This is good news!

Matt Smith is to guest star in the new series of The Sarah Jane Adventures, the BBC has announced.

In a special two-part story, The Doctor will be reunited with Sarah Jane (Elisabeth Sladen) and fellow former companion Jo Grant (Katy Manning).

The script has been penned by Russell T Davies, executive producer on Sarah Jane and former Doctor Who showrunner. The episodes will mark the first time that Davies has written for the Eleventh Doctor.

“It’s a fantastic script and I can’t wait to work with another Doctor and hope Matt has fun with us,” said Sladen. “I’ve known Katy for ages and I am delighted to be working with her. I last met her in LA but this time we will be in Cardiff. LA was good but Cardiff is better.”
