john-on-torchwoods-future-the-50th-anniversary

John Barrowman spoke to MTV Geek during his attendance at Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo this weekend.

He talked about what the future holds for Torchwood, saying he’d “be back at the drop of a hat”. “I love Captain Jack, and me and Eve are like brother and sister on set. We have a great time together,” he said. “Jack’s an iconic figure. He’s a hero. Wherever I am, as long as it works out in my schedule, I will come back. At the end of Miracle Day there’s a cliffhanger, so who knows what will happen?”

He went on to discuss his hopes to be involved in Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary next year, admitting: “It would be a shame if Captain Jack wasn’t there. He was such a big figure and presence within the show itself, and also within Torchwood. But it’s not up to me. It’s just one of those things. I guess you’ll have to sit back and watch this space.”

Would you like to see Torchwood back, and should Jack return for the landmark year…?

Today, it is one year since Elisabeth Sladen passed away.

Although she is gone, she is certainly not forgotten, and she still lives on in our hearts as one of the Doctor’s most loved companions, Sarah Jane Smith. Joining the series in 1973, Elisabeth’s adventures through time and space went on to span decades, and they are are sure to continue on in our memories for decades to come. In 2007, she was introduced to a new generation in The Sarah Jane Adventures, proving life on Earth can be just as exciting.

Relive one of many classic Sarah Jane moments, and share your best memories, below.

jack-goes-on-a-holiday-in-a-new-torchwood-audio

Captain Jack Harkness goes on a well deserved holiday in a brand new original Torchwood audiobook out next month.

In Red Skies by Joseph Lidster, our hero journeys to Cotter Paluni’s World, ‘Devil’s World,’ a planet which is surrounded by a deadly scarlet lightning and completely cut off from the rest of the universe. However, Jack’s attempt to take a break from Torchwood backfires, because he soon discovers that the inhabitants of the planet worship the organisation.

Before he can investigate further, he is arrested for murder. Just who is out to get Jack?

Red Skies will be released 3rd May 2012. It is read by John Telfer. Pre-order it today!

eve-says-gwens-character-has-a-wonderful-mix

In a new interview with Radio Times Eve Myles briefly talks about what she enjoys most about playing the part of Gwen Cooper in Torchwood.

“She’s a full-on action hero, and I get to do all that fun stuff because I do all my own stunts,” she explains. “I also get to do great domestic scenes, because I am a married woman with a baby. So I get to save the world and be the girl next door. So the mix there is wonderful.” She also reveals she’d love to be in Sherlock, describing the series as “really hot”.

Eve has called for a Torchwood movie next year “to draw a line under” the franchise.
