Not surprising considering it's more or less CBBC's number one show, but good to hear

Hooray! It's still Doctor Who's best spin off show.

I've still never seen The SJA despite the recent photos of Anjli Mohindra in DWM.
Dennis, Francois, Melba and Smasher are competing to see who can wine and dine Lola Whitecastle and win the contract to write her memoirs. Can Dennis learn how to be charming? Can Francois concentrate on anything else when food is on the table? Will Smasher keep his temper under control?
If only the 28th century didn't keep popping up to get in Dennis's way...

Fabulous. SJS Adventures is well worthy of another few series at least!
If Sladen gets bored of it, perhaps they could get Sophie Aldred in?
Maybe?Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!

Fantastic news about the renewal, although Ian's comment goes to show how wasted it is in its timeslot, it really deserves a much wider audience. Sunday teatime on BBC1 would be sensible.

Perhaps a certain someone wouldn't mind "The Peri Brown Chronicles".
Guest-starring Brian Blessed.For every fail, there is an equal and opposite win.

I don't think that would be suitable for children though...

Interesting revelation from BBC News:
Doctor Who writer Russell T Davies has called for national lottery money to be given to children's programmes. In a speech to Bafta members, Davies said: "They put money into rubbish films, why can't they put money into children's television?"
Davies makes the Sarah Jane Adventures for CBBC but says budget cuts nearly cancelled his show three times.
The third series of the Sarah Jane Adventures was hit by budget constraints. Davies said: "We had to look and say, do we want to make a version of Sarah Jane that's a travesty? It was truly shocking to have a successful show having to face cuts which are that severe" he continued.
The writer pointed out that different BBC departments had pulled together to rustle up the money which the programme needed to continue but that, in general, "children's (TV) is sinking lower and lower down the agenda".
Davies echoed this in his speech by explaining that, after BBC One replaced Neighbours with the Weakest Link his Doctor Who spin-off, the Sarah Jane Adventures was pushed back in the schedule. It then lost 300,000 viewers.

No, but the novels don't count do they?

The novels have had two different fates for Dodo anyway.
The Man In The Velvet Mask has her getting the said infection.
Who Killed Kennedy? has her getting murdered by either agents of the Master, or possibly C19, but not before she gets married to journalist James Stevens, and he seems to manage well enough for several decades afterwards without developing any STDs.
