Sky Smith is a fictional character in the British children's science fiction television series The Sarah Jane Adventures, a spin-off of the long-running series Doctor Who, played by Sinead Michael. She appears as a regular in the show's fifth and final series, first appearing in Sky. She is a "Fleshkind" humanoid, bred by her mother Miss Myers as the perfect weapon in their fight against the robotic Metalkind. After her offensive powers are neutralised, Sarah Jane Smith adopts her as her daughter at the end of Sky. In the unfinished episode The Battle of Bannerman Road, it would have been revealed that Sky is the daughter of the Trickster. The episode was never finished or aired due to the sudden death of Elisabeth Sladen, and it is currently unknown what would have happened following the revelation.
Sky Smith first appears in the first story of the fifth and final series, when she was left on Sarah Jane's (Elisabeth Sladen) doorstep as an infant. She was eventually revealed to have been created by a race of human-like aliens as part of their war against the 'Metalkind' who inhabited their binary planet system, capable of generating an electromagnetic blast that would completely destroy herself and the Metalkind. Although Sky completed her growth to become a twelve-year-old girl mere hours after her arrival in Sarah's life, thus leaving her 'primed' as the Metalkind were drawn to Earth after one of them was connected to a nuclear power plant, Clyde Langer (Daniel Anthony) and Rani Chandra (Anjli Mohindra) were able to shut down the reactor, the resulting energy surge essentially 'disarming' Sky and freeing her from her status as a bomb, although she retains some electric-based powers. Back at Sarah Jane's attic, the Shopkeeper (Cyril Nri), who previously appeared in Lost in Time, gives Sky a choice whether to stay or not, and she agrees to stay as Sarah Jane's adopted daughter.
