    I'm glad to hear that. Shouldn't Jo be around 65 or 70 now? I wonder did she and the welsh Doctor she married get a divorce?

      Katy Manning (Jo) is 60 years old

      Elizabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane) is 62

      I have to admit, Sladen aged a lot better than Manning.

        Liz was much prettier to begin with. I also know that Katy was a smoker so that will age your face especially in the mouth.

        I bet they shot this when Katy was in the UK for a convention and/or doing recordings for Big Finish Audios - she lives in Australia

        I'm all for old companions meeting up but really shouldn't sarah meet up with people she knew in unit like The Brig, Mike Yates, or Benton first

            I read that the Brigadier was actually on Sarah Jane or would be. I never understood why they avoided him on Who.

              That was originally shot for the UK ed of Playboy but it wasn't published there but Girl Illustrated did publish it

                I hope Moffat does bring some older companions back especially if they follow RTD's penchant for stories that occur in current day earth
                all these companions returned to current day earth
                Ian Chesterton
                Dodo Chaplet (well actually I really don't want to see her return)
                Polly
                Ben Jackson
                All Pertwee compatriots in unit

                  I wouldn't say no to either of them. Or both at once...

                    Katy actually doesn't look all that bad in that picture but in real life she looks a lot worse.

                    I seen her doing an interview on a new Doctor Who DVD release and she looked like Carol Channing

                      Do you think there was a Dalek operator in there?
                      I like the way you say "hugging" a Dalek, and nothing more.....

                        If she did return I hope the current doctor would tell her off. I hated her.

                          She sure complained a lot....

                            I liked to look at her but her character was never well used by JNT. I just would rather see visits from older companions over a revist to The Noble family, Martha, or Mickey

                              There's a few Doctor Who companions I really can't stand because they're just plain annoying and Tegan is one of them.

                              Others are Mel and Ace-(sometimes),
