Bit of advice needed on accelerated possession

Hi there, looking for some advice if possible.
To cut a long story short, I was a joint tenant with a friend on a flat. The flat was sold by the landlord and not long after the sale the new landlord issued a section 21 to leave at the end of October this year.
I informed the landlord that I would leave on time but they would need to speak to the other tenant about their plans. I left the property but the other tenant was unable to move and is still in the property.
The landlord went for accelerated possession, which of course he is entitled to do, but the claim is both of our names. I assume that is because we are joint tenants?
I replied to the form stating that I have already moved out and I have received a court date? Should I go?
The other question I have is in regards to the claim form - the surname and gender is wrong for the other tenant - could this have an impact on the claim?
Any advice would be most appreciated
