Speaking of which. The U.S will be getting Torchwood at the same time as the UK. Season 2 premiers on BBC America on Jan 26th. :D

Major rumours about Torchwood's third season

Spoiler:
The only confirmation so far is that the series head writer Chris Chibnall is leaving to helm Law and Order: London, and the series will take Doctor Who's time slot and be "toned down" significantly. Barrowman and most of the cast are rumoured to be departing, leaving only Gwen as the series lead with Martha Jones keeping the connection to DW alive

Mr Frobisher – a civil servant who is hiding a terrible secret
Would that secret be that he is in fact a shape shifting alien known as a Whifferdill and former companion of the doctor who generally prefers to be in the form of a penguin????. :D

I mean I can only just hope that he is indeed my fave Doctor Who companion.

It's about damn time. Seriously. How dare they not have a season of anything Doctor Who related this year?

TheCanadiandrome 07-03-2009 10:21 PM
is this a cross over with Doctor Who? will the Doctor be involved?

Isn't Torchwood a spin off from Dr. Who?

No.

TW is signfiicantly darker than DW and isnt intended for kids. Besides, it's hinted in the "Blair Witch"-esque promos that this as one of those instances where The Doctor is leaving the human race to clean their own mess up...something he's done in the past. There are eras of contemporary human history where he's never shown up to help

No worries Anarky, the third season of The Sarah Jane Adventures is premiering in September, complete with a crossover featuring David Tennant as The Doctor...plus there's a new animated Doctor Who movie, "Dreamland" featuring Tennant.

ok, cool. well it still looks pretty sweet, so i think i'll be watching this for sure. first time for me to watch TW

Amazing...simply amazing. These Five incredible episodes kept the team as victims or at best the very problems the goverment were trying to quell.

Spoiler:
This instalment played all the right cards. Repugnant characters became the heroes of the hour (The Cabinet women, Floor Thirteen), heroic characters reverted to emotional detachment and moralless tactics to save the day (Jack killing his grandson, using him as a weapon to destroy The 456), and sympathetic antagonists became utterly reviled in their cowardly actions (Frobisher killing his family and himself)...a good strong dossier of decision and indecision as reality hit all of them in a different way.

The 456's intent, a chilling combination of pedopheilia and drug addiction (pre-pubescent children's fluids are like heroin to them)...there cant be anything more devious...oh wait, there is...humanity confirming with supplying them with their fix, not to mention Jack's own actions.

Ianto dying was particulary awesome, it was caused completly by Jack being a wise-ass and using one of The Doctor's classic, philsophical-laced "declaration of war" bluffs designed to scare or distract...only for The 456 to call him on it and released a pathogen that killed everyone in the building. Smooth one Jack.

The flash-forward seems reminscent of LOST too...setting up Jack's apperances in the final two David Tennant specials. With a fourth season announced by RTD (it hasnt been confirmed yet), it seems likely it'll explore that six-month period and how the team rebuilds it's numbers.


If you have children..make sure you don't place them anywhere near Captain Jack Harkness
