Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who is confronted with it.

Looks like if the Doctor ever comes up against Torchwood he's gonna have problems, should be entertaining, too bad theres no crossovers in S1 and S2/28, but there is always the 2nd Christmas specialSpoiler:and rumer has it a certain Captain is appearing in that specialEquality is not a concept.

MASSIVE SPOILERS for Tooth and Claw:
Spoiler:In Tooth and Claw, having seen that there are enemies beyond planet Earth, Queen Victoria founds the Torchwood institute (after Torchwood house, in memory of a scientist and his grandson who's names I can't remember) to combat alien and supernatural threats. She also threatens that if the Doctor ever returns, Torchwood will be waiting for him.
They have existed since then, aquiring, researching and developing alien technology and handling extraterrestrial threats to Great Britain and the Earth.Last edited by Wraith Scientist; 22 April 2006, 11:41 AM.

Watch the latest Tardiose guys, looks like TorchwoodSpoiler:not only observe but hide information on aliens, why do I get the feeling that they arent meant to do it? Kinda makes me think Cpt Jack did it to lead the Doctor there, but I think I migh be reading too much into itLast edited by The Signal; 22 April 2006, 11:31 AM.Equality is not a concept.

They seem almost like UNIT to me, but might end up being allies or enemies. I could see them being a real pain in future for the Doctor

D'you think Jack might harbor any resentment towards the Doctor for leaving him stranded on the Bad Wolf station, or do you think he's more interested in just hooking up with him again (however you want to interpret that)? Or maybe he's having fun with Torchwood and is happy where he is?
Have we figured out how- or even if- the gap in Jack's memory figures in to any of this?

Originally posted by Flying Officer BennettI've suggested it many times before that I think Torchwood is set during the two year gap in Jack's memorys. Mainly due to the fact we are not told how Jack gets back from the future plus it would allow us to see a much darker Jack than we all know and love.

Originally posted by ShadowMaatI was leaning towards that, and given what Torchwood is up to, it'd make sense that at the end of it they'd wipe his memory, but a two year gap is an awfully small timeframe for a series, unless there's a whole lotta time travel involved. And if he's tripping through time, he wouldn't really need the Doctor, would he?
