If this had been the norm for Torchwood, it would have lasted far longer than it did.

@dr103 Agree but Torchwood was very human, very character driven much of the time which is why much of it was very good.

I wonder how Jack would relate. He's a 51st century man living in the 21st century due to being stuck in the 19th century after coming back from the 2002nd century

[@sirpiesmasher8482]

[@FilmandTVFan]

Honestly, this is one of my favourite episodes of anything... The concept is so interesting and down to earth that any alien monster would have ruined this beautifully written 45 minute drama. In a way "Time" is the monster at least in John Ellis's case (unfortunately 😢) Absolutely wonderful episode overall!

[@Matheus21video]

It was Just Like the Weeping Angels, except was the Oposite Of it. Great Episode.

[@darklight6921]

i would love to jump forward in time. the angels just sounds terrible.

[@kevinwaag9976]

I actually think they made this 'the humans out of time' a lot better than how doctor who does it. I mean they all are civilians,the difference could arguably be because they choose to go with the doctor and have the possibility to come back as they don't and are stuck.

[@Bleg94]

kevin waag the difference is, for the doctor everything seems to be an adventure or a journey since he basically lives out of time and only temporary stays with a companion, he can‘t really understand those emotions, but the torchwood team is born and lives in the same era ... well ofc not jack^^

[@Srade2412]

@@Bleg94 but also because Jack knows what its like to be in the wrong time after the doctor ditched him and he got trapped in the 1800s

[@Spindler2007]

Seeing that it was in the historical records that the plane disappeared so it makes sense that the plane disappearing through the rift became a fixed moment in time.

What I like about this story is you can see Jack relates to them slightly, what with him being a man out of his time.

[@pantherz9103]

This is my favourite episode of Torchwood and probably one of my favourite episodes of anything because it is very heartbreaking but very powerful and I love these kind of time travel episodes and people out of time episodes.

"I will look after the ladies" incredible old fashioned values, because he would have felt the need /obligated to do so at the time as every/most men had female loved ones such as mothers.sisters, daughters, wives etc.

[@joshuabarrett2305]

ah yes the 50s and 60s, the only time men had close female relationships

[@FalonGrey]

@@joshuabarrett2305 the point was that the 50s views are so different from now that the guy doesn't even question looking after two female strangers, even though they're all out of their own time. If they came from a later decade, he probably wouldn't have had the same values.

Why is torch wood making a comeback

[@edmundprice5276]

Cause it was such a good and beloved series that only ended due to budget cuts

[@gorillaau]

@@edmundprice5276 it allowed the Doctor Who universe on earth to be explored in greater detail. It should not have been scrapped. Probably too late to bring back unless with another main cast.

[@ninjadudeofficial]

@@edmundprice5276 I think it was a combination of scheduling and budget cuts. Russell T Davies went on to do other things, as did others. But I imagine the comeback is a mix of it being back on iPlayer, Jack appearing in Doctor Who again and just that it never quite died. Even with no more telly there have been loads of audios and such since
