Torchwood TV update!

October 9th, 2008 | Posted in Torchwood, tv

Thanks to various sources, we've been alerted to a major plot twist that occurs early on in Torchwood's five episode long third season, so LOOK AWAY NOW if you're the sort that doesn't want to be SPOILED - you have been warned!

***

Towards the end of the opening episode, written by Russell T Davies, the Hub is destroyed. The sinister agents hunting the Children of Earth are made aware of Torchwood's threat, and set out to destroy the organisation once and for all, to put an end to their investigation. Videos here show us that Gwen and Ianto are caught up in the blast - but survive - whereas Captain Jack is taken away in a body bag by paramedics. Lucky thing he's five billion years immortal, huh?

There's an assortment of photos from filming here - not just the Hub explosion scene, but from throughout the whole of series three. I've resisted posting them here before now because, believe it or not, I'm trying to remain clean this year. For the last two years, I've had plot details thrown at me left, right and centre so I figured, how amazing would it be if I didn't know what to expect?

And apart from this one admittedly mammoth spoiler, I'm still pretty much in the dark!

I'm told that the new series kicks off in the UK and USA with a delay of only a couple of weeks, next February.
