"Torchwood" is the spin-off from the 2005 new run of "Doctor Who," also been a comic book and its about a special covert group that investigates and fights supernatural and alien activity. Its had two seasons thats aired on BBC America and also a stand-alone miniseries, called "Children of Earth."

John Barrowman, who plays Captain Jack Harkness, may star if Fox orders "Torchwood" to pilot.

The trade says the American version will contain a global story line instead of more local treats as in the BBC series thats based in Cardiff Wales.




LEEE777 - Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Good thing maybe as it's not a complete reboot or remake by the sounds of it. What do you guys think?
