Title: Sarah Jane - Just a Girl?
Creator: chocolatesal
Rating: General Audiences
Length: 3:31 minutes
Creator's Summary: This is just a fun tribute to one of my favourite Doctor Who companions, Sarah Jane Smith.
Characters/Pairings: Sarah Jane Smith
Warnings/Notes: None
Reasons for reccing: No Doubt's song "I'm Just a Girl" is a tribute to women who are sick and tired of being pigeonholed, told they are powerless, and told that they should go through their lives being afraid. Being afraid, and being menaced by monsters, used to be a large part of the job for a Doctor's (female) companion, and Sarah Jane underwent her fair share of those moments, yet she was never pigeonholed, she was never powerless, and while she was indeed sometimes afraid, her fear always held a core of bravery at its heart. Sarah Jane's job may be to be menaced, but she's not going to put up with it -- and the video shows us how, through it all, she manages to stay true to herself. As Sarah herself once put it: "There's nothing 'only' about being a girl!"
