dontasciime Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Torchwood is far better than I expected it to be. I'm hooked. Not for kids though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) Bit disapointed with the cyberwoman episode, it didnt seem to go anywhere apart from up and down stairs. John Barrowman was on Jonathon Ross last night and he was very funny, maybe they should inject a little of his humour into Torchwood.

dontasciime Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 The only dissapointing thing about that episode was the lack of pole dancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbminter Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I remember catching the music video for that song once, and only once, on late night Sunday MTV on some show about either independents or British music. Or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digidragon Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 If I'm correct, the next episode to air is The Impossible Planet, the first of a two-parter. I don't think db has seem these, and the two together make a very good story. Genuinely creepy in parts, with a great CGI monster. Enjoy this one, and the second part, The Satan Pit, as after those comes Love & Monsters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 The Idiot's Lantern is the one that most recently aired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Love and Monsters is a very poor episode IMHO Thanks for the YouTube link Jack - I haven't heard/seen that in years !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Dr. Demento even said it was most likely the return of the new series to Sci-Fi Channel that garnered so many requests for the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Oh, can the Doctor survive? http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/d...p;alreadySeen=1 Normally, I'm not a fan of Flash type animation in any format, but, even disregarding the "It's better no video at all argument," I must say, I like what I've seen so far. I HOPE this gets an R1 release! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbminter Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 So... does this image depict the first Idiot's Lantern in Doctor Who? There's just something about the "look" on that Cyberman's face, coupled with a lantern on top of his head... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Ok going back a few posts now - I managed to watch the first 2 episodes of Torchwood at the weekend which have been sitting on the Sky+ box for a while. I thought they were really good - once I got over the fact that DC Gwen Cooper is the maid from The Unquiet Dead - Charles Dickens episode of Dr Who I really enjoyed it. Have the rest of the series so far on Sky+ and will make an effort to see them this week, the nympho alien episode reminded me a little of Species as well.

digidragon Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 I went to the Doctor Who charity concert last night. The BBC Wales Orchestra were excellent. There was a short Q&A session with David Tennent, Russell T Davies, and Murray Gold (the composer). Nothing too interesting really, but it was cut short by a Dalek voice booming out of nowhere saying "Attention! This building is now under Dalek control!" A full-size Dalek then appeared on stage and moved about while the orchestra played music from the series. The was a huge screen above the stage, which was mostly showing clips from the last two series. But we were shown a clip from the upcoming christmas episode. It was a motorway chase scene involving a taxi (with the bride in) and the TARDIS dodging other cars, flying over them, trying to rescue the bride from the taxi. It was very impressive, and looked really well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digidragon Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 I liked the first one, the cyberfemale one, and the evil fairies one. I haven't been impressed with the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I have only seen the first two so far so will let you know how I get on with the rest..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Last nights episode started off really well, and was quite scary in places when you realise where I live!!!! I do think Torchwood suffers from the same problem Dr Who occasionally has, they run out of time and the end doesnt live up to the start. Still a pretty good episode last night, anybody want to come round to mine for dinner?? Mind you next weeks story looks good, Tosh gets a shag!!!!

dbminter Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Christopher Eccleston appears to have signed on to appear in the series Heroes. He may end up playing the serial killer. Another reason to like Heroes... even if it shameless rips off J. Michael Straczynski's Rising Stars comic book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Bugger! The Spearhead from Space was on tonight and missed most of it! Theres a British sci-fi season on BBC 4 and Spearhead was part of it, one of my favourite stories. You have got to love it when the Nestene starts to strangle the Dr at the end and Pertwee pulls his Navy Lark face, very funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I liked the first one, the cyberfemale one, and the evil fairies one. I haven't been impressed with the rest. I thought all fairies were considered evil in Britain. Well, up until 1966, wasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Lark? That was just Pertwee's negative reactions from reversing the polarity of the neutron flow of the Mind Probe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
