BBC confirms future of The Sarah Jane Adventures

The BBC have confirmed that following the death of Elisabeth Sladen, there are no plans to film future episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures.

Earlier today the highly-unreliable tabloid "newspaper" The Sun claimed that the series would continue without Elisabeth's character, Sarah Jane Smith.

However the BBC have released the following statement which quashes the rumor and confirms that the remaining unaired six episodes will be broadcast in tribute to the late actress:

"Contrary to press reports today we can confirm that no new episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures will be filmed following the tragic death of actress Elisabeth Sladen in April, 2011. As a tribute to Elisabeth the six episodes that were recorded with her last year will be broadcast on CBBC at a date to be confirmed."
