In truth, I’m not really sure what to say about Day 5, as I’m still a bit shell-shocked.
It was brilliant though, no doubt about that. Even at its best, I don’t think anyone could’ve predicted exactly how good Torchwood could be. Children of Earth has been a standout piece of television, and people will be [...]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Ummmm, so yeah, as with all my reviews, there’s spoilers here. If you’ve not seen Day 4 yet, you’re almost certainly going to regret reading this.
What was really nice, was when I logged into Twitter last night, two of the highest trending topics were “Torchwood” and “Ianto”. It really helped underline just how popular this [...]

So, with the Hub destroyed, and Jack blown to tiny pieces, things were grim last night for Gwen and Ianto.
Again, I’m very impressed by how good this is. I’d been slightly worried that after the cracking opener, subsequent episodes would be a let down, but this continued to deliver great TV. There were some great [...]

Well, that was incredibly good.
I think this was the show most people probably had in mind when Torchwood was first announced. Very much an adult Sci-Fi drama, without the adolescent undertones that resulted in such criticism of Torchwood’s first season. The second season had obviously taken a long, hard look at those criticisms and addressed [...]
