Torchwood keeps burning

The BBC has announced that Torchwood will be commissioned for a second series. In a concession to analogue viewers, series 2 will debut on BBC 2 rather than BBC 3, currently.

Despite my criticism of the series - it ain't no Doctor Who, I will keep watching it as it's the only new SF on free TV. Rather worringly, BBC 2 controller, Roly Keating doesn't seem to agree:

"Torchwood is a brilliant piece of 21st Century fantasy drama." (my emphasis)
