We Decide Which is Right and Which is an Illusion

You decide!

It's the finale of Torchwood tonight and I must say am really liking this format of one episode a day. The four episodes so far have been very well written with the right balance of drama, horror and comedy.

It's been far better than the previous two series, although they may not be a 4th series because :

( MAJOR SPOILER - CLICK HERE! )

From the Daily Record newspaper :

"Anyone sceptical about the ability of Doctor Who reviver Russell T. Davies to make spin-off Torchwood equally compelling had best just admit they were wrong and clear their diaries for five nights.

"This new Torchwood adventure... sees Captain Jack and his team in brilliant form and promoted to BBC1.

"The drama racks up the tension better than anything we've seen since 24, building into a sheer tour de force, a sensational TV event that will keep you on edge, night after night.

"Spine-tinglingly creepy one minute, sexy or amusingly sarcastic the next, this is a story that lead writer Russell says he has wanted to do for a long time..."


.

The first episode of Torchwood will air during the week of 4th-10th July on BBC1.

No confirmation that it will be shown on five consecutive nights as originally planned.

Watch this space!


.

So if the rumours are true and BBC One & BBC America are going to show Torchwood on the same day in the UK and the US then we now know the start date Monday 20th July !

It would appear that the new series of Torchwood will be broadcast in July, not June as originally thought.

Apparently John Barrowman, who is currently on tour in the UK, has been telling audiences that it will be July and Russell T Davis also indicated July in a recent TV interview.

From www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood


Torchwood will be back on BBC One at 9pm this summer.

That tells us a lot doesn't it?


Mind you, the rumour is that the broadcast dates will be June 15th to 19th.



.

Looking around the various TV forums it would appear that the favourite dates for broadcast of the new Torchwood (Which is moving from BBC2 to BBC1) is 15th to 19th June.

The reasoning behind this is that Ashes to Ashes (currently being shown at 9pm on Mondays) is due to finish on 8th June which then leaves a free slot (at least on the Monday!) before the Wimbledon tennis starts on 22nd June.







.

No transmission dates confirmed yet but here's a preview:

.

The BBC have today confirmed that season 4 of Doctor Who will start in week 15 (5th April to 11th April) Although they haven't confirmed day & time yet it is a surefire bet that it will be Saturday April 5th. (All previous series have been shown on a Saturday).

With Torchwood finishing on Friday April 4th, it should be a good weekend!




.

Enjoy!


.

The second series of Torchwood started tonight on BBC2 and very good it was too!

Some great one-liners as well, the very first line of the new series is "Excuse me, have you seen a blowfish driving a sports car?"

The second line was even funnier but I'm not going to spoil it, you'll have to watch it for yourselves!
