more Torchwood

So I skipped episode 2, and watched episode 3 at lunch, which is The One With Gareth In. Quite apart from my usual drooling fangirl "it's got Gareth in, of course it's good" tendencies, I liked it. In fact, I'd have liked it even without the ever-so-subtle fanservice scene in the shooting gallery. It's got my favourite actor, and it's got pretty boys, and it's even got an entertaining story (I'll do without "plausible" so long as it's entertaining). All in one episode. If there are a few decent episodes I can live with the occasional rubbish one. As Chris Boucher said at a panel some years back, with the time pressure on making a series you'll always get one or two dud episodes each season.
