German Torchwood fans, RTL2 http://www.rtl2.de wants you to vote! Click the links from their website (have your anti-virus and anti-spam software up to date just in case - my computer froze) to vote for your favorite episode from Series 1 or 2. The winning episode airs Wednesday 9 September at 10:05PM CET (the week after Series 2 finale Exit Wounds premieres in Germany). Then, starting Wednesday 16 September, RTL2 will apparently be the first network to air a dubbed version of Torchwood: Children Of Earth. Expect it to air weekly. RTL2 seems to like Torchwood very well. Maybe they should be introduced to Doctor Who and Sarah Jane. Note - I am not responsible for bleeding ears caused by any type of dubbing. I'm just finding the schedules here. :)

Doctor Who schedule information is in This Week In Doctor Who
