Quote:Elisabeth Sladen has passed away at the age of 63.

The actress is best known for portraying Sarah Jane Smith in Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures. The cause of death is not yet clear.

Doctor Who Magazine tweeted: "With great sadness, DWM must report the loss of our beloved Sarah Jane, actress Elisabeth Sladen. The best of best friends. Too, too sad."

Doctor Who writer Paul Cornell said: "Very sorry to hear about Elisabeth Sladen, a great actor, special to everyone of my generation and a whole new one."

Am I the only one that thinks "tweeting" this lowered the impact of the news.

No more so than a mass distribution telegraph wire, or standing on the corner shouting the news.

Gets the news across for those who probably didn't know yet and actively use Twitter. Nothing wrong with that.

Anyway... damn, that was unexpected. :<

No. Nooooooooooooo! Not Sarah Jane Smith! I never got a chance to watch her when she was with the 3rd Doctor, yet I've heard many good things about her in School Reunion. Rest in peace Elisabeth Sladen. Sad
