Torchwood

[JHyde]

Really glad Gwen's dad is back in the plot, as I said after the first episode airs it really grounds the story in a familiar way. In much the same way as Ianto's niece and nephew and Jack's grandson were used in Children of Earth.

Oswald's deeply troubling parody of Jesus in the hospital was probably the highlight of the episode. This season of Torchwood feels like a cross between Buffy and Spooks - and I'm OK with that!

Wonderful to have Mare Winningham in there too and Lauren Ambrose continues to be fantastic - I can't wait to see where she goes in the show. Jilly's role is still hidden.

I do have the feeling that this season could have been a lot shorter; it feels like it's being spun out a bit. This could change as the show moves further along, but for now it does feel like every episode has some 'treading water' moments.

TL, Jack and Gwen have never been together in that way, as far as we know. They've always had a connection that supersedes the relationships that either of them has been in, but it's never been consummated.

I think in my own mind though I'm not thinking of it as Sci fi as I haven't seen any space ships yet or green men with big hands.

Episode 3 did surprise me a little though. I was convinced Capt Jack was the father of the Welsh woman's baby. After last nights shenanigans, I feel this isn't very likely

What made you think that? I'm not saying that it can't happen otherwise but she's married to Rhys. Jack and Gwen have never been together (that we know of so far) and it's highly unlikely that they ever will given recent promotional interviews for the series.

I think its canon that Rhys is the dad. Though some of the Gwen/Jack banter does hit that they fancy each other - Jacks "Mistress" comment to Gwen all dressed up the the sexy black dress for example.

I think that's just Jack being Jack and flirting with anyone - he's not fussy!

I and a lot of people I know also Jack is baby Anwens father, this is the creator of Dr Who you know, sci fi, retcon etc, nothing is all it seems, back and forward in time, unseen deeds, unspoken love etc, something left for fans imagination, read into what you want, gay, bi, straight, something for all minds
