Sarah's Showdown?

According to reports in today's Daily Star newspaper it looks like Sarah Jane Smith could be heading back to the land of Doctor Who sometime during the show's fourth series. There's details of the apparent return below, so look away now if you're of the spoiler-fearing variety!

DOCTOR Who bosses are set to call back FOUR of the Time Lord’s favourite assistants – including Billie Piper – for a sensational showdown. The old cast members will be reunited to help the Doc fight evil Dalek creator Davros in an explosive finale to the next series.

Leading the way in the line-up will be Billie (Piper) as Rose Tyler along with the rest of the Tyler family; they will hook up with the Tardis traveller’s latest assistants Martha Jones and Donna Noble. Also on hand to help out the Doc will be his old companion Sarah Jane Smith as well as Torchwood boss Captain Jack Harkness. Even the Time Lord’s dog K-9 will make an appearance.

The TV source said: "This is the daddy of all shows. The writer Russell T Davies really wants to pull out all the stops for the finale next year."
+
Whether or not this is actually true remains to be seen. Four companions in one adventure does seem a little too much - all those actor's fees, the budget would be blown before a single scene has been shot! I think it's fair to say that you can take this report with a pinch of salt...

These rumors sounds too good to be true, so for the moment, I'm assuming they are in fact not true. I'd love for this to be scenario to pan out, but if I buy into this now, and it dosn't happen, it could drag down whatever finale they actually have planned for us, which would be a shame.

I can see this happening... Noel Clarke hinted of a return in s4 a while back, there have been Billie rumours floating, and after all, SJ did say to Clyde she hoped to see the Doctor again someday!

With this being the big finale before the year off, and possibly RTDs last finale if he leaves after the specials, it would certainly send the series out with a bang!

Hmm .. I am always sceptical of multi character stuff ... I call it the Shumacher Effect.
Lovely idea but lets see what happens.
