The BBC website today reports that the extraterrestrial-combatting Torchwood team will return for a new series courtesy of BBC Cymru Wales, BBC Worldwide and the US Starz Network.
After the much-debated deal with the Fox network fell through, it seems 10 episodes have now been commissioned, to be written by a team of writers headed up by series creator and geek household name Russell T. Davies.
The focus will be shifting from the streets of Cardiff to encompass more global storylines – hopefully this new series will have the budget to deal with this intriguing development.
The BBC also confirms that John Barrowman and Eve Myles will return and will be joined by “new faces”.
