** Series 6 opener [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E1TheImpossibleAstronaut "The Impossible Astronaut"]] ''opens'', rather than ends, with a dedication card to Sarah Jane Smith actress Creator/ElisabethSladen, who died 4 days before the episode's premiere. Opening the episode with the dedication helps in establishing the episode's darker WhamEpisode tone compared to other season openers. BBC Four also reran her final classic serial "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS14E2TheHandOfFear The Hand of Fear]]" in May 2011, a month after her death, with dedications made by the channel's [[ContinuityAnnouncement continuity announcer]]; these dedications can be found on the 2020 Season 14 Blu-Ray box set. A further long-lasting tribute occurred in 2012 with the introduction of companion Clara Oswald who, it was later confirmed, was named in honor of Elisabeth '''Clara''' Sladen.
