Just saw it. Looks good. Is it a spin off from Dr. Who? The kids where playing Robin Hood while it was on and I heard nothing.

Ooooh whenwhenwhenwhen??

Blandmum · 07/10/2006 20:02

Pixel · 07/10/2006 22:25

I've heard it's starting on 22nd October.

sockmonkey · 08/10/2006 14:43

We are very excited about this too. Keep us posted!

UnquietDad · 11/10/2006 14:28

Yes, starts an 13-ep run on Sun 22nd Oct - first ep is a BBC1/BBC3 simulcast, next ep is on BBC3 straight after, thereafter BBC3 only.

After that, the whole series will be on BBC1 in the New Year.

Good totty ration for the DHs - Eve Myles, Indira Varma and Naoko Mori!

Is anyone else already bickering with small Dr Who fans about this? Ds is soooo cross it is on at 9pm and I am having to try to explain without going into to too much detail about the lush John Barrowman. He couldn't give a hoot about Captain Jack, dressed or not, but is livid to be missing the half-human, half-cybermen

UnquietDad · 11/10/2006 22:03

No, TW not good for smalls. It's The X-Files meets This Life - will be full of sex and drugs and rock and roll. Okay, maybe not too much roll.

Actually I'm rather wondering how that crossover is going to work:

-----------

INT: Dimly-lit, messy living-space, evening.
ANNA is snorting coke off the kitchen worktop while MILES reads the paper.

JACK strolls in, chucks his laser-rifle on to the table and puts his feet up with an exasperated sigh.

ANNA: Hard day?

JACK: Hey, every day's a hard day, baby. Gimme a beer.

ANNA chucks Jack a can, which he noisily cracks open.

MILES: Do you think you could find time to do your washing-up? I mean, it's not too fucking much to ask, it it? I thought you gays were meant to be tidy.

ANNA: He's bisexual.

MILES: Yeah, yeah, whatever. More like tri-sexual. As in, he'll try anything.

JACK (grins, swings his legs down): Hey, I kinda like that. Can I use that? Oh, by the way - duck.

MILES: What the fuck are you on about?

JACK: That alien assassin I was telling you about? I think he followed me back. He's standing in the doorway. (points.)

MILES: Fuck!! (leaps under the table.)

(ANNA fells hideous alien with rabbit-punch and slams him against the wall before skewering him with kitchen-knife. JACK grabs laser-rifle and pumps several bolts into the assassin's body.)

ANNA: (Shakes head.) Fuck's sake. Got to ask the landlord to get that lock fixed. (Lights a cigarette.) Well, I'll be in my room if anyone needs me.

JACK: Hey, a guy could get used to that kind of invitation.

ANNA: Down, boy.

MILES: Oh, please. (Flounces off.)

---------

Yes, okay... I can sort of see it working...

I am quite genuinely trying not to slaver at the prospect of a Jackfest. So to speak.

UnquietDad · 11/10/2006 22:08

Which is not to be confused with Channel 4's Wankathon.

ilovecaboose · 11/10/2006 22:18

pmsl - unquietdad please warn those of us with weak pelvic floors b4 you say things like that

Oooh programme for adults starring captain Jack , what could be better

nikkie · 14/10/2006 19:39

Looks really good, are you sure it will be on bbc1 the first week ?I have only seen it advertised as bbc3, do I have to take a digibox on holiday with me?

Scheduling still uncertain - see the other Torchwood thread for updates.

AshNotTheHousewaresOne · 16/10/2006 16:18

nikkie · 16/10/2006 22:09
