Third episode on BBC3 tonight @ 22:00.
Looks as though it could be quite an interesting series.

I missed it on the premier, but caught up with it on the Wednesday evening (when it's repeated on BBC2)

Taped them all so far - not had a chance to watch them yet though. Hopefully over the next few days (at least before the next episode - I'm running out of space on the "plus" box!)

Here's hoping it lives up to the hype. Got a bit bored with the latest series of Dr Who, and so only watched the first couple.

Cheers

Started to watch the second of the new seasons to see Amry of Ghosts but not got that far yet. Dad spent ages raving about it.

You know, looking at that rangie it seems to have a roof hatch as well as other bits,  I think it's the camera vehicle they use for filming and they're just using it as it looks cool.

They wernt really what I recall faireis being in the kids stories. We twigged what was going on with jack the first time they went round there. Bit where Gwenn picked up the picture gave it away.

Very Emotive episode too, had Bunnie in tears.

nice to see proof that a sci-fi series does NOT need £millions of SFX to work. B5 didnt need it and it looks like Torchwood might pull it off, so long as theres more of this. Nice change from the slightly childish Cyberwoman episode.
