Us writers at Torchwood.TV could always sign some of the leaked call sheets from last Spring, I wonder how much that might raise for a good cause. Speaking of, Sparklies had to take down their spoilerful Torchwood photos for the remaining episodes by order of the BBC. I have been so busy I even missed those! My wife and I are in the process of uprooting and moving to greener pastures, workwise. So you'll be happy to hear you won't be hearing much from me this month.
And finally, we have more information care of Finch at OG about the Torchwood DVD box sets, we already know that Volume one comes out on December 26th. It will contain episodes 1-5. (Don't forget to order it from the handy link on the top left to help support your favorite Torchwood blog!) The second volume is due out on February 26th featuring episodes 6 -10, and finally volume three will come out a month later on March 26th containing the last three episodes and lots of extras.
Enjoy Random Shoes tonight and have a wonderful Woodie week.

Nooooooooooooo!!! Kurly is going for a while.
Why have you stopped putting trailers in posts?
"Random Shoes" was a terrific piece of television drama which came as a real surprise to me as I began to realise, as the narrative progressed, that this was the "Torchwood" equivalent of the, personally loathed, "Love & Monsters" episode of “Doctor Who”! I'm glad they had the courage to change the title from the more obvious "Invisible Eugene" to the slightly cryptic one on screen. They gave in to commercial pressures changing "The Trouble With Lisa" to "Cyberwoman", in an attempt to grab a bigger audience, just as "Doctor Who" did in the mid-80s changing "The Androgum Inheritance", a far superior title, to "The Two Doctors"!
I think it's a shame Sparklies have been forced to remove all their galleries. Maybe the official “Torchwood” site should offer a weekly selection of images, in keeping with the parent show, instead of unnecessarily-flashy navigation! The BBC are happy to charge over the odds when it comes to selling "Doctor Who" and related DVDs. Compare the prices of the Tennant box set with the fourth season of "Spooks" or "Bleak House", for example. The "Torchwood" DVDs are notably more expensive than the equivalent "Robin Hood" releases and yet the BBC are reluctant to allow the fans of these series, who actually actively promote them with free publicity even in constructive criticism, a few good quality large photos! We live in a truly mean world where money seems to be the only consideration. Is Christmas truly a season of good will?!!

Isn't it hosted on a free webspace with lots of adverts already though?
Random shoes was the worst episode ever of torchwood and they couldn't to a worse episode even if they try.
