What's it called?
"Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang"
Who's it credited to?
Chris Chibnall, writer ("Day One", "End of Days") and Ashley Way, director ("Captain Jack Harkness")
What do we know?
Captain Jack Harkness returns to Cardiff, and his Torchwood team, just in time to help them tackle an alien Blowfish. Then the team have to deal with Captain John Hart, an old friend of Jack's, who's in town to collect some bounty. But things go wrong, and John goes on a rampage.
Major guest stars?
James Marsters ("Buffy", "Smallville") plays John Hart. Tom Price returns as "PC Andy" - a role he played three times last series. Oh, and Kai Owen - though surely he's a regular cast member by now?!
Reviewing the reviews
Most have been pretty positive, actually. They compare the show to series one, and write that there's been a vast improvement. And, apparently, it's funnier too - so we should all be in for a treat!
When's it on?
Tonight, on BBC Two at 9pm. It's repeated at 11:30pm over on BBC Three, and then next Wednesday (in a family friendly edit) on BBC Two, from 7pm.
What about America?
"Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang" is scheduled to air on BBC America on Saturday 26th January from 9pm. Then you can catch it in High Definition, on HD-Net, from February 11th.
Look to the future...
Next week's episode is called "Sleeper" and features alien invaders trying to conquer planet Earth by stealth. Then, in "To the Last Man" Toshiko meets her ideal man - but he's more Austin Powers than your traditional metrosexual.
Excitement level?
**** - the team are back; what more do you want?

Are we going to have a chat right after the programme like we did, during the first series?
fantastic stuff loved the coming soon and woop captain john is back again
Just watched it and ......WOW!
Russell T Davies is back on form and I love the new twists to the characters! John Barrowman displays his brilliant acting and that cliffhanger at the end.....?!?!?!?! Unbelievable.
That was awesome!!! Better than last series by the looks of things!
Chris wrote the ep not russell. Also Ash also directed end of days. Check your facts people.
anonymous... I've checks the facts, and Ashley Way directed *two* episodes of series one. "End of Days" and, what d'you know, "Captain Jack Harkness"!
Geez, and you call yourself a fan ;)
whys he only credited with Captain Jack Harkness in the main window then? Don't know why we bother! Really...
Why is everyone getting so uptight about who wrote the epsiode??? Russell T Davies came up with the program and therefore he is a genius! Calm down people!
I didn't mean that Russell T Davies wrote that particular epsiode, but he did kind of create the show. Don't get angry....
credit where it's due that's all! Tough business this.
And yes Russell is a rather clever chap.
Excitement Level? The Sexual Chemistry between Jack and Gwen is siiiizllling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
