"The 21st Century is when it all changes and you've got to be ready..." - Captain Jack Harkness.
Torchwood follows the adventures of a team of investigators, led by the enigmatic Captain Jack. Set in the UK in the present day, the team use scavenged alien technology in a very real world to solve crime; both alien and human. Separate from the government. Outside the police. Beyond the United Nations. Everyone who works for Torchwood is young, under 35. Some say that's because it's a new science. Others say it's because they die young...

Well, what can I say about the fantastic show that is Torchwood? Its sexy, gory, funny and sometimes downright scary - just about what everyone wants from an adult sci-fi then!
The amazing aliens that appear and the relationships that emerge between the characters make the show irrisistable and something that can be watched over and over again.
Torchwood or Doctor Who?
Its hard to compare these two shows as thay are both aimed at different age ranges and groups of people, so if you have children then definatley Doctor Who, but for yourself, if you think you'd like what I've described, most definatly Torchwood!
I was amazed with this series when i first watched it on BBCthree last year and it gripped me right from the very beginning of the series and never let go until the fabulous and explosive finale.This series is completely unpredictable and definately as good as Buffy the vampire slayer.
I dont think i can compare it to doctor who because both shows are completely different.
for everyone who loves cool monsters,suspense,bloody violence and jaw dropping visual effects.
I cant wait until they show series 2.
welcome to torchwood!
I became obsessed with this series after watching the 1st episode. I think it is much better than Doctor Who. I love the relationship between Jack and Gwen.
I know when I am buying DVDs, somethimes I wonder wheather they will be as good as I expect. Well this one is better! I know that I read cumtomer comments before I buy anything, so I am going to pursuade you to buy it aswell! If you don't you don't know what you are missing! I think that Part 3, is the best and will leave you longing for the next series!
