Did anyone watch this? It's being broadcast on digital on Sundays and BBC 2 on Wednesdays.

Captain Jack Harkness, the former Time Agent and con man from the 51st century last seen traveling with the Doctor, ventures to early 21st century Cardiff. There, he becomes a member of Torchwood Institute, a renegade criminal investigation group founded by Queen Victoria to battle hostile extraterrestrial and supernatural threats.

Downloaded the first 2 eppys, not bad to be honest, if a little cheesey

more of a PG rating than Dr Who, swearing and shagging involved from the get go.... the pilot episode was ok but all the way thru' it i kept thinking 'Men in Black' but a good effort and worth wasting an hour a week on... unlike 'lost'

[and for the anoraks out there 'torchwood' is an anagram of 'doctor who']

might have watched it if it wasn't for the lead actor. cheesy american whabb

and oh yeah the welsh bird, don't like her either, not cos she's welsh like, cant blame her for that ;]

the 'welshness' is ok, the fact that it's set in Cardiff is quite original...

but the moment Charlotte[the harlot]Church guest stars in it, it's dumped!

Not everything Welsh is related to Charlotte Church you know :\

One of my teachers as a part in episode 9.

Cool, you'll have to point him/her out when its aired. I like how its located in Cardiff, its a place I have never been, it looks quite nice.

Cardiff is shiz.


The people there suck though.

Little fella in the arcade, in last nights episode goes to my school. His older brother is funny.

Did anyone see the two part finale of this? I thought it was rather good and far exceeded my expectations after a few average episodes.

Yeah i watched it last night, not bad at all. That beast thing that sucked the life out of people was fucking cheesy, but as you said, compared to the last few episodes before, it was a lot better

I don't really like the new Dr Whos so that put me off Torchwood..
Then I saw the trailers and decided not to watch it.
Everyone I know who's watched it says it's pretty shit.
So I spend my time picking my nose instead.

I love it I do.

I saw it, pretty good.


Can I just say that no one in Cardiff speaks like that, they've all got this shitty horrible Cardiff accent.

*Kicks HNY out of my mind*.

i liked the finale, but they push the homosexuality thing too much in the series in my opinion.

diggin' it up coz season 2 starts this month folks!

don't have the exact start date (either 16th Jan or 26th Jan depending on whether you read uk or us pages)

could be as good as season 1...


Martha is in this one after being dumped from the main show (Doctor Who) as a fully fledged doctor..

oh yeah, will be on BBC2 (prolly around 10pm)

I love Torchwood.

Me too!

I have seen the US trailer, looks pretty good. All we get is a Torchwood T and the music, they get a decent teaser.

US Trailer

Bring on James Marsters!

I can't wait.
Spike

Spike

Oh yes!

Mark the 16th January on your calendars.

Tonight, bitch

Does anyone know what time?

Probably about 9.
'cos they swear. !

Stoked@ this.

9pm, bitch

And i find this out at 10PM....

Didn't miss much.
I was let down by the first episode.
Hopefully, It'll pick back up.

Let down ? Why exactly ?
Thought it was great. It's got funnier, which is a bonus.

I dunno really.
Just didn't seem as great as the last season episodes were.
But, like I said, it's only the first episode.

Bring on the rest.

There was timetravel in the episode!

Only by a few hours... but still!

I've skated that carpark at the begining. it's shit.

Did you open the rift in time and space?

Do it for me Baby.

well, I was there with Spence, anything could of happened.

Whatever happened to Spence?

I thought this wasn't a bad opener, James Marsters did a good job. And the taster of things to come looked great!

he fell in the rift

as an opening episode it was fine (don't forget that this may be the first time that some ppl have seen Torchwood as it's only now on a 'mainstream' channel)
i love the idea that they've come up with, that a main character (Captain Jack) can generate sexual tension with his staff of both sexes!
the gayness in the show is ok, makes a change to have a bit of a change from the rampant heterosexuality in most other t.v. shows
(i'm fine with gays as long as they don't ram it down my throat )
my only concern is the ongoing fascination with the 'man in a rubber suit' school of special effects, but, hey that's the heritage of Doctor Who.
all in all i thought it was a good start and i'm looking forward to a good season of entertainment....

Second episode made up for it.
props!

Hello ? Is there anyone there ? NO because the phone's don't work.

Fuck. Missed it

When's it repeated?




..Wait! I can bend time, I'll go back to 9:00pm and watch it downstairs (don't wanna run into myself and create a temporal paradox. Hah that'd just be silly!)

I love watching Torchwood and just saying, 'I've been there'

They seem to be using Ianto's character a lot more now, which is a good thing.

Torchwood is so, so good.

Missed the bastard... Anywhere I can watch it?

BBC3 at sometime around half 11, i think ? Not sure. It's repeated at some point, though.
...Oh, how helpful of me.

Yeah on BBC's iplayer, episodes are available for 7 days after they have been aired. Or you can watch it on a Thursday at 7.30pm, its the edited version though.

Edit: It's not up yet, I would imagine it will be up soon.

Ianto is the business

Thanks, going to check for repeats tonight and if not watch it on the I player when its loaded up

I concur, he is definatly better in this season. he seems to be getting quite a few one liners.
