Torchwood Tenderness - 07.01.08
Torchwood's Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) faces a dilemma when rogue Time Agent Captain John Hart (James Marsters) wreaks havoc on Cardiff in the first episode of the new series - should he kiss him or kill him? Torchwood creator and executive producer Russell T Davies said: "The sparks fly for Captain Jack when Captain John hits town. There is a lot of history between them. It could go either way!" The new series of Torchwood starts on BBC Two , on January 16 at 9pm. Due to popular demand there is now a specially edited pre-watershed repeat the following day, on BBC Two at 7pm. During the 13 part series the Torchwood team - Gwen (Eve Myles), Owen (Burn Gorman, Toshiko (Naoko Mori) and Ianto (Gareth David-Lloyd) - led by Captain Jack, investigate alien activity which gives them glimpses into the 51st Century and World War One. They encounter alien sleeper cells; save a stranded creature from human exploitation and meet a memory thief who exposes long forgotten secrets among the entire team. Guest stars throughout the run include Alan Dale (Ugly Betty, The O.C); Doctor Who's travelling companion Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman); Richard Briers, Nerys Hughes and Ruth Jones.
