Re: Torchwood , new series
I gave it a chance - but I remember now why I never continued watching it before. A potentially good storyline spoiled by a strange mix of 'CBBC standard drama' and explosions; and in addition now to some overdramatic Yankee acting.
And John Barrowman - I keep expecting him to break out into song and dance. He has some offbeat twenty-something spiky haircut despite the fact that he's clearly well over 40 - it screams attention seeking actor rather than mysterious lone ranger.
I'm not a doctor who fan per se, but I admire the fact that it knows what it is. It doesn't take itself too seriously. Torchwood needs to figure out what it is and go one way or the other; rather than being a watered down version of everything.
^ The suicide bomber scene with the pliers was good, but apart from that it just felt forced.
