He is also responsible for security and scanning the visitors to provide modelling information for the Bubble Shock! scientists developing the Archetype. He is young and somewhat cocky as well as slightly naïve; his training on human culture led him to believe that a male entering a female-use bathroom was an unforgivable taboo of the culture.

".
One of the 98 per cent of the population addicted to the soft drink Bubble Shock!, Kelsey took Maria to see the Bubble Shock! factory, where she became embroiled in Sarah Jane Smith's attempt to fight off the invading aliens, the Bane. However, Kelsey fell under the Bane's control owing to her addiction. When Sarah Jane, Maria and Luke Smith defeated the Bane, Kelsey had reportedly recovered, but was denying the existence of aliens.
She is attracted to the human form of Davey and to Luke and likes Hollyoaks
. She wonders if she is fat, and if she will ever be kissed.
The character was dropped from the series following the "Invasion of the Bane", possibly because she received poor reception from fans, and was replaced by the more easy-going Clyde Langer

in the first series.
, Mrs Wormwood comes to Earth and aids Sarah Jane in finding the Scroll of Horath so that they can stop the Bane from resurrecting Horath. It is eventually revealed however that Mrs Wormwood wants the Scroll for herself. Assisted by the Sontaran Kaagh, she seeks to revive Horath believing that once it takes over the universe she will rule creation at its side. She tells Kaagh that for helping her he will rule the universe with her and Horath but she secretly holds Kaagh in contempt, considering him an "imbecile" and wants Luke whom she looks on as a son to join her saying that he and she will be made gods once Horath takes power. It is later explained that rather than being a life-form in the usual sense, Horath was in fact a cyber-organic being, akin to a supercomputer. It is also revealed that its body was sent to another dimension and the portal is on Earth. Mrs Wormwood attempts to open the gate, crying "the Age of Wormwood approaches" but after she betrays him, Kaagah pushes her into the vortex, falling in with her and overloading the portal which closes, sealing Kaagh and Wormwood in the other dimension with Horath.
Horath's true form was never seen but it is possible that it was of the same ilk as the Great Beast from Doctor Who and the Beast's son, Abaddon who appeared in Torchwood. The Torchwood website alluded to the possibility of other creatures like the Beast and Abaddon sealed on planets throughout the universe so this is quite plausible.
, is Maria Jackson's
father. He is divorced from Maria's mother, Chrissie, and he and Maria are seen moving into Bannerman Road in "Invasion of the Bane
". He works in IT, blocking super-viruses; he once did an IT job in a school, and is capable, in The Lost Boy
, of obtaining an 'Armageddon Virus' that completely wipes out Mr Smith's databanks. He was one of the 98 per cent of the population that became addicted to Bubble Shock! during the Bane's attempted invasion of Earth. He later made a full recovery. Alan and Chrissie appear to still get on when she visits Maria, however Revenge of the Slitheen
indicates there is some tension between them, Maria commenting that they used to argue a lot when the lived together. In the episode Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?
Alan becomes involved in fighting of an alien plot, and thus becomes aware of the existence of extraterrestrial life, Mr Smith
and of his daughter's involvement with aliens. He appeared in all stories of the first series, except for Warriors of Kudlak
. During the Dalek
invasion of Earth in the Doctor Who
episodes "The Stolen Earth
" and "Journey's End
, he was in Cornwall with Maria.
In the first story of the second season, The Last Sontaran
, Alan is offered a job in America
, but is unsure about taking it. At the end of the story he takes the job, and he and Maria leave Bannerman Road. However, the group still call for his computer expertise on occasion; Millson appears as Alan Jackson via webcam in The Mark of the Berserker
, when in Sarah Jane's absence, Luke and Rani
require him to hack into a UNIT
database for critical information. He also subsequently uses UNIT technology to track the location of Clyde Langer and his own skills to get in contact with Sarah Jane.
, is Maria Jackson's
mother first seen in "Invasion of the Bane
". She is divorced from Maria's father, Alan, but seems to have kept his surname. She lives with her (unseen on screen) boyfriend, Ivan, who, unlike her, was one of the 98 per cent of the population that became addicted to Bubble Shock! during the Bane's attempted invasion of Earth. Ivan chased her round their bedroom trying to get her to drink Bubble Shock!, which she interpreted as foreplay
, until her neighbour arrived doing the same. Ivan and her neighbour later made full recoveries. Chrissie and Alan appear to still get on and she regularly visits him and Maria. She and Ivan are getting married. Luke Smith describes her as "rude" when she interrupts his and Sarah Jane Smith's
conversation with Alan and Maria. Chrissie was also the one to inform the police when Luke is discovered to be a "genetic match" of a young boy called Ashley. She also refers to Sarah Jane as "Mary Jane" & "Calamity Jane
"
In the second series story The Last Sontaran
, Chrissie follows Alan to Sarah Jane's house and discovers Mr Smith. She accepts the existence of aliens, and rescues Sarah Jane, Maria, Clyde and Luke from Commander Kaagh by driving her stiletto heel into his probic vent. She loses consciousness and the others try to convince her she was knocked out when her heel snapped. At the end of the episode, as they wave Alan and Maria off, she tells Sarah Jane she remembers what really happened.

's pet robot dog, K-9 Mark IV, voiced by John Leeson
, is away for much of the series' run, sealing a black hole

", Sarah Jane states that he has been away for a hear and a half. His orbit brings him into brief contact with Sarah Jane every so often, as seen in "Invasion of the Bane".
He also plays a major role toward the end of the final episode of Series 1. By exchanging laser fire with Mr Smith, K-9 provides Sarah Jane with the distraction she needs to download the Armageddon Virus into Mr Smith. After this fight, K-9 returns to the black hole.
In the finale of Doctor Who Series 4, "Journey's End
", Sarah Jane calls on K-9 to leave the black hole again to transmit the TARDIS base code to Mr Smith so that the latter can access its navigation system and direct the TARDIS back to the solar system whilst towing the Earth home.
In Series 3, K-9 permantly leaves the black hole because Eve's ship needed to use the black hole's energy, thus closing it. K-9 departs the Smith home again in "The Nightmare Man

) was attached to the Tenth Sontaran Battle Fleet's Special Assault Squad. He was the lone survivor of a failed invasion of Earth (in the Doctor Who episodes "The Sontaran Stratagem
" and "The Poison Sky
") by the Sontarans. When Luke Rattigan (Ryan Sampson
) destroyed the Sontaran flagship Kaagh's space pod was sent off course and crashed down to the planet Earth. Despite damage to the ship and exposure to G-force which might have killed him, injured and scarred on his face and one hand, Kaagh survived. As part of the Special Assault Squad, Kaagh's purpose was to infiltrate deep behind enemy lines in order to predict and anticipate their movements. Kaagh hoped that by doing this he could make up for his fleets failure to conquer Earth. He began to began a covert attempt at destroying Earth and make himself a hero, "Kaagh the Avenger", then "Kaagh the Destroyer". To this end, he used a neural control implant on Professor Nicholas Skinner and his daughter Lucy in The Last Sontaran
, both of whom ran Tycho, a radio telescope nearby. Kaagh planned to use the telescope to bring down Earth's many orbital satellites in a coordinated attack on the planet's nuclear power plants, which would have rendered the planet un-livable. His plan was discovered by Sarah Jane Smith, her son Luke and their friends Clyde Langer and Maria Jackson. Kaagh attempted to kill her and her young friends whom he considered as 'half-forms'. However before his plan could come to effect Kaagh was attacked in his probic vent by Maria's mother, Chrissie Jackson and forced to return home to Sontar in his scout-ship. However Sarah Jane suspected that he would one day return.
He returned working with Mrs Wormwood (Samantha Bond) in series two finale Enemy of the Bane
where they attempt together to get revenge on Sarah Jane and take over the universe. When she betrays him, he retaliates by tackling her into a black hole to which they are both lost.
. He served in his race's military until injuries forced him to retire. In order to gain more troops for his race's continuing war effort, Kudlak was dispatched to Earth. He seized control of the Combat 3000 laser game franchise, which he secretly used to find human children with strong combat skills. These children were teleported to Kudlak's orbiting spaceship and dispatched to fight in his race's war. Kudlak took orders from a battle computer that used the image of a female of his race as an avatar, which he referred to as "Mistress". An error left the computer unable to comprehend the concept of the war ending, so it withheld from Kudlak an announcement of peace from his emperor for over a decade. When this fact was revealed, by intervention of Luke Smith's computer hacking, Kudlak destroyed the computer. He then dedicated his life to finding and returning the already dispatched human children, hoping to gain inner peace by doing so.

Horath the Destroyer
An immortal entity who once ruled over a totalitarian regime known as the Dark Empire that spanned the known universe. Horath was incredibly powerful and was capable of crushing entire planets to dust. Somehow Horath was defeated but it couldn't be destroyed so its consciousness was split from its body and imprisoned in a scroll. Its body was allegedly hidden on Earth. In the series 2 finale, Enemy of the BaneEnemy of the Bane

, Mrs Wormwood comes to Earth and aids Sarah Jane in finding the Scroll of Horath so that they can stop the Bane from resurrecting Horath. It is eventually revealed however that Mrs Wormwood wants the Scroll for herself. Assisted by the Sontaran Kaagh, she seeks to revive Horath believing that once it takes over the universe she will rule creation at its side. She tells Kaagh that for helping her he will rule the universe with her and Horath but she secretly holds Kaagh in contempt, considering him an "imbecile" and wants Luke whom she looks on as a son to join her saying that he and she will be made gods once Horath takes power. It is later explained that rather than being a life-form in the usual sense, Horath was in fact a cyber-organic being, akin to a supercomputer. It is also revealed that its body was sent to another dimension and the portal is on Earth. Mrs Wormwood attempts to open the gate, crying "the Age of Wormwood approaches" but after she betrays him, Kaagah pushes her into the vortex, falling in with her and overloading the portal which closes, sealing Kaagh and Wormwood in the other dimension with Horath.
Horath's true form was never seen but it is possible that it was of the same ilk as the Great Beast from Doctor Who and the Beast's son, Abaddon who appeared in Torchwood. The Torchwood website alluded to the possibility of other creatures like the Beast and Abaddon sealed on planets throughout the universe so this is quite plausible.

He seized control of the Combat 3000 laser game franchise, which he secretly used to find human children with strong combat skills. These children were teleported to Kudlak's orbiting spaceship and dispatched to fight in his race's war. Kudlak took orders from a battle computer that used the image of a female of his race as an avatar, which he referred to as "Mistress". An error left the computer unable to comprehend the concept of the war ending, so it withheld from Kudlak an announcement of peace from his emperor for over a decade. When this fact was revealed, by intervention of Luke Smith's computer hacking, Kudlak destroyed the computer. He then dedicated his life to finding and returning the already dispatched human children, hoping to gain inner peace by doing so.
