BBC Reveal Torchwood Series 2 Details
First Published | 11:24, Monday July 16 2007


The BBC has this morning revealed details of the second series of Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood which, like the parent show, will feature a range of special guest stars.

Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman), Gwen (Eve Myles), Owen (Burn Gorman), Tosh (Naoko Mori) and Ianto (Gareth David-Lloyd) all return as the close-knit team of investigators solving alien and human crimes as they delve into the underworld of modern day Cardiff.

The high-octane storylines, filmed in and around Cardiff, include Torchwood's encounter with a rogue Time Agent; a tragic time-slip from World War One; and a memory-thief who uncovers long-forgotten secrets among the entire team

As well as Doctor Who star Freema Agyeman the series will see appearances by James Marsters who starred as Spike, the punk-goth vampire, in Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel and Alan Dale who is currently appearing in Ugly Betty as Bradford Meade. Dale is also well known for his roles in The O.C., Lost, The West Wing and as Jim Robinson in the Australian hit soap Neighbours.

Current speculation that I've seen sugggests that James is in the series opener as the above-mentioned rogue time agent. The pic accompanying the article (click on the link to see it) seems to suggest that...not to mention that James' character has a thing with Captain Jack 😉
 
i cannot begin to tell you how excited i am about this. i read in a newspaper today that apparently the ep James appears in is quite violent.
 
Can't he just be shirtless?

Uh...did I say that out loud? 😛

I admire his acting ability almost as much as his washboard abs 😉

We've only just started getting Torchwood in Australia so I'm guessing it's going to be awhile....aw phooey.
 
thanks for the info. i may have to actually watch an episode of this show...i must admit i am not a fan. i'll even go as far to call it bad television. but if james marsters and alan dale are in it, its worth another watch.
 
Wow cool, i actually like torchwood, i'll admit its no buffy/angel but still captain jack (phwooaar) and now james marsters, should be pretty cool
 
The chances of my getting to see that are nil. Torchwood since the cannabalism episode is in a 12:30 time slot, ratings are likely to be crap.
I don't think the TV station will fork lots of money for a show to be a space filler, so I won't get to see him and I won't buy the DVDs as there are a lot of other contentious issues. I liked to see James in other roles, but any roles in Torchwood are wasted for me.
 
Hmm perhaps I'll watch give the show another try now.

I think they should try to get the whole cast of Buffy to guest star. In separate episodes, of course. 🙂
 
[Whedonesque] (SPOILER) More new clips from Torchwood series two episode one.

Three video clips from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang guest starring James Marsters as Captain John Hart. The first clip is new.
With a week to go till the first episode of Torchwood season two airs in the UK the pace is hotting up in more ways than one 🙂
Major spoilers.

Torchwood is like an acid trip. It's just...weird. And way out there.

Or so I would imagine it's like an acid trip...never done acid before.
 
Just saw that season 2 is starting on BBC America Jan. 26th... They even have the pix with John and James on their home page.

Awesome!! Torchwood is so completely different from Doctor Who and yet I love them both! haha I can't wait to see James on it. I'm sure he'll dazzle and impress us 😀
 
James talked about his appearance during a session at dragon*con. His comment was something like "how do you gals stand kissing us, with the stubble and all." What I've read from people who've seen the episode - it is hot hot hot! I can't wait.
 
I thought it was going to be bad enough that Martha was ruining Torchwood but James too....its like my nightmare season.

While I know it will make me unpopular I really don't like the guy, and Martha is so bland. I adore my Dr Who (have my own SS and Psychic Paper) and Torchwood, here is hoping Jack will continue to produce!
