Why didn't I know Torchwood

[ellceeell]

is being repeated on Fridays? I've missed the first few already!

Haven't you watched them the first time? Ooooh captain Jack!

God it's fantastic, I loved it.

Blimey. Has it started again?? I haven't seen any publicity at all. When is it on?

It's not a new series is it? Isn't it repeats?

its repeats, must say it never floated my boat when it first aired.i have now changed my tune and think its fabarooney

I didn't like it first time round either, but I'm really enjoying the repeats. There are some fun fanvids on Youtube if you can't go a week without a bit of Captain Jack.

Is the next series on yet?

I don't even like sci-fi but I loved Torchwood (mainly for Captain Jack). Is there to be another series?

Next series is January , I think.

Isn't Spike from Buffy meant to be in the next series?

Hmm, I watched the first episode of Torchwood and thought it was ABSOLUTELY dire. Does it improve then?

Yes it does. The inter-relationships between the different characters build.

Obviously we are not talking a work of literature here, but I remember watching the first episode retrospectively having missed it originally, and it definitely lacked a lot that the later episodes contained. The final episode was brilliant.

All I remember from the first couple of episodes was lots of girl/girl snogging. I think they went overboard trying to show how "adult " it was going to be. The later episodes that I've seen are a lot better.

Spike from Buffy? Really?

I think I read somewhere he's going to be another time agent from the future.

While I have every wish and, indeed, confidence that the next series of "Torchwood" will build upon the first and will show greater maturity in the scriptwriting, and will go more deeply into the potential for character conflict and arc-building and will generally be a more erudite, complete and satisfying whole...

...I hope they still have lots of girl-girl snogging.

Snogging and Spike....

I'm no fan, although DD loves Dr Who, but MY, MY, MY, John Barrowman is a fine figure of a man.

He's a bit of a fine figure in the way that my friend Marian's mum used to refer to a Fine Big Girl, though, isn't he. You get quite a lot of Barrowman for your money.

Blimey, what IS it about him? Everyone seems to love him!

No wonder Chris from CBeebies (allegedly) and Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen (by his own admission) camp(ed) it up to convince women they are/were gay and get loads of attention from would-be "converters"!

...says the bloke who just rooted (and I use the word advisedly) for girl-on-girl action...

oh, indeedy... I am at least consistent... in my typical straight-maleness.

I like a chap that comes with a healthy portion of meat, MI

Are you saying Chris from Cbeebies isn't gay? He's so camp! Can't wait for Spike - hope he's got that faux English accent again!
