I'm struggling with Torchwood. We watched episode 1 of the new series, but even James Marsters couldn't drag us into the swing of it. TBH I feel let down by what they've done with the idea of Torchwood. I wanted it to be dark and edgy and loaded with UST, but they always seem to be too quick to get to the sex without there being any build-up of tension before the characters put out. I so wanted it to be the 'grown up' Dr Who, but I think the fact that they've edited a series of Torchwood for pre-watershed kind of sums up where they're actually taken it as opposed to where it should have gone.

It makes me sad to say this because I'm a huge supporter of home-grown sci-fi, but I'll be watching Reaper on digital while Torchwood is on BBC2.
