MR. SAXON WILL SEE YOU NOW...
The lengthy article includes interviews with David Tennant and Freema Agyeman, but you're not hear to read about them. No indeedy. There's a rather nice episode guide to the brand new series which reveals the mysterious title to episode 13 at long last. Invisotext time, cos I *think* the title itself may just confirm certain John Simm shaped rumours we've been hearing for a while now. The title is "Last of the Time Lords" - which doesn't automatically mean just one person. Dare I say it, but it does indeed look like the Master's back...
Below are Russell T Davies' own short synopsis for the final three episode's of the series - which all feature a certain John Barrowman as Captain Jack... BEWARE, SPOILERS!
11: Utopia
Guest stars: Derek Jacobi
"Jack's back! As John Barrowman's Captain Jack Harkness comes storming back on board the TARDIS - with an arrival like no companion has ever had before - it's time for the TARDIS's wildest ride yet! It hurtles out of control, taking the crew to the distant planet Malcassairo, where a lonely and patient professor is giving his all to save his people from extinction."
12/13: The Sound of Drums / Last of the Time Lords
Guest stars: John Simm, Tom Ellis and Nichola McAuliffe
"The season finale! And the trap closes, as the Doctor, Martha and Captain Jack find themselves in a desperate fight for survival. Who are the Toclafane? What is the power of Archangel? And what terrible secrets are stored at the heart of the Valiant? It's an epic and heartbreaking story, as the Doctor faces his greatst enemy yet. Now, I wonder who that could be...?"
Elsewhere, the SFX Doctor Who Special contains a short interview with Russell T Davies; which seems to indicate that when Captain Jack tells the Doctor he works for Torchwood (episode 12 apparently) the Time Lord isn't eaxctly happy. Well, Torchwood aren't exactly the Doctor's bestest of friends, are they?!?
A source who claims to be at the heart of BBC Wales has once again contacted me, and tells me that plans are underway for a Torchwood soundtrack album at the end of the year, to tie in with season two. Nothing's confirmed, of course - but when more details are released be sure to check back here to learn more about this potentially exciting project.
The source also drops a few hints about the direction of Torchwood season two. Apparently we can expect to see a lot more of Owen, as the Weevil influence begins to take hold of him. What this will mean for his place on the Torchwood team? Your guess is as good as mine (well, saying that, your's will probably be ten times better than my silly guesses!)
One final thing to add to this rather random post; John Barrowman was a no-show on the Richard and Judy show today (to the disappointment of us Woodies). Instead his replacement turned out to be that weird guy off of "Desperate Housewives" with the perfect teeth. You know the one...
Doctor Who: Smith and Jones (as if you need reminding) airs Saturday @ 7pm.

Isn't JB supposed to be on the Richard and Judy Show Thursday? Today is Tuesday.
Yeah. That's what it says on your calender thingy.
It was *supposed* to be today...
JB.com now confirms Thursday :)
Damn it... "A lot more of Owen" that's the last thing I want he was overexposed in Series 1 (and frankly I just don't like the character, the man is a berk and a rapist).

jb.com has ALWAYS confirmed Thursday. Face it, you blooped. Maybe you should cut back on the tablets, or take them :))
No, JB was never supposed to be on the Richard and Judy Show today. I read the info a few days ago on JB.com and they were saying Thursday, 29th March. Guess you just got it wrong.
no offense, but you should check your info more carefully - panicky posts about TW "production problems" that turn out to be way out of proportion with reality, and quite a bit of unreliable or plain wrong info in the last couple of months.
JB was always scheduled for that show for Thursday.
Oh for christ sake, you morons take it too seriously. It's only an internet blog... if a guy makes one tiny mistake it's nothing to moan about. Seriously... go open the window and let some fresh air in people.
I'll just sit here taking my pills shall I? Clearly I'm out of touch with reality in some way; because you 'sane' humans never make mistakes do you?
And for anybody complaining, this isn't the onlt Torchwood based website out there. You could always check into the GallifreyOne forums - but they are far less reliable than this place.
Go on, I challenge you; stop moaning about the site, or go do something about it and create your own website with 100% acurate information and without the occassional mistake.
Harder than it looks, isn't it?
Anybody got any water to wash down the pills...?
Ooooh, touchy! If you don't want people to comment (and offer the occasional correction when you get your information wrong) you should turn off the comments feature.
I always love it when people spend hours posting on internet blogs accusing everyone *else* of having lost touch with reality. Open the window, indeed.
Yes, there are other sites and blogs focused on Torchwood and I certainly wouldn't say that OG is any more or less accurate than this blog.
Tell you what, I won't turn off the comments box if you agree to stop hiding behind that "anonymous" identity.
Be a man (or woman!) and when you have something to say, don't be afraid to let us know who's saying it.
There have been some minor production issues that changed some schedules. So to the best of my knowledge that info is correct.
Let's not fight over Dick and Judy, just tune in tomorrow and leave this ugliness behind us.
I for one appreciate when folks notify me of my innacuracies in the comments. Direct but polite goes a long way.
Jack,
Don't let the anonymous trolls get ya down. It's a sad but true thing that most people only ever take the time to write negative stuff.
You guys do a lot of good work here, and I'm grateful for it. I'm sure there are plenty of others who feel the same way.
(a DIFFERENT anonymous)
Jack,
I reckon this website rocks and is the best place for all the Torchwood goss out there, don't let the negative moron(s) get you down. You rock for spending so much time and effort into a truly fantastic and informative website.
(Another anonymous, who doesn't spend all her time critising a great website.)
PS - To the mean person who's insulting this website. Stop critising it - it's amazing and you really need to find better ways to spend your time.
PPS - And anyway, if you thought it was so rubbish, mean anonymous, you would have stopped visiting the site ages ago.
What!!??? A weevil influence??? Weevils aren't like werewolves are they? I mean, if you get bitten by one you don't become one do you? Wow, now that sounds cool, it would be pretty cool if Owen turned out to be part weevil, strange, yes, but certainly cool. Not that it's really all that unexpected after the end of Combat. Oh, and to the person who said Owen is a rapist, he isn't all the girls do agree to having sex with him, but I will admit he is a sex-maniac, a bit of an arsehole sometimes, oh, and also a twat. But hey. No-one's perfect. I do think that there should be a bit more Tosh and Ianto though. And perhaps the books should focus on some of the other characters apart from Gwen, because although she is my fave character, they're a team and there isn't meant to be a leading actor really.
