Torchwood

[strange_complex]

Seems like pretty good fun so far. Basically just more Doctor Who while Doctor Who itself isn't on. Some of the same failings - like yet another RTD plot based around glowy shit getting into people and taking them over. But, on the whole, good by me. And I think I'm going to get to like Gwen.

So, who reckons the hand in the jar was Doctor #10's from The Christmas Invasion, then?

Edit: and - oh dear - why is it so very valuable to Jack? ;)

Hehehe, that was my thought as well.

The second episode didn't have the most original plot in the world, but it was enjoyable enough, and like you, I'm quite liking Gwen.

ah, I got distracted by Battlestar Galactica. Ah well, I assume it's repeated later in the week?

The Radio Times had a bit on Torchwood, and did suggest that the hand in the jar did belong to a certain doctor...

I heard they advertised it before CBBC, possibly not the best idea.

I suspect that glowy shit is cheap to do. And I'm really trying not to think why the hand is so important to Jack, or at least to believe that it's just because he wants to clone the Doctor and not because of anything else...

Someone I was watching it with pointed out that the actress playing Gwen had been in DrWho before (the Victorian one with the ghosts: she was the maid I think?).

If so, I reckon the glowy shit was a reference to that episode. Or just the special effects people liking glowy shit. Or both :)
