Torchwood

The second series of this sci-fi show started last week and it was a real blast, watch this teaser to get a small taste - and yes that is Spike from Buffy getting in on some man on man action.

It is a spin off for the Captain Jack character from the new Doctor Who, the Torchwood institute is based in Cardiff where due to some rift in the space time continuum extraterrestrial things keep happening.

The team’s mission is to investigate these events and handle any fall out from them, frequently saving the planet or just the good people of Cardiff from destruction. As it goes out post watershed (21:00) it is darker than Doctor Who with more swearing and “adult” scenes and I find it to be most entertaining.

And for any US readers with access to BBC America the new series will start on January 26th.

Does BBC offer their program(me)s on the web, like NBC-TV does?

PD, They introduced a BBC iplayer feature in December last year that allows you to download or view programmes for seven days after transmission - only in the UK (rights issues).

They post some stuff on UK YouTube but the stuff they post there cannot be viewed outside the UK.

BBC Worldwide posts some stuff on your YouTube in it's own channel.

gawd, but that was pervy! I loved it.

Knew he was holding something major back. Only caught a few eps of Torchwood last season, but I really loved it. I adore that girl with the kinda wonky teeth - she's really sexy.

I've been watching the Doctor Who and Torchcwood reruns on BBC America. I can't wait for this weekend, especially for Doctor Who. Torchwood is still growing on me.

Phlegmmy, Thought that clip would float your boat. I like the Gwen character as well.

rt, Enjoy the reruns, the first two of the new Torchwood have both been really good.
