And with John Barrowman once he'd got over the initial shock.

He is a bit of a eyeopener when you first see him (on TV in my case).

I am excited for season three to be honest. I love Captain John. James Marsters is a complete legend tbh.

Well have a gander at the upcoming Captain John action figure, then.

Mickey, Did you watch last weeks programme on JB, "The making of Me"?

It was very interesting I thought.

Loved Scott`s reply that he never reads John`s weekly schedule. Poor Scott. With such a busy schedule that John seems to have, it`s a wonder they manage to get any time together at all.

I did see the show, yes. I could have done with more depth, but it was entertaining enough, and it's always good to see Scott. Usually he just lurks in the background - at Outpost Gallifrey we play Spot Scott on TV shows that JB is in. Nice to see him in the foreground for once, and actually speaking audibly. Scott has a voice! And a microphone for a change!

Does anyone know when Torchwood is gonna be back?

2009.

BBC1

One story spanning 5 eps being shown in one single week.

With any luck. I hope Mickey is there.

I don`t want to think we saw the last of him.

To be honest, i'm not sure if i'm completely looking forward to the new Torchwood series.

It won't be the same without Tosh and Owen.

Admittedly, i didn't like Owen that much and it took me 2 series to warm up to him but i really liked Tosh. Now, if it had be Gwen, that would have been a different matter

But anyhooo, there are only going to be 5 episodes for this series isn't there...

No Torchwood wont be the same.

But it still has Jack and Ianto, more than enough to take the focus off Gwen.

That is true

I shall continue to watch it though as i thoroughly enjoy stuff like Torchwood.

I think Mickey will be in it and perhaps maybe Martha will be as well.

Children Of Earth is the title for S3. It's cool,right?

Does sound cool

Tho, if the season is only going to be 5 episodes and a continous (?) story...will they still have titles for the episodes?

"Filming for the third series of the smash hit drama Torchwood, created by Doctor Who writer Russell T Davies, has begun in Cardiff.



Due to transmit in 2009 on BBC One, the series – called Torchwood: Children Of Earth – sees the team embarking on a single action-packed adventure as they battle for the future of the human race against the fiercest force they have encountered.



The highly-motivated Torchwood team are John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness, Eve Myles as Gwen Cooper and Gareth David-Lloyd as Ianto Jones.



Other regular cast involved in their high-octane adventure are Kai Owen as Rhys Williams, Gwen's husband, and Tom Price as PC Andy.



Special guests in the five part series are Peter Capaldi (Doctor Who, The Thick Of It, Skins), who plays the role of Mr Frobisher – a civil servant who is hiding a terrible secret; Paul Copely (Coronation Street, The Bill) as Clem – the survivor still haunted by his past; and Liz May Brice (Bad Girls, The Bill) as Johnson – the cynical covert government agent determined to expose Torchwood.



Russell T Davies said: "The new series of Torchwood is hugely bold and promises to be bigger and better than ever – the audience is in for an amazing ride.



"This series is one big serial and the most ambitious story we've ever made, and we've got plenty of surprises in store."



Julie Gardner, Head of Drama, BBC Wales, said: "We hope to make Torchwood a gripping and surprising TV event with storylines that push our team into greater danger and sacrifice.



"Joining our main cast are some fantastic guest artists who will only add to making this unmissable TV."



The first two series of Torchwood have received global critical acclaim and the hit drama has been sold to more than 20 countries.



The second series of the BBC Wales-produced series, broadcast on BBC Two earlier this year, attracted audiences of around 3.4 million, peaking at 4.2 million for the first episode. Including viewers on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer the consolidated audience was 5.1 million.



When it launched on BBC Three in October 2006, it attracted the channel's highest viewing figures, with an audience of 2.5 million for the first episode.



Torchwood is executive produced by Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner. The producer is Peter Bennett (Doctor Who).



Torchwood is written by Russell T Davies, John Fay (Clocking Off, Coronation Street, Mobile) and James Moran (Doctor Who, Torchwood) and directed by Euros Lyn (best director in BAFTA Cymru TV Awards, Doctor Who, George Gently).



Torchwood is a BBC Wales for BBC Drama Production and was commissioned by Jane Tranter, BBC Controller of Fiction"
