‘Torchwood’: Where to From Here?
After the brilliant Torchwood: Children of Earth many fans are wondering “where to from here?” Since the series is still airing in the US I won’t give away any spoilers in this article except to point out that if you have any doubts that there will be a fourth season, rest easy.
In an interview with io9, Torchwood and Doctor Who Executive Producer Julie Gardner has confirmed that ideas are already floating around to try and top Children of Earth.
From io9:
She says the BBC will fully try to top the current season of Torchwood, assuming it actually returns in 2010. That’s “part of the fun, and part of the adrenaline rush of working in TV drama.” She adds, “The joy, for me, with Torchwood, is that it’s a show that, every single years, has reinvented itself.” That’s certainly true with the new format of a five-part miniseries airing across five consecutive nights, which Jane Trantor suggested and Russell T. Davies found an exciting challenge.
“We’re kind of having conversations now, about what the next step is, because I do think it’s fun working on a show that reinvents itself constantly. We’re looking at all of this, whether another serial arc, or possibly something else.”
As to whether series four will show the Torchwood team rebuilding after the challenging events of “Children Of Earth,” she says “You go where the story needs to take you. I think it’s always possible to rebuild.”
