p858snake Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 First episode as in the first season or the second season? another channel (Decent one this time, ABC, they also have Dr Who) just got the rights to it in Australia and are playing from the very start because the other channel just kept changing time slots and dropped it without showing the whole season.

russdev Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 http://www.uktv.com.au/torchwood/ Only by a day we had first ep last night you may have just missed first ep as think it is about 10 at night there From Australian Press Pack Day 1 – Tuesday July 7 at 8:30pm Captain Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones return for a new adventure in Torchwood: Children Of Earth, a five‐part series for BBC One, fast‐tracked to UKTV. An ordinary day becomes one of terror, as every single child in the world stops. A message is sent to all the governments of Earth: "We are coming." But, as a trap closes around Captain Jack, the sins of the past are returning and long‐forgotten events from 1965 threaten to reveal an awful truth. Torchwood is forced underground as the government takes swift and brutal action. As members of the team are hunted down, Britain risks becoming a rogue state. Meanwhile, the mysterious and powerful 456 draws ever‐closer. Captain Jack, Gwen and Ianto are helpless as events escalate to such a degree that mankind faces the end of civilisation itself.
p858snake Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 UKTV >> TORCHWOOD CHILDREN OF EARTH Only by a day we had first ep last night you may have just missed first ep as think it is about 10 at night there From Australian Press Pack UKTV:AU is a pay tv channel which means I won't be getting it, i still need to watch the other seasons first anyway.
alan-d Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I watched it and wondered if coming to work today to a school full of kids would be a good idea! I'll be watching it tonight though!
russdev Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 arr I see sorry wasn't aware well look on the net I am sure it is up by know.. Russ
LeMarchand Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I'm amazed that someone hasn't commented on the Civil Service's rubbish idea of a secure password! I was generally (surprisingly) impressed, but I'd be amazed if Captain Jack doesn't survive. Hitherto unmentioned local teleport device has 'ported the device out of him?

russdev Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 Thats a point never thought of that has to for it continue think the preview made it obvious he does. Russ
LeMarchand Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 think the preview made it obvious he does. Russ Call us sad, but Mme LeMarchand and I quickly turn the sound down and avert our eyes when "next time on..." comes up. We know when we want to watch the next ep of any given show, and don't want any spoilers. (But still want to see the credits, which I wish they'd show before the preview).
JJonas Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 quote from [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_of_Boe]Face of Boe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame] Possible origin In the episode "Last of the Time Lords", the immortal time traveller Captain Jack Harkness expresses concern about how he might look if he lives "for a million years", because although he can't die, he is still aging, albeit slowly. He tells the Doctor and Martha Jones that it's a matter of vanity, because 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," earning him the name "the Face of Boe". This astonishes Martha and the skeptical Doctor. Writer Russell T Davies, in the episode's commentary, called the implication of this scene "a theory" as to the Face of Boe's origins, prompting Executive Producer Julie Gardner to urge him to "stop back-pedalling" about the two characters being the same. Davies also said that after writing the scene he inserted a line in the ADR recording for "Gridlock" in which the Face of Boe calls the Doctor "old friend".[1] Gardner also stated outright at the 2008 San Diego Comic Con that the Face of Boe was Jack Harkness. Similarly, Torchwood Declassified for Torchwood Series 2 has John Barrowman, David Tennant, and Russell T Davies explicitly stating that the Face of Boe is Jack Harkness.
sparkeh Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Cracking episode - the bit where Jack gets shot in the back was a really shocking moment
Fuzzz Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Does anyone know when season 5 of Doctor Who starts (on BBC)? I'm a great fan of the Doctor, but here in the Netherlands only season 3 is aired on the SciFi Channel (just as last year )
JJonas Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 It just occured to me with their ability to get kids to stand still and shut-up the 456 would be great for school discipline.
alan-d Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 It just occured to me with their ability to get kids to stand still and shut-up the 456 would be great for school discipline. But what about the teachers that run around screaming?
korifugi Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 But what about the teachers that run around screaming? How is this different from normal???

garethEds Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 The picture on BBC HD is fantastic. I've never seen Eve Miles looking so sexy and boy is she sexy. Beats Martha Jones (who is also great in HD!!!) Sorry - got carried away there. GJE
gavins38 Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 I've never watched Torchwood before but this mini-series is fantastic! Tense, emotional and genuinely scary! It's what the BBC should be about!
sparkeh Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Ianto....dead? Working for Torchwood does little for your life expectancy (Tosh, Owen...although Owen exceeded his life expectancy)
