NEW Cult TV Show: Torchwood is a science fiction drama television programme, created by Russell T. Davies and starring John Barrowman and Eve Myles.
It deals with the machinations and activities of the
Cardiff branch of the fictional Torchwood Institute,
who deal with supernatural occurrences. An initial
13-part series was commissioned by the BBC as
a spin-off from the long-running science fiction series Doctor Who with which it is closely interlinked.
On 12 December 2006, the BBC announced that it
was commissioning a second series.
The programs have more adult sexy & racy content
than found in the traditionally family-oriented
Doctor Who. The second series started filming in
Spring 2007 and will premiere exclusively on BBC Two in early 2008. It was seen on Channel 10 in Australia. Captain Jack,

Dr Who now & again.
