torchwood

I meant to ask, have Jack and Gwen ever had a 'moment', is it just her getting all girly-luvvy, or is it mutual lust ?

It's been hinted at a lot in the past and IIRC there was a scene in a season two episode where she tells Jack she's in love with him (something had happened to make the Torchwood team tell the truth). It was pretty dreary frankly and I'm glad we didn't get an encore in COE.

And a few scenes of supposed sexual tension between them in the first series. And his obvious jealousy when he finds out she was shagging Owen. That affair seems to have been completely written from the show's memory - thank fucking God.

I don't think so, there were plenty of references in Children Of Earth, subtle ones, but they were there.

It was clear she had chosen the 'good man, who belongs where he is', to the 'exciting, dangerous, but doesn't really "belong" anywhere' man.
 
I suspect she's not a stanger to keeping more than one pot simmering at once, nor though is Jack it seems. Modern relationships, eh :hmm:

Well I like to wipe it from my memory. That scene where he is has her up against a tree or a wall and is telling her how much she wants him to fuck her makes me feel ill inside.:( Disgusting, frog-faced rapist.

Ick. :(

I don't think I interpreted it the same way at the time.
 
I think the most implausible thing is when 1965 Torchwood bint says they are using Jack to give away the children because 'we need someone who doesn't care'.

Like that was ever a problem for the Government or military . . . :rolleyes:

Well the rapist part was from when he was using alien rophynol on strangers in a nightclub. Gwen, for some reason, really wanted him, though she hated herself for it. :confused:

The tree scene is .

I took that line to mean he didn't care about living or dying.

For me, that scene is top of the list when it comes to utterly shit moments in 'old' Torchwood. Risible dialogue and clumsy sex references shoehorned into the script to make it 'adult'. Fucking awful, unintentionally hilarious and about a million light years away from Children Of Earth.
 
Very impressed with the increasing darkness through the week, last episode was pretty uncomfortable viewing in some places.

Think they didn't make as much use of Super Bitch as they might, and obv there were a couple of plot holes, but very enjoyable stuff...
 
Fwiw, the character of Evil Woman is apparently 'Johnson':

She looks distractingly like 'Supernanny' :D
 
I loved the fact that they kept in a bit of that standing on rooftops and running around looking serious malarkey.

They do a lot of running about, don't they? I keep expecting them to collide with that lot from Primeval... :D

Still, Series 3 - massive improvement on what went before..

It's the whoniverse. Running around is SOP
 
Anyone else suddenly a little suspicious of the governments announcement today that that will be vaccinating us all against swine flu, and it seems a lot of countries will be following suite :hmm:

Yes. And I'm also worried about the giant pillar of fire I saw descend over central London this lunch time.

I thought you of all people would be less flippant, I thought you were seeing the bigger picture http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=295528

Typical cheery pip attitude of the English, it'll get you all killed I tell you, this smug complacency of yours. We need to raise awareness and foster that fighting Welsh spirit that helped saved the day

Now it makes me wonder....are they really building Olympic stadiums or is something more sinister afoot :hmm:
 
Just talking to a mate's ladyfriend, they liked it as well. The scene where Frobisher goes into the bedroom with the gun and closes the door . . . . after the third bang she said he shouted out 'You don't need a pony now, you Tory scum'.

Harsh but fair.
