If true that is terribly tragic. Your link is locked to members only. Try this http://primetime.unrealitytv.co.uk/doctor-whos-elisabeth-sladen-has-died/ as an alternative. As yet unconfirmed.

Apologies for the locked post. Confirmed by DWM on Twitter, and now by BBC News.

What?

Is this even true? I see a lot of Tweeting, but no original or confirmed report

[altariel.livejournal.com]

DWM tweeting confirmation, sadly.

Such a shock, even considering of my own recent events. She'd always seemed so young and vibrant. Such a loss to her family, fellow cast and crew members, and millions of fans.

That's very sad. I had no idea she was ill.

*boggles* That's just ... damn. :( Never easy when an icon passes, but at such a young age as well. Sarah-Jane was my favourite companion and I'm very grateful to Liz Sladen for giving us such a wonderful character.

That's terrible news.

I feel really sad about all the kids hearing the news.

This is SO sad.

That's very sad and quite a shock. As recently as the last series of SJA she'd looked so well.

I had no idea she was even ill :-(

She was one of my absolute favourite companions, and it was lovely to see her again in the Sarah Jane Adventures. She still looked fabulous.

Damn....

This is very sad news.

She was so very good in both Doctor Who and the Sarah Jane Adventures.

It's very sad - I'd had no idea she was even ill, although from the reports she'd clearly been fighting cancer for some time. So sad for her husband and her son, and the DW crews and others who worked with her.

Oh how very sad ;-(

[mylefteye.livejournal.com]

I'm really shocked and saddened to read this. I had no idea she was ill.

[altariel.livejournal.com]

Yes, I still feel really sad this morning. I'd no idea she was ill either.

[raspberryfool.livejournal.com]

I heard this on the radio, a sad loss. :-(

So very sad and unexpected. She was working so recently and seemed younger than her actual age.
