RIP Elisabeth Sladen

[such_heights]

As many of you will have already seen in the past couple of hours, and now confirmed by the BBC, Elisabeth Sladen, Doctor Who's Sarah Jane Smith, has passed away.

And, jesus, twitter and tumblr are already filling up with pictures and poignant quotes and I can't even deal. She will be so, so missed.

eta: Tribute from the BBC, including RTD and Steven Moffat.
