yet a few more bits and bobs have been seeping through about the return of Torchwood with The New World next year. The new season of the show is a co-production between BBC America and US cable network Starz, and show boss Russell T Davies has lured in some impressive writers to work on it.
One of them is Jane Espenson, a veteran of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Battlestar Galactica episodes, and she's been talking to Blastr about how the new season of the show is being put together.
Espenson confirmed that she's writing three of the ten episodes of the show, and that all of the scripts will be written this time before the cameras start rolling. She revealed that "Because of the length of our season and the lead time before production begins, we're actually approaching Torchwood in a very unusual way-all the episodes will be written before any of them begin shooting. "This is allowing us to ‘break' all the episodes at once, with the entire writing staff working together in a very concentrated one-month work session. This is making for a very intense and collaborative process, all guided by Russell's very precise vision. The final product is going to be tightly plotted and lovingly crafted."
