Re: [scifinoir2] News For Martha Jones Fans - Dr. Who/torchwoord
Pal, in the DW S3 ep "Tooth and Claw", the Doctor ended up in Scotland, protecting Queen Victoria from an alien werewolf. Her Nibs was grateful, but also fearful, thinking that the Doctor was just one of many "evil threats" from outer space. To thank him, she knighted him, then banned him from England for life, and created Torchwood to "defend the British Empire, by any means necessary". Think of them as the SF version of HomeInsec. All the money they want, and carte blanche to operate as they see fit within Britain. There used to be a number of field offices, but now only the one in Cardiff remains, after the Dalek/Cybermen War wiped out all the other branches.

In the episode that he meets Rose, he talks about his problem. The episode that is on now is pretty good. Very good stores centering on other teammates.

Torchwood is an origination that monitors alien and strange happenings. It keeps the world safe. There is a rift in Cardiff Wales and a lot of things come through. So they keep track of it. Capt Jack cannot die. He is a time agent, not a time lord. He is somewhat reformed. _http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood/_ (http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood/) **Ideas to please picky eaters.

Re: [scifinoir2] News For Martha Jones Fans - Dr. Who/torchwoord
To paraphrase, the rumors of her departure are greatly exaggerated. She's on the record as saying that there's no trouble between her and Catherine Tate, that neither of them are being shouldered out for the other. Billie is *never* returning. Any reports of that are from the Billie Piper Adoration Societies. She's presently doing a movie, and has two series waiting to go into production. The "No Doctor for a year" thing, unfortunately, is sorta true. Production for '09 is officially not happening, though there are things on the whisper-stream that say that the tale of the Last Great Time War will be shot as a series of three "Christmas Episode"-type deals, and that Paul McGann, the Doctor from the '99 Faux/Fixed/Fox movie, has been signed to reprise his role. This is a couple of months old, and no one's willing to substantiate this at this writing. I'm hoping for this to become real. As for "Primeval", I've seen the talk about it, but very little, and what I do hear is from Brit viewers who've been with it from jump street, and I get lost in the flow.

As for Torchwood, they were founded in the Dr. Who episode Tooth and Claw by Queen Victoria to protect England from extra-terrestrial threats (i.e. the Doctor). They were mentioned in several episodes in season 2. Torchwood season 1 was uneven, to say the best. Some really good episodes and some really not so good ones. You can Fanon a lot away by saying "well, they're the rump/branch office of Torchwood, right?" but thankfully season two has the team a lot more cohesive and less dysfunctional.

As for Torchwood, they were founded in the Dr. Who episode Tooth and Claw by Queen Victoria to protect England from extra-terrestrial threats (i.e. the Doctor). They were mentioned in several episodes in season 2. Torchwood season 1 was uneven, to say the best. Some really good episodes and some really not so good ones. You can Fanon a lot away by saying "well, they're the rump/branch office of Torchwood, right?" but thankfully season two has the team a lot more cohesive and less dysfunctional.

Something happened when Jack died and at the end of the episode you saw, he was still alive. Now he can't die. In fact, he and Rose have met him when they travel to the future.

Re: [scifinoir2] News For Martha Jones Fans - Dr. Who/torchwoord
So, Martin, what do you think is the real story? We heard rumors that they are getting rid of her, They deny them only to tell us that she is leaving who to visit Torchwood for three weeks and then return for four weeks with the new companion. Then we hear... no doctor for a year. then we hear, Catherine Tate is out as the companion and that Billy Piper is in. You are the Dr. Who expert here. Can you tell me what you think happened? in happening? and what you think will happen. and while you are at it, do you know anything about Primeval? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808096/ I read that is is a sort of Torchwood with Dinos.
