Expect Relationships To Develop In 'Torchwood' Season 2

“Torchwood” may only be about to hit the screens in America, but already British fans of the show are eagerly looking forward to the second season that is set to premiere in early 2008 on BBC Two.

News on the second season of the series has already begun to leak out, with short clips of production appearing on YouTube and some snippets of details unofficially hitting the Internet. What seems to be the main angle for “Torchwood” Year 2, however, is to fix any remaining problems from the first season while also bringing some more depth to the main players of the series.

Among these major developments is the budding and very-much hinted at relationship between Capt. Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) and Ianto Jones (Gareth David-Lloyd) which will take a more prominent role in the second season. And what’s more, it may include some more "stopwatch fun."

“There’s nothing I think I’m allowed to say actually,” David-Lloyd told SyFy Portal’s Alan Stanley Blair during the recent Collectormania convention in Glasgow, Scotland. “I’ve got to be careful because they haven’t given me a list of things I’m allowed to say yet so I’ve got to be careful otherwise they will get me into trouble. The only thing I will say is that the Jack and Ianto thing develops, and from what it is it’s pretty fun so there’s that.”

The series is set to be made up of more standalone installments with no real two-part episodes. However, halfway through the season, former “Doctor Who” companion Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman) will be making a three-episode appearance before returning to the mother series.

"Doctor Who" continues to air on the SciFi Channel with its third season in the United States and will return to BBC One on Christmas Day while "Torchwood" premieres on BBC Two in early 2008. Its first season will premiere in the United States on Sept. 8 as part of BBC America’s Supernatural Saturday lineup.
