The Sarah Jane Adventures Episodes 47 & 48:
Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith

Plot

Sarah Jane is appalled to realise that age seems to be catching up to her. Her memory is becoming unreliable, and she's even started to leave the front door open. Worst of all, she forgets vital equipment when she, Clyde and Rani go to confront a platoon of alien invaders, placing all their lives in danger. Only the intervention of the mysterious Ruby White averts disaster. Soon, Sarah Jane begins to consider retirement, as she comes to see Ruby as her natural successor. But there is more to Sarah Jane's deteriorating mental state -- and Ruby White -- than meets the eye, and it will take the combined forces of Clyde, Rani, Luke, Mr Smith and K-9 to save their mentor.
