Mia Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Oh my. That was brilliant. It was also amazingly sad. Be warned - more sensitive souls (like me) will need a few hankies. I'd just about got myself under control at the end when the dedication to Verity Lambert came up and set me off again. The Host were so creepy. They reminded me of the statues in Blink. There were some excellent special effects, lots of humour and even more people dying heroically to save others. It was all like The Poseidon Adventure in space! Well, what do they expect if they call their ship The Titanic? Straight after, there was a trailer for Doctor Who with Catherine Tate as the new companion (it looked good) and then one for Torchwood which made it look very good - let's hope it actually is this time.

Michelle Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Phew, I was nervous reading this, because we often disagree... but I loved this Special too! It was hilarious in places, and also very touching. Fingers crossed the new series keeps it going! I missed the Torchwood preview.. I'll have to go back to Sky+ and check!

Mia Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 I met John Barrowman! It's so cool! He signed my programme and DVD! Ooh! You lucky thing! Was he as charming as he appears to be on screen? I get the feeling he's quite arrogant, but he has so much charisma that you just have to forgive him! Did you see him on that ITV skating show, what was it called, Dancing on Ice? And will you be watching Torchwood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Torchwood season two looks good, i wonder if we will be seeing the rani in the next who series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laramie Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 He's really hyper, actually. He can't keep still for a second and he's not arrogant either; he's lovely I wasn't allowed to watch Torchwood 1 but as they're doing a pre-watershed repeat of series 2 I'm allowed to watch it! Yay!!

Mia Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 DWMG - I'm pleased for you that you will be able to watch a version of Torchwood (though I would hate to see a censored version. Hopefully they will do a better editing job than C4 did with Angel). Ooh, and I heard that James Marsters (Spike from Buffy) is in the first episode! Hurrah!

Guest fireball Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Mia, did you say "Spike from Buffy" is in "Torchwood"? first episode second series.? B'l'o'o'd'y hell! That'll be brill, I liked his short stint in the Smallville" TV show AND wanted more of him, and also remember 'Spike's' then girlfriend in the earlier series of Buffy TVS,? I love to see her too. Daft bit of "did you know coming up"..... Juliet Landau she who played the dread (and very dead!) Drusilla Spike's girlfriend, god help him!!! well Miz Landau's parents are known WELL known actor/tress in their own right, they appeared together in the 60's classic spy TV series the original MISSION IMPOSSIBLE in which the 'new' rather lame Movies are named after; her mum and dad continued their double act in a British classic si/fi series of the early/middle 1970's you just might remember....Space 1999, and they are Barbara Bain and Martin Landau. Just thought some 'useless' information to make your day.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mia Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Yeah, I did know about Juliet's parents - my brothers used to avidly watch Space 1999 but it was just before my time! I'm sure we've got a Space 1999 annual or two somewhere in the loft! James "Spike" Marsters is definitely in this series of Torchwood, but I'm not 100% certain which episode. The latest I heard was that the series opens with a two-parter, and he's in this. I also heard that he shares a snog with Captain Jack! I loved Spike and his "British" accent, which I thought was pretty good, unlike Drusilla's "cockernee"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
