Editor’s Note

It’s hard to believe that we’ve covered a year already on the website.  It makes me smile that the support for Torchwood is still so strong.  When we initially set up the site, my feelings were that Torchwood wasn’t as strong, but it was something I still loved and I wanted to share that.  Of course the loyalty to John Barrowman was as strong as ever across the fandom but I wondered if Torchwood as a whole was as strong, but after we launched the site, set up the Twitter and Facebook account, the number of fans soon dispelled that worry. 

We’ve met and interviewed a good many of the cast and crew of Torchwood and Doctor Who and the support from the guests for what we’re doing has overwhelmed us. 

This year we’ve seen a great many things, a website dedicated to Eve Myles by her number one fan Molly Lyons, of which we fully support and recommend to everyone to go and follow and join.  We covered an article about the site, and they very kindly recommended us also.  We love that site.

Project: Torchwood broadened its horizons this year by joining DeviantART and LinkedIn. 

We have interviewed so many people from the world of Who and Torchwood that to list them all here would take a good many pages, but each and every person who we talked to made us feel that this is something to keep fighting for, to keep pushing those who sit up at the BBC to #SaveTorchwood and to Keep The Flame Alive!

In Issue 13 we have bumper reviews of Who episodes by our regular team of Who writers, Jeff, Steve and myself.  We have a wonderful article about Kate O’Mara written by Carol Drinkwater, who knew Kate very well. 

We have two wonderful fictional pieces by Sandy Deck and Claudia Lindner, The Soul Catcher – which features Gray, brother of Jack Harkness and his continued series involving Maria and the world of Camelot and Arthur. 

A Night Back in Time by Claudia Lindner tells of the ‘What If’ scenario if Jack Harkness and Toshiko Sato were really stuck in 1941 with no means of getting back immediately, how would they cope in that situation.  It’s a great little piece and definitely worth a read. 

So from all of us, to all of you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the support you have given us, and keep giving us, and we will endeavour to make our 2nd year on the site even more epic.

So without further ado – Welcome to Issue 13! 

~Jack~

  1. Great work guys. You got some awesome interviews here. Steven Savile is one of my favourite sci fi writers for tv.
