20 Doctor Who Moments We'll NEVER Forget

7. Reunited With Sarah Jane (School Reunion)

There was an odd moment when Doctor Who came back where older fans took some convincing that it was still the same show, and not a complete reset. All of that changed when the Tenth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith were reunited in School Reunion.

It's hauntingly beautiful, from Sarah laying eyes on the TARDIS, to her standing back as the Tenth Doctor moves quietly into shot. It's an electric scene that not only beautifully captures the idea of picking up exactly where you left off with an old friend, but also bridges the gap between old and new Doctor Who.

The decades just melt away as the Doctor and Sarah are reunited once more in a creepy school. What a triumph.
