Episodes 03 & 04 - The Vault of Secrets
- 'Sarah Jane and the gang become reacquainted with Andravax'

Episodes 07 & 08 - The Empty Planet
- 'Its a normal day for Clyde and Rani. Until they realise they are the only people on the Earth.'
- 'This is going to be one of the most memorable episodes of Sarah Jane. It's for all the 6 year olds who've never seen 28 Days Later and The Omega Man.'
- 'As the Story unfolds, it transpires that Clyde and Rani are not quite alone and they soon encounter some formidable robotic adversarys.'
- 'This scrip gave the crew two big challenges - Robots and an empty planet. I saw the rushes and my jaw dropped.'
Episodes 09 & 10 - Lost in Time
- 'It's an old-fashioned historical sci-fi adventure with a Sarah Jane Adventures twist.'
- 'Something's messing up the course of history and our gang have to go back to three different points in time to put it right. Theres a spooky antiques shop. And an even spookier antiques shopkeeper. Oh, and a Parrot.'

- 'Sarah Jane ends up in an empty Victorian house, Rani ends up in the Tower of London and Cylde ends up in 1941 on the beaches of Southern England where a Nazi invasion is taking place.'
- 'The great result though is that we have three -or maybe four - cliffhangers to end Part One. Now thats value for money!'
Episodes 11 & 12 - Goodbye Sarah Jane
- 'The Series comes to a dramatic climax when Sarah Jane finds an unexpected ally when it comes to saving the world. Ruby White, alien investigator, moves in around the corner from Sarah Jane. After all, Ealing is is a hotbed of Strange activity.'
