Hey Mates does anyone know when the new season of torchwood will be starting been checking the bbc site but nothing yet thanks

Hi captsheridan, I too would like to know when the new series of Torchwood will begin. The first series was very good indeeed.

So far as I know its due to start around 12th January 2008

I can confirm also confirm that it is scheduled to premiere at the beginning of January

Thats great! I love this show. It can be...a little cheesy at times, which I always cringe at while watching. Although, as I write this now, I'm thinking to myself "it's a freaking sci-fi, it's MEANT to be like that!". Anyway, Thanks for that date rejexx200, I shall be waiting for S2 :)

cheers mates

ye its airing in january some time no exact date yet however

I think its funny when the American guy uses British pronunciation instead of American with some words

@curious
you mean captain jack? I haven't noticed that. then again.. I don't really have any idea, I'm not sure about the differences in pronunciation anyway

i used to love watching this..it was like a grown up Doctor Who...
i love Captain Jack...i feel really sorry for him though because he lives forever he has to watch the people around him amd the people he loves die.

I should be so sad!
Think of all the extra nice experiences/memories (and the bad I suppose).

@quark; and all the future tv programs to check out!

did u no guys that guy outta bufy is gona be in torchwood series 2. sorry ive forgot his name but he was one of the evil ones

yeah Capt. Jacks a whiner he hasn't even lived that long yet just a little over a hundred and he still has his looks and his continence (and apparently his Bi-Sexuality too)

@aus5543
it would be a little harder for you to notice that since your AU but it's there

yea, In aus obviously we... are "based on" england alot, just because they founded us, i mean who cares, it was like 200 years ago anyway :P but America is more constantly influencing us now, all the pop culture and stuff. We're a very mixed nation

OH NO!! save yourself and your people while there's still time!!

American Influence is absolutely horrid unless you want all you 12 year old daughters to get knocked up while they are engulfed by Fast Food bodily degradation!

You should take your Vegemite sandwiches and Run for the hills!!

1 for the vegemite, I may do that anyway. seriously though. literally, completely true, It's on the news quite regularly now, 12 year olds getting knocked up.

I was walking around town the other day, saw some high schooler (grade 9 or ten probably) with three phones, txting or playing games with one, talking on another and then the third swinging from her neck as she walked along the footpath in heels that she'd obviously kept in her bag until school was finished...

@curious's "OH NO!! save yourself and your people while there's still time!"

Being in Florida we BOTH know idiocracy is coming.
Every chick is pregnant with 3 kids at home, by age 30!!

I have never seen as many pregnant chicks than I have since moving to FL! *chicks referring to young women (often with a "tramp stamp"- tattoo on the small of the back)

it's funny and scary

@baretryst
Where in Florida?

I'm in Ocala.

OOPS had not read updated where are you from yet.
Your just a hop and skip away.

Yes, I always knew that most people were mindless clones created on an assembly line by giant corporate conglomerates...

They all where labels on their backs to prove it:
"Made in USA" with that ever popular butterfly logo...

They are multiplying at alarming rates and are more dangerous than the Replicators, because they all qualify for Social Security!!!

8O

yeahpp... My label/tattoo is a scorpion right above my 'rack'- well that's my most "trampy" tat (although I once considered getting a naked fairy *anime style* spread eagle and masturbating as a true tramp-stamp- but I'm a special kinda girl. (not classy enough to breed I suppose) HA!

and OMG!! Ocala, wow so.. what do you do THERE? *for amusement?

Last time I was in Ocala I got lost in the forest in the middle of the night with a cube of sugar in my belly ;D

@drdubai

you are getting really annoying.

go check your message board.

@jszing
As a moderator can you do anything to stop this idiot (drdubai) continually ruining threads with one word inanities.

:) all i could think of just then was jszing replying with "no". that would've made my day.

I don't think mods can do that though quark, I've seen it mentioned before

one would think so quark but you and i both know what we are talking about. if you get my drift

cheers mate

Late breaking news Captain Jack marries Sarah Jane....
Both great Dr Who spin offs.

I haven't even seen the sarah jane adventures yet. I've only ever heard of it on here.

/kicks Australian tv.

I just started watching it and It's pretty good each episode is only like 30min so they are all 2 part episodes.

this is not show but baretryst My label/tattoo is a bar code back of neck get it ?oh torchwood 2008 ? 2 long

That tattoo was really popular where I live back when Dark Angel was on TV.

i had before that show they took my idea !

aw i see, prison tat?

they are all 58 min shows at least the series was last year have them all down loaded i can upload to torrent guy if you like

Torchwood and Dr who are Approx Hour long shows but Sarah Jane Adventures is half that.

SJA comes on CBBC so my guess is that it's shorter due to the short attention span of kids ;D

sara jane is a 30 min show mate thought you were talking about torchwood

cheers

@NIP

Can anyone confirm what I heard about John Barrowman that he actually does swing the other way?

If so the love angle between Capt Jack and the Policewoman Sarah will ring rather hollow will it not?

army lol

@quark
I'm not catching on to "@NIP". Give up now.

:P

@Nobody in Particular

Simple in't it?

Hey did you know Torchwood is an anagram of Doctor Who, just a useless piece of info lol.

@quark, john barrowman swings both ways.

I thought he was outright gay seems I read something about it or it was a one of those ET shows pam

Oops my mistake john, You're correct.
My apologies to quark too.
crikey its a good job barrowman isn't a member on here or I'd be apologising to him as well.

@rejexx200

How do you know he's not? LOL

You're right.
Torch Wood is an anagram for Doctor Who.

Got it at Wordsmith.org

And yes, the guy that plays Jack Harkness is gay.

Actually that is great info @sebmcc
Something I never noticed but makes sence. It is a great show I am about half way through season one and I love it.

Well the actor is gay.
The character is Polysexual

Well they're all cool with me.
There's nothing wrong with being gay people!!
stop gay and poly bashing and also stop bashing Polly cuz he wants a freakin cracker.

Everyone should allow gays to marry too cuz the more married gays there are the less pathetic faghags we'll see with them instead they'll get a clue and go out and find a straight man who will hopefully convince them to get rid of all there thousands of cats(C'mon already, how many cats do you need!!)

Vote YES for Gays and Gay Marriage
Vote NO for Crazy Cat Lovin' FagHags.

I'm not a gay but I play one on TV's General Hospital(who doesn't X])

@sebmcc

Tell me what are the third and fourth etc., sexes(lol)
I thought humaans only had Two!

@Curiousandroid
Live and let live says this Ferengee.
I don't care about a persons sexuality as long as they are a good customer!

Yes, "humans" have only two sexes, however Jack Harkness was tappin that alien booty too.

sex is a relative term but sex with relatives is Flerm

flerm?

Flerm is such an awesome word isn't it

NO

I much prefer blergh or flargh they have such a nice ring to them

Agreed.

blergh is much better.

Court Adjourned

nah I think that most people prefer Flerm to Blergh mostly because Flerm doesn't sound as gay, but I also took a survey of gay men and women who thought that Flargh was, and I quote: "The Bee's Knees" end quote, Semicolon;, hyphen-, exclamation point! to the power of n

Blergh FTW!

@curiousandroid

Besides everyone knows that 97.6% of all statistics and polls are made up.

@uncertaingod

From which poll did you get that % ?

There's lies, damned lies and then statistics!!

Absolutely right! 86.62% of all statistics and polls are made up.

I'll even say again, 81.1% of all statistics and polls are made up.

@aus5543 & @uncertaingod

As a previous student of Statistics (I do not joke)
I would say that polls are not so much made up as inaccurate with respect to reality.

The samples taken to get the opinions are usually IMHO far too small and do not get a genuine cross section's viewpoint thus distorting the results published.

Thread Topic: Torchwood/101 Made-Up Statistics

Well he won't be bisexual in the show forever, if you don't watch Doctor Who you might not have realised that Captain Jack is also the future "FACE OF BOE"

@jayp23
Is that true about the Face of Boe? would explain some things, you should go and post that in the interesting tv trivia thread that is going on.

Yes captain jack is indeed the face of boe.

didnt you watch doctor who he dies years and years into the future

Will have to watch again, was sick while a few episodes were playing and flaked out a few times, not like I need a good excuse to watch season 3 again, but now I have one, thanks guys

cheers mate

is this show any good?

yes torchwood is just warming up sex or not can`t wait 4 it 2 start in Jan right ? anybody ?

Yes that is what my information is, I really hope so, loved the first series.

Great can`t wait

Big fan as well I hope the info is true

@ NIP

I want more lilting Welsh accents on TV.

So bring it back for the next season ASAP

@Quark
have to agree with you there, and Eve Myles is easy on the eyes as well

SPEAKING OF TORCHWOOD .....

29/3/07: John Barrowman confirms that filming on the second season begins at the end of April (through to November) and a January 2008 broadcast looks likely - with each episode followed by a first look at the next episode straight after on BBC Three.

2/4/07: Episode one to be titled "Fresh Start"? Unconfirmed rumour.

4/4/07: Filming confirmed as beginning on Monday 30th April - with Andy Goddard directing block one (number of episodes unknown) Russell T Davies scripts the series opening, although it's thought this is not part of block one.

4/5/07: ICWales confirms that the production team have spent the last few days filming at the BP Sports and Social Club sports field in Sully.

6/5/07: John Barrowman interviewed in issue 157 of SFX Magazine: ""Things will change about people, about the Hub, characters will grow and develop even more, some people might disappear. I'm being really vague, but a lot of things are going to happen. Things will be different."

22/5/07: Spies on set reveal that season two will see a flashback to Captain Jack's childhood. We'll see Jack's mother and father - as well as an infant version of Jack himself, played by 15 year old Jack Montgomery.

29/5/07: DWSci-Fi interviews John Barrowman about Torchwood season two: "I've just been sent the breakdown for the first few episodes and there's a couple of surprises. I know the storylines for most of the series now, and certain things are going to change. It will be coloured very differently and will bring a lot of the humour back to Captain Jack."

31/5/07: In an interview with Australia's Channel 10 Eve Myles comments: "We%u2019ve just started filming the second series. So at the moment we%u2019ve got 2 story lines to go ahead and one of them I%u2019m not sure how much I%u2019m allowed to speak about it but it involves all the team and they%u2019re incredibly feisty episodes. So there%u2019s a lot of Alien intervention in the second series. I%u2019m filming up until November and then I%u2019ve been offered a film straight after it so that will take me up until February. I haven%u2019t accepted anything yet but that%u2019s in the pipeline - another drama and hopefully six weeks after we start the third series of Torchwood."

AWESOME. Thanks for that rjm1950.

somewhere in the middle of january there is lot more info with spiolers and ep titles on the touchwood lj.

@vgagnon she is more than easy on the eyes she is damn hot very sultry looking just like I love them lol

cheers mates

@captsheridan
I have to agree with you there whole heartedly!!

Hi all started watching this show, I believe it was Quark who recomended it, I have to say I love it I am hooked, thanks for the recomendation!

@captsheridan
I have to agree with you as well, and Captain Jack is sexy as well, liked him in Doctor Who, nice to see he has his own show now.

Torchwood rocks!!

I noticed that sometimes Capt Jack pronounces some words Like the British instead of like an American which is kinda funny

hmm I may have mentioned that b4 in this thread?

I'm with you curious on this one. Torchwood is a great concept and any sci-fi storyline can fit. So hopefully we'll get plenty more.

how much longer ?

@jameshowson see you're bunged up again.

Here's the answer.

02x01 Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang - Jan. 16, 2008 10:00PM PST

Not long now.

bunged?

@jameshowson

A bung is something which is used to seal a hole in a barrel or otherwise.

In the UK can also mean constipation! The bottle is bunging you up!!

HNY

@quark
I think the bottle is a bit more than a bung LOL!

I can't wait for the new season this is a show I found since I have joined this site, I think at Quarks suggestion and I have become hooked!

New Torchwood episodes start Jan 2008

2x02: Sleeper

2x03: To The Last Man

2x04: Meat

2x05: Adam

Torchwood, the award-winning drama created by Doctor Who writer Russell T Davies, bursts back on our screens in mid-January 2008, this time premiering on BBC Two.

And this time it's bigger and bolder with more fun, adventure and excitement for the alien-fighting team...

Captain Jack Harness (John Barrowman), Gwen (Eve Myles), Owen (Burn Gorman), Toshiko (Naoko Mori) and Ianto (Gareth Lloyd-Davies) return as the investigators delving into the alien underworld of modern day Cardiff.

In response to audience demand, younger fans will now have the opportunity of watching a specially edited pre-watershed repeat.

Roly Keating, Controller BBC Two, says: "We're delighted that Torchwood is joining BBC Two.

"We know from the success and popularity of Heroes that there's a growing appetite for smart, high-quality, sci-fi drama on the channel so Torchwood is a perfect fit.

"I'm also pleased to announce that, due to popular demand from families and younger viewers, we will be showing a special pre-watershed repeat so everyone can enjoy the new series."

Making a special guest appearance in the first episode is James Marsters as Captain John. He starred as Spike, the punk-goth vampire in Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel.

Captain John and Captain Jack go way back and have "history".

When he appears through the Rift under Cardiff looking for Captain Jack not only does he disrupt Captain Jack's homecoming but the whole team, city and world are suddenly placed in danger.

The new series promises an exhilarating mixture of adventure, heartbreak, humour and surprise and pushes the team's resolve and friendships as never before.

Firmly rooted in urban life of 21st century Cardiff, Torchwood's investigations into alien activity give the team glimpses of the 51st Century and the First World War.

They encounter alien sleeper cells; save a stranded creature from human exploitation; meet a tragic soldier from the First World War; and encounter a memory thief who exposes long-forgotten secrets among the entire team.

During the run Alan Dale (Ugly Betty, The O.C, Lost and The West Wing) makes a star appearance.

Another familiar face among the special guest stars is Doctor Who's companion Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman) who appears half way through the series.

Richard Briers, Nerys Hughes and Ruth Jones (Gavin And Stacey) also appear in various roles.

Russell T Davies says: "This series pushes the Torchwood team further than ever before. They are joined by some incredible guest stars who are really going to cause waves. It's adventurous, thrilling and packed full of surprises."

Only 16 long days left!!!!!

Can`t wait !!!!!!!!!!!!

Were do you think they will take Torchwood? Do you think Capt. Jack will find love? (boy or girl)

No we can see from other Dr episodes that if he is the face of BO he ends up being a lonely old alien.

Thanks blkhole,
I forgot about the face of bo.
Living forever would suck.

well they did not say he was,just a they called him that? they could do a twist? and the master was dead and maybe not ? maybe he will do a crossover on torchwood ?

For anyone who isn't clear on that Face of Boe and Jack reference this was on "Doctor Who - Last of the Time Lords.":

Capt. Jack tells the Doctor he "used to be a poster boy when [he] was a kid in the Boeshane Peninsula," as "the first one ever to be signed up for the Time Agency ... 'The Face of Boe', they called me."

what i am thinking is that it maybe a plot twist or somthing like that? anyone

Look it up on wikipedia and it has an in-depth summary and explanation on the topic as well as Russell T Davies take on the subject:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_of_Boe

So did Jack mutate into a giant head?
That makes no sense.

Hey James! Why is there a bottle up your ass?!!

Kudos to all who can access BBC for this......
am happy to trade from USA;)

@subserve that is what torrent sites are for you down load them 30 mins after they have aired in U.K.
and watch 30 mins after that

cheers mate

I don't have the room on my HD anymore-
(one of my New Years resolutions)
Streaming for me
Thanks and cheers to you too

@subserve

Then lose some older stuff or archive it to DVD and free up storage space on your comp.

Even better is to archive all vids to External Hard Drive. Then all still available but HD has max space available.

wow-thanks all-as if i didn't know how. again i have a new years resolution-to clean up my HD-got it?
Streaming is best for me-why argue?

@subserve

No argument from me just suggesting a different way in case you hadn't thought of it.

No offense intended.
