Yeah, I was kinda surprised... and when I say 'surprised', I mean it! SyfyPortal have announcd the nominations for their annual Genre Awards... and Torchwood.tv is up for the "Best Website" award - alongside Whedonesque.com, Sci-Fi Wire, Supernaturaltv.com and Gateworld.

You can vote for the site and for the series itself (if you think either deserve to win!) by clicking here.
In 'proper' news the latest issue of Torchwood the Official Magazine confirms that a CD soundtrack from Torchwood's first two full series (with music arranged by Murray Gold and Ben Foster) will be released later this year.
Doctor Who Online have a preview of the second wave of Torchwood action figures - or more specifically, of Wave 2's "Blowfish" toy. You can see it by clicking here.
Wave 1 of Sci-Fi Collector's new range includes four figures - Captain Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper, the Cyberwoman and a Weevil. Captain John Hart, Ianto Jones, the Blowfish and one other unannounced figure make up the second wave.
You can view a spoiler-packed preview of Saturday's "The Stolen Earth" by clicking here (the link takes you over to sister site Sarah-Jane.tv - woo, plug!). The cross promotion is worth it... Captain Jack flirts with Sarah Jane!
Have a great one, guys and gals!

OMG. SOUNDTRACK. OMG. SOUNDTRACK. OMG. YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
doctorwhotoys.net suggests wave 2 will include the figures mentioned here, plus Tosh and Owen... would it be terribly sad to buy them and make them do naughty things?
Congratulations! It's so good to see a Torchwood site up there for an award! I voted for you guys! Keep up the great work.
