The 21st Century is when it all changes...

In the words of Owen Newitt of The Vicar of Dibley, "Well, bugger me!"

Last night I saw ads on Channel 10 with a rather familiar face.

It was Captain Jack Harkness, that voraciously bi, time-traveling minx!

Those of you who've watched Dr Who would know who he is and how he ties into the story there. Dr Who has been on the ABC here in Australia, though, and I was really hoping they'd be the ones who'd be showing Torchwood - it would make more sense, really. Particularly since there are so many elements to the whole Torchwood Institute that really need a prior viewing on the past two series of Dr Who to make the most sense out of them (eg: battle of Canary Wharf, why Torchwood exists, etc).

But still, the series is rather good, even if it did make me want to do bodily harm to the character of Owen by the end of it. So if you're feeling like some nerdy goodness, definitely watch it :)
