I think that site could perhaps have been better named. It can be quite misleading if you're looking for something else.

Weren't they about to start filming a new SJA series?

Very sad news.

She was the Doctor's assistant when I was a kid, and she made a re-appearance recently with my son being a big Doctor Who fan. He then loved the SJA series as well. An actress and character that has spanned the generation gap between my son and I.

She looked so young and well, I had no idea that she was battling any illness, let alone cancer. Shocking.

RIP.

With the new Doctor Who series starting on Saturday, I would assume they'll have a dedication to her at the end of the episode.

Weren't they about to start filming a new SJA series?

They filmed the first half of it last year and the second half was in pre-production early this year. Not sure if they'd started shooting the second half or not. Was due on TV in the Autumn.
