Quote:Torchwood explores several themes in its narrative, in particular LGBT themes. Various characters are portrayed as sexually fluid; through those characters, the series examines homosexual and bisexual relationships. Although the nature of their sexual flexibility is not explicitly discussed, the characters offer varying perspectives on orientation.

Through the use of repetition, in particular of thematically important lines, and by drawing parallels between characters, the show also delves somewhat into existentialism, the value of human life, and the corrupting nature of power.

Damn. Sounds good

I don't have the BBC either. How do I watch it? Maybe you should take another look at the bittorent thread. Big Grin

RE: Hi! :D
Sure I also love Torchwood, and was pleasantly surprised by the dynamic sexual attitudes all the main characters seem to hold. It gets a bit much sometimes though, I don't think they need to explore it *every* single episode.

Just rent the entire series on DVD, that's what I did.
