I kind of feel the same way, but - and I don't know how much they altered the script to make it fit in the WvA universe - I think it was a lot more powerful with Tom and Lexi.

Like who would it have starred if it was kept as a SJA ep? Clyde and Rani? Clyde and Sky? And if they had chosen to do something different, one-off characters wouldn't have had the same impact as series regulars.

So yeah. Overall I'm still really sad that SJA is gone, but DAMN did that episode work as a fully WvA episode.

In Phil Ford's interview with Den of Geek, he says that it was going to be about Clyde and Rani. (And the baby was RTD's idea, naturally.)

OP

Yeeeeahhh...I agree it worked really well with the frenemies...I did really want to see the Clani version. I had five years to get attached to them as opposed to the WvA one, I think of them as 'kids/teens' more than I do Tom/Lexi so it would have been impatful to me to see them grow up, you KNOW they woulda had a kid and names it ater Sarah Jane....

In a perfect world I'd keep the WvA ep AND have them make a SJA novel as well. Bit I imagine with copyrights and such it wouldn't be possible. :(

I really love Clani too, so I would've been happy with either, but yeah. The episode just wouldn't have had that poignancy with them like it did with Tom/Lexi. My head canon is that Clyde and Rani will eventually be together, and failing that, be BFFs forever, the way that Sarah Jane never truly lost touch (and even made new connections) with her fellow companions. So losing one future together would be sad, but not tragic in the way WvA was able to present it.

So yeah... Personally still more connected to Clyde and Rani (like you), but ultimately think the story itself is stronger with Tom and Lexi.
