Torchwood This Week

The weekly guide to Torchwood transmissions.

Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thisweekindoctorwho .

USA - BBC America has revised their schedule (again). Here is the new Torchwood
plan.
Tonight - Countrycide and Greeks Bearing Gifts (Ashes To Ashes Series 2 removed
from schedule)
May 9th - Captain Jack Harkness and End Of Days (end of primetime run, Primeval
returns May 16)
May 23rd - End Of Days and Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (Torchwood replaces the 6PM
Doctor Who block outside of prime time)
May 30th - Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang and To The Last Man

Torchwood is coming to the countries in the Scandinavian region of Europe.
Series 1 airs Mondays starting 8 June.

As for Torchwood Series 3 - no schedule yet. The assumption is still June or July. 5 nights from either Monday to Friday or Sunday to Thursday (my money's on Sunday to Thursday). BBC America, UKTV in Australia, and all other networks will have to accomodate BBC One in the UK and how that network wants to air the episodes.

Corrections and updates are welcome at torchwood-owner@yahoogroups.com , TWIDW
on AIM, bfelliott on Twitter, and thebfe on Yahoo Messenger.
