Thanks! Now, about that time machine…
ETA: I hope this doesn’t come across as snarky towards Ms. Burke.
Anyone who’s seen the end of Doctor Who’s * 3rd season knows what time machine you’re talking about.
Which has already been shown on the SciFi Channel.

The thing about Torchwood that makes the show nearly unwatchable, is the way they chose to make the show.
If I’m making an agency to defend the world against the oncomming threats of the universe, I’m gonna recruit from the top of the class. But most of these people are just worthless. They just seem to hire who ever shows up at the door, 7-11 is more selective then these people. Plus they are all weak minded, and are in no way psychologically ready for the job. Captain Jack is okay, not great, but the rest just make no sence why they are there. I don’t expect a whole team of James Bonds as that would be equally unrealistic, but come on.
Maybe it’s a Brit thing I don’t understand, but it’s like making a Justice league with Acuaman and 4 clones of Jimmy Olsen, then playing it straight.
The main Torchwood site was located in London–& destroyed in the Battle of Canary Wharf. (Already shown in the USA on Doctor Who –end of Season 2.) So the Cardiff Torchwood staff is hardly The Best of The Best. Perhaps Torchwood had sent their misfits to Cardiff, to watch what came through the Rift. And stay out of trouble. Hah!
I enjoy the show, but it can be infuriating.
