DAN: I don't want to go into too many spoilers, but for British fans who've seen "Children Of Earth", the mini-series left us at a definite crossroads. Can you give us any hints as to where we might be going next year? New people? A new set-up?

RTD: No, not really. I mean I do know. Literally, I could sit here and type out the first five scenes. I was having coffee yesterday and I thought "oh, that could happen, then that could happen" and I had the first five scenes done... but I couldn't tell you that. Every year the commissioners come back and they say "we want thirteen episodes" or "we want five episodes". They might want a hologram on the moon next time! I think that's one of the strengths of Torchwood; it's what I always call a "digital weapon". A multi-platform, multimedia thing. It was designed for BBC3 and launched like a missile – it got the highest ratings, still, that BBC3 has ever had. Now it's shifted onto BBC1 and is a major nine o'clock drama series. It's got radio plays, it's got the novels. It really is a "weapon" that can take any shape in the future. I find that really exciting. More good years to come, I hope.

'Torchwood' boss to angry fans: Go watch 'Supernatural'

Torchwood SPOILER ALERT: Stop reading if you have yet to see Part Four of Torchwood: Children of Earth. Everyone else, onward and downward...

Backlash shmacklash. That's Torchwood creator Russell T. Davies' reaction to the outcry over the shocking death of Gareth David-Lloyd's much-loved Ianto in the BBC America miniseries Children of Earth. "It's not a backlash really," he scoffs. "It's just a few people posting online." Those few people may want to fasten their seat belts, 'cause the unapologetic Brit behind the original Queer as Folk also has some strong opinions about why Ianto had to die, what TV show pissed off fans should watch instead (hint: see headline above), and where Torchwood goes from here.

But what the miniseries lacked was heart and HOPE. Even during Battlestar Galactica's darkest days, I still had faith that series would end with hope - and it did. Torchwood CoE was nothing but pain & misery

ich werd nie zu einem fan des mannes werden, aber den aufwand und das herzblut, das er reingesteckt hat, respektiere ich sehr.

Ich lese gerade "The writers tale" von RTD und Ben Cook und bin absolut begeistert!

Es ist spannend, zu verfolgen, wie die Geschichten entstehen, interessant, Einblicke in die Welt hinter den Kulissen zu bekommen und nicht zuletzt ist es stellenweise saukomisch!

Habt ihr es gelesen?

Seit ich "TWT" lese, geht´s mir genauso. Den Wälzer sollte man allen RTD-Hassern um die Ohren hauen.
