give the series? Lots!
16: Will there be any novels? Again, aimed at a younger reading market, yes. I found a K9 journal in Asda that is quite sweet ... actually, why on Earth didnt i buy it and do a real post? I am such a twit some days.
17: If so, who will write them? I am starting the campaign here and now for my mate Pete Kempshall to do one! He has written for Bernice Summerfield already.
18: Is "Mister Smith" all that he seems? I can safley say no. I have met him after all ;-)
19: Will there be any crossovers with "Doctor Who" / "Torchwood"? DW, possibly, TW no chance. They cant risk actively getting younger viewers, to watch TW
20: Finally, will the series be recommissioned for a second season? Yeah, they have invested a lot of cash to make the studio at Upperboat and cant see them doing that for anything too short term.

9: Will Kelsey appear in the full series? Yes
10: How many "Doctor Who" references will there be? Very few direct, but a few references... maybe one or two "Saxons" along the way too!
11: How many "K9 and Company" references will there be? None, or one at the most!
12: Will Sarah-Jane have a romance in the series? No, just some flirtation.
13: Will any other characters form a relationship? Maria and Luke?
14: Do you think the series will end on a cliffhanger? If so, what? The TARDIS noise, SJS vanishes, leaving Luke, Maria and Kelsey standing in the attack in a dramatic pose... :D
