Torchwood 5 (No Spoilers)

[gaspode]

A Cracker ...

This was more like it - Even better than Ghost Machine ...

More like this please (and next weeks looks promising too) ...

Mind you as soon as I found out this was a P J Hammond ep I had high hopes and wasn't disapointed (for those that don't know PJH was original writer of Saphire and Steel).

Less pratting about with skimply clad cyber babes and homo erotic subtext and more serious horror fantasy please.

You know, as an aside, I'm begining to think Rose didn't revive Jack in PotW .. I'm starting to have a feeling he was already immortal ... Hopefully some more back story will be forth coming ...

Well done torchwood - Your first 5 out of 5 of the season.

Maybe he started in the 51st Century (as he claims in Empty Child / The Doctor Dances); came back in time to the start of the Second World war; went forward with the Doctor and Rose; died and got brought back to life by Rose; waited around for a bit until he found another time travel machine; went back to the Middle Ages; and founded the MacLeish line in Scotland.

And then has been wandering around ever since, thus being in the same timeline twice, for a while...

I'm still not sure ... I wouldn't put it past RTD to have thrown a curve ball their .... It was never explicitly said that Rose brought him back...

Jus' sayin'. That's all. I can't actually bring myself to care enough to guess the back plot.
