My mother came in for that bit and I had to reassure her that Jack can't die.

I much preferred episode 2 to 1. Funny how all the reviews I saw before the show came out said of the first 3 episodes the first one is the best.

Maybe it's the lack of Barrowman in this one?????

My other half liked it. Only when it was over did we realise this was because there was no Jack.

I think it's more due to Gwen's sudden awesomeness. She for the first time was carring the whole show and it was brilliant. So, Britz CAN write action-girl in the right way, it's just TW's previous writers didn't know how.

BTW, naked Jack is not really a pleasant view, never was and it's keeping going down the hill.

Lack of Jack being an improvement was partially a joke (partially). Agree Gwen (and Ianto) were good in this episode though. Competent and capable. Kind of where season 1 went so hideously wrong.

Although I couldn't agree with you more, I'm in a state of loling that this is a spoiler.

When it had a budget and a serious, if short, commitment?

It was super awesome. I'm kind of waiting for Rhiannon to haul off and hit her brother upside the head for being a bit of a prat but even then, I had it pointed out to me that it's really just extremely consistent characterization of Ianto as a bit detached from others unless he's completely obsessed with that person (Lisa, Jack).

Right about the time Ianto dropped Jack off a cliff !

You could almost see him going, "yeah that's for hating the term 'couple' ", and dusting his hands with a nod.

This is so good. My OH hated the first two series and only watched them because of Gwen and Tosh but he loves this one. It's fabulous and I love it to distraction.

I refuse to read anything bad about any of it!

With you on your Jack sentiments but even he's been damn good so far!

Since they got a bigger budget and better written Gwen.

I can't imagine what the missing factor might have been. lololololololol
