John Barrowman Confirms New Torchwood Season

 

With the dramatic endings of season three as well as 'Children of Earth,'  which aired on BBC America back in the spring in which we lost several Torchwood members, it's unclear exactly how Davies is going to revive the Torchwood organization. Captain Jack Harkness (Barrowman) himself had a dramatic departure, so it's pretty much a given that there will be a very dramatic return.

No official production date has been set for the return of the series, but creator Russell T Davies previously indicated he expected it to get started early in 2010.

Barrowman also told the programme that there were no current plans for Captain Jack Harkness to encounter the 11th Doctor, played by Matt Smith, who takes over the title role in Doctor Who from David Tennant in the New Year's Day special, The End of Time, Part 2.

The man who successfully revived one of the oldest
and longest running Sci-Fi series Russell T Davies said: “When I heard who
they cast as the eleventh Doctor my initial reaction was, I was just so jealous
that they would get to work with him.

Executive producer Stephen Moffatt
said: “He’s younger than any Doctor before and younger than any Doctor whose
been suggested in the Press.”

Fellow executive producer Piers Wenger
said: “He has the look of someone who lives before. Those are the sort of
qualities that got him the part and which make him the doctor.”
