1. What the HELL ARE THOSE 456. 2. BRING BACK IANTO! Also i just had a thought, if we threw Jack to the sun and burnt his cinders...would he come back? This is the best pic of the 456 yet-  |

Guh that final episode was amazing and so heart strikening (if thats a word?) This is the review i posted on the Torchwood comm:
I think it was brillant things wern't calmed down and the truth wasn't hidden, RTD gave real life and maybe some people don't like that and don't agree with it on T.V but it is what it is and it is very unique and in my view brillant for a show to do this. People hide away from the truth to much in T.V. This time Torchwood didn't.
This was amazing, i thought, the best episode i have probably ever seen of any show. It wasn't any of this wishy washy drama that creeped around the truth of what would happen, too scared to show it. They gave us the truth and what would most likely happen. They gave us moral decisions that most shows would avoid. The gave us for lak of better words an epic story and more.
I really felt sorry for Jack though having to make a choice like that is just wrong, how much can they put him through? ( i kept thinking the kid was going to gasp back to life like Jack though).
The end scene i loved i think this scene in itself shows that Jack isn't as cold hearted as he seemed to be, the song Stop and Stare seems to come to mind. He knew enough to admitt he had to go that he couldn't deal with basically as the song said he has become what he can't be. The fact that he blames hiself for so much and although he makes the 'right' decisions he hates himself for it and i think that makes Jack more of a hero in my view. He was wise enough to know he had to go and he knew his limits knew he couldn't take it anymore. All ion all i think this shows how much heart Jack does have and how much this effects him.
I do actualy like Johnson and John they grew on me and i think this story has made me like Jack even more.
It was amazing preformance and an amzing piece of writing that stricked so many powerful emotions and thoughts that most shows daren't step near.
The only problem at the moment i am doubtful about series 4 and what characters it will have in it. I would love for there to be one though even if it is just Jack and a new team including some characters like Johnson and Lious. I have a feeling it may be the Doctor who convinces him to return if he does.
And just because this song was stuck in my head and to me represents jack's feelings through the last scene here are some of the lyrics:
This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can u see what I see

He had to kill his own grandson! R.I.P Ianto, Stephen, Tosh and Owen The final one was the worst, i couldn't stop crying! I cried when Ianto died and Jack said he's offer the world for Ianto's life, but there was just something about the way Stephen trusted Jack so much not to ask questions or run away. |

It was so sad when Ianto died I'm glad they're making a 4th series, but it won't be the same without the rest of the team  But oh well, at least I'll still be able to oggle at Jack, haha! |

But oh well, at least I'll still be able to oggle at Jack, haha! That's the small bit of comfort that I'm holding onto lol I cried a little bit when Ianto died even though at the time I hadn't seen series one or two and didn't realise just how amazing he truly is. I can see myself in floods of tears next time I watch Children Of Earth |

Gah, I know this thread has been untouched for several months, but it's the earliest Torchwood one I could find on the board. Last weekend (or the weekend before, my memory fails) I went to a convention in Brisbane called Supanova, it was sooooooo much fun, but the main reason I went was to meet........  Mr Gareth David-Lloyd! Wooot! |

They could bring Ianto back by way of another reality... you know, bring an Ianto from a different reality into ours.
Just a random but relevant thought. =)
I miss him!!

I wish that they could but Gareth said in his seminar at Supanova that Russell T Davies has no intention of bringing Ianto back. Then a fan said, "What if we point a gun at him?" Gareth laughed.
Maybe that is the answer... We must threaten to shoot Russell!

I agree with the death threats to Russel. Sure, great guy, great guy, but he needs to be delt with. He slowly ruined Who over four years and now hes doing TW.
