Well, it's being transmitted as a double bill both on BBC3 and later on BBC2. So chances are, people are going to view them both in one sitting.

Even so, we've seen this issue discussed over nBSG eps, so I leave it at your discretion.

The episode in question: meteorite, pretty obvious. Wondering how they're going to go about that scenario.

I'm getting Lifeforce vibes.

If I have to die, THAT is how I'm going. Plus, you've never heard hilarity until you hear a Welsh bloke fuck.

This is kind of like the stories they wanted to do on doctor who but the Saturday night dinner time slot would never allow.

DW is a kids show. This isn't. It's that simple.

As an aside, the moral objections Gwen comes up with will show up Torchwood as being a bit too authoritarian. The ID scanner with every UK citizen on file, for instance.

Being a former cop, she likely doesn't do this underhanded stuff too well.

I didn't know what it was until it was released... interesting, most interesting.

I would've thought Captain Jack would be the obvious choice for sexing her up. He can't die, right?

Poor explody mouse. :(
