ONE FROM THE ROAD...

Why does shit always go down in a week when I leave the country?


See, the thing about a certain faction of fans is that they seem to equate Gareth's stated love of working on Torchwood with a stated desire to stay on Torchwood for any length of time.

Having said that, spoiler make me do sadfayce, even though I'd been predicting and expecting it. :(

I now give spoiler about 97% certainty. *sniff*

(Edit to clarify, no, Gareth hasn't said anything, though, in true Gareth style, he didn't exactly NOT say anything either. I am referring to a lovely holiday-style time I spent reading and researching spoilers on the OG, where about three seperate sources are now citing having read and even seen spoiler play out on screen. Bum.)

Edit to add quickly before I swan off: Not that I'm going to say I told you so or anything. I would never do that.

Hrm. I don't doubt it's a possibility, I just can't get over what an odd artistic choice it is to slaughter more than half the cast - and such an effective cast - in such a short space of time. This isn't a huge ensemble show like Lost which can just absorb that - they're looking at substantially changing the landscape of the show. Well, they've already done that, and now they're going to do it even more.

Personally I won't believe it until I see it, and we must also remember that death in SF sometimes doesn't last as long as real death.
