John Barrowman Does Single Ladies
November 12, 2009 by Cynthia
Hmmm…that title might not be the best way to word this. . . how about, here’s a fun video of Torchwood star John Barrowman rocking out to Beyonce’s “Single Ladies.” I don’t know if it’s for real or fan made, if you know, let me know — but it’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
Thanks to Small Screen Scoop and my Twitter buddy Jessica Rae for the tip.
Davies Talks About the Future in Torchwood Magazine
August 18, 2009 by Cynthia
“I could write you scene one of series four right now,” says Russell T Davies in a revealing interview with Torchwood Magazine. “I know exactly how to pick it up. I’ve got a shape in mind, and I’ve got stories. I know where you’d find Gwen and Rhys, and their baby, and Jack, and I know how you’d go forward with a new form of Torchwood.”
The news will come as a tonic to fans of the show, which enjoyed runaway success in the ratings when the latest series Children of Earth screened over five nights in July this year. The …read more
Torchwood COE: The End is Near
July 24, 2009 by Cynthia
Now that I’ve seen all but the final episode of Torchwood: Children of Earth, I can understand the high praise that has been heaped upon the series. These last three days have gotten progressively more intense, more exciting and they hurt like heck. My only wish? That I hadn’t been spoiled for tonight’s big finish.
Let’s turn the clock back to Day Two. Even though the action was up, I wasn’t any happier with the plot twists of Two than I was with One. What it comes down to is simply this — I like my team as a team. I …read more
Torchwood COE: Day One
July 20, 2009 by Cynthia
For months now, I’ve been hearing the hype about Torchwood Children of Earth. ‘Torchwood: Children of the Earth’: in a word? Awesome’, ‘Nothing seen from two seasons of Torchwood comes close,’ ‘As good as “Torchwood” has been, it’s never been this good.’
I gotta wonder, can the series actually live up to the hype? After watching Day One, I’m not so sure it can.
I wish I hadn’t gone into this with such high expectations – not that the show wasn’t entertaining or exciting, but there were moments where, frankly, I was bored, or worse annoyed.
Before I dissect this puppy, …read more
Gareth David-Lloyd Answers Your Questions
A few weeks ago, we asked for your questions for Gareth David-Lloyd and now we’ve got his answers. Listen in while Torchwood’s Ianto talks about his character, his band and his interactions with the fans.
Matt asked: Was there a turning point in Torchwood for you? A scene where you felt like you’d hit your stride and really knew who Ianto was?
Gareth: Probably, I’d say, episode 5 of Season 1. It was actually a scene we did after we finished, but we went back to do it because it felt like there was a gap in Ianto’s recovery. There’s a moment …read more

Do You Have a Question for Gareth David-Lloyd?
June 30, 2009 by Cynthia
He’s Torchwood’s primo concierge, providing everything from delicious hot coffee, to Weevil retrieval, to a rousing game of strip hide and seek, if that’s what will help get you through the day. He’s Ianto Jones and despite what he seems to be on the outside, it seems there’s something dark and mysterious beneath that perfect pinstripe suit.
Making Ianto walk and talk is Welsh actor Gareth David-Lloyd and he’s going to join me for a chat tomorrow morning! Late notice, I know, but if you have a burning question to ask Gareth, leave it here in the comments and I’ll do …read more
Russell T Davies: Torchwood Touches a Nerve
June 29, 2009 by Cynthia
“We are coming.”
If you’ve been watching BBC America, you’ve seen the promos for Torchwood: Children of Earth. That chilling voice over — Jack, Gwen and Ianto in a panic state. All those dead eyes staring back at you! It’s Torchwood’s creepiest monsters ever — kids!
“They just touch a nerve,” says Torchwood creator Russell T. Davies. “A threat to our children gets a primal reaction out of all of us. But beyond that, I think we can be scared of our kids, too. That they can seem unknowable, unreachable – that’s why a gang of young hoodies can seem more unnerving …read more
