It should be starting on June 15th 2009 though - as long as nothing changes!!! Starting time is 9:00pm. It is called Children of the Earth, and is being broadcasted over five consecutive days. Each episode will be one hour long rather than the usual fifty minutes. Definate members of the cast are John Barrowman (Captain Jack) Eve Myles (Gwen Cooper) and Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones.) Here is the official Series 3 page, which shows previews and news about Children of the Earth. http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood/
Torchwood has already been shown on the BBC multiple times. The show actually started out on BBC 3 on the 22nd of October 2006.
BBC 1
John Barrowman has said that there might be a torchwood series 4 in the new year (2009) ------ This statement is false. Torchwood season 4 was said to return in January 2010, but I am not sure when it will show on BBC America.
the bbc have annouced a fourth series so technically yeh
The expected date is Summer of 2011.
Yes it is. The BBC have confirmed a 4th series.
Yes.Dark Talk is the fictional pirate radio station that "transmitted" clues for the "Torchwood Mission Game." The videos were released on the BBC's Torchwood site during Series Two. They are currently archived at the related link below.
Captin Jack is a fictional man, from the BBC series Doctor Who and Torchwood.
No there is not a real Torchwood house. The term "Torchwood" was created by Russell T Davis and is an anagram of "Doctor Who". The BBC created a Torchwood house website to assist in promotional activity around both Doctor who and Torchwood. However it is a manufactured site and there is definitely no real Torchwood House.
In 2006 the first series of Torchwood was broadcast on BBC3 and BBC HD. In 2008, the second series was broadcast on BBC2 and BBC HD. In 2009, the third series (Children of Earth) was broadcast on BBC 1. It was also shown on other channels in Australia, America and Canada. In 2011, the fourth series (Miracle Day) was broadcast on BBC1 and BBC HD along with Starz in the USA. The future and possibility of another series is currently unconfirmed.
Torchwood 4 starts filming in January 2011, so maybe some time in 2011?
It could be at any time in mid-late 2009, due to it being hard to find a week when BBC One isn't airing anything all week. As it is a 5 part series shown over one week, the official date hasn't been confirmed yet. ---- BBC America just aired the supposed 3rd season of Torchwood last week. It is called Torchwood: Children of Earth. But this is a 5 part mini-series special event.
