Torchwood This Week
April 11, 2009 - Vol 3, No 15
The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

The most common question from Torchwood fans - when will Series 3 (aka Children Of Earth) premiere? The most common answer - the BBC has not decided yet, probably June or July. Wimbledon coverage (simulcast on BBC HD) probably precludes the episodes airing between 22 June and 5 July. I am sure BBC America, SPACE, and UKTV Australia would love to know when the episodes are coming so they can set their own Summer schedules. For now, we wait with no information.
Same with the Radio plays that are apparently going to air on BBC Radio 4 this
year.
