Torchwood Speculation thread (Spoilers for New Doctor Who)

[Egeria]

I don't want to start a new thread to ask this, but I was wondering...is Captain Jack bisexual?

I think we can safely say that he is.

More omnisexual. The Doctor clearly implies that a human from Jack's time would have little or no prejudices on grounds of gender or species.

I don't know about the series itself, but the Torchood reference in Tooth and Claw was horribly laboured. I hope they can be more subtle in future.

No, why would you ask that?

Spoiler:

OK so "Tooth & Claw" sets up Torchwood as a little sinister. I hope so anyway. I am not sure I like the idea that Capt Jack might not have any memory of The Doctor, either from his past or his future though. I want banter and stuff, eventually.

thanks, must have missed that.

I'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.

Apparently not, I've heard that it isnt set before he met the 9th Doctor, and I have also read that he comes across Torchwood when he arrives in Cardiff, he goes there because of the rift, knowing that it is the most likely place for the Doctor to arrive in at some point or another. Its a possibility, but I think we will find out about the Captains past in S3/29 and beyond.

"So many species, so little time."

"Thats.... what we do? When we get out there? We...."

"Dance!"

I'm trying to find the Doctor. Because there is something that the viewing public won't know yet, there's something about Jack that nobody knows. And he needs the Doctor.

Heres the rest

Any thoughts?

[Metarock Sam]

It will be something to do with eitherhow Jack makes it back or to do with his 2 missing years of his life.

I was thinking we could use this thread to talk about the new Torchwood series. Keeping all the thoughts in one place, and if there ever is a sub-forum made at a later stage it can always be chucked in. But for now I wanted to discuss some things about Torchwood, and thought I might aswell make a place. Couldn't find one already.

I'm really looking forward to it, hopefully it will be quite a dark series, maybe with some of Jack's humor helping it, he did have a good wit.

I'm thinking it will take place in the alt universe? That may explain why Torchwood has to deal with events and problems, and why the Doctor isn't around to help.

Perhaps Billie would guest star as a member visiting Cardiff from the London HQ? What do you think the stories will be like? I understand they will be more detective-like, but I wonder how they will incorporate that with aliens and odd goings on without making it too similar to DW.

Anyway I can't wait, when does it start again? And what's everyone elses thoughts, too soon for a spinoff? BBC3=doom?

[Flyboy]

No to the alt universe. Jack is in OUR universe.

I just hope it's not as lame as the Torchwood in the last two eps of Doctor Who S28 were...

[Scoobing]

The name is cool at least. And the idea itself has promised. I'm hopeful.

Testify!!!

So, i get the feeling that Jack's issues have something to do with his revival, wonder how that will pan out. Anyway, I get the feeling that this is a totally different Torchwood to the one in London, from what we have heard and seen it just seems darker IMO.

We have one of these already guys http://forum.gateworld.net/showthrea...t=21655&page=2
