John Barrowman has told TV Choice that he is ecstatic and thrilled about Torchwood’s return. "The show is now going to represent the BBC and the UK worldwide even more, and Starz, the American network, thought we were good enough to take this on board to collaborate and co-produce it with the BBC. It's just incredible that we've still got Russell T. Davies, Julie Gardner and Jane Tranter on board. I'm ecstatic. The fans who have stuck by waiting to hear are going to be heavily rewarded."

Torchwood begins filming in January for broadcast later in the year, and after Children of Earth, quite possibly one of the best Whoniverse stories of all time, it’s no doubt that fans are very excited for the new series to begin!
