In charge enough to be a hindrance but not enough to be a help. My theory is that Torchwood and the characterisations would be better (though still overegging of the fabulousness of his characters) if he could dedicate more time to it like with Doctor Who. Or conversely if he wasn't involved at all because then someone else might be able to take responsibility for reining in its excesses. While he's officially in charge even if not involved in the detail I don't think that happens which is partly the problem.
