Torchwood by proxy

The whole "not having a TV" thing? It's still fine. There are rarely any shows I want to watch, the only one currently that I'd like to be watching is Torchwood, and the DVDs will be out soon. I know that feedback has been, shall we say, mixed? But overall, I'm looking forward to watching it just to find out if it's as good/bad as people are saying. Given that it seems to be the same people saying both good and bad, doubly so.

So, instead of actually watching it, directly, I watch it by proxy; thanks friends list! From [livejournal.com profile] rowanberries weekly liveblog, through to [livejournal.com profile] calapine's more reasoned analysis, there's always a good summary fairly quickly. Then others, such as [livejournal.com profile] nhw will review it, and I get a bit more of a fix. But there's always a bit of a delay. Then [livejournal.com profile] elephantfeed updates. Like it just did:
I said before that Torchwood hadn't decided what it was about yet. In this episode, I think it has. Torchwood is about Life after Death.
So, Richard thinks it's all about life after death, that this episode linked the series together and made the rest make sense, and also told me that Gwen is played by Gwyneth's actress. This I didn't know. So suspicions of a link between them would make more sense, and Richard thinks Jack thinks Gwen is in some way special. Anyone out there got a differing opinion?
