Adam, Tommy & Tosh

The BBC Press Office TV listings have received their weekly update, and now covers the television week 9th - 15th February. During that particular week, the fifth episode of Torchwood's new series debuts on BBC Two. It's called "Adam" and you can read the BBC's official synopsis below:

"An alien with the power to change memories infiltrates Torchwood. It's up to the team to save themselves before it's too late. With Captain Jack caught up in memories of his lost family, and Gwen struggling to remember Rhys, it takes Jack's love of Ianto to reveal the truth. But there's always a price to pay."

There's also news on Torchwood Declassified (from the official site) regarding this Thursday's episode. Here's a brief snippet, "Naoko Mori (Toshiko) talks about her character's doomed affairs, including a liaison with an alien lesbian and her latest fling with a frozen soldier. John Barrowman (Captain Jack Harkness), episode writer Helen Raynor and executive producer Russell T Davies also look back on Tosh's previous relationships and reflect on her role across the two series." You can catch the episode after "To the Last Man" this Thursday, BBC Two, from 7:50pm.

Talking of the official site, there's also an interview with "Sleeper" writer James Moran here. His own blog can be found by clicking here.

Finally, DigitalSpy is reporting a story about John Barrowman (lifted from the star's autobiography). It reveals that Barrowman 'outed' himself after an AIDS scare, during the mid-nineties when the star became seriously ill. Needless to say that John Barrowman (thankfully) doesn't suffer from HIV or AIDS.

Found this interesting while browsing sites. This kid is listed as having played "Young Captain Jack" on Torchwood. I don't know if it is from this episode, just thought I'd share.
