Hi, I'm Chris! Welcome to my channel. I react to movies & tv shows hoping to represent what it's really like to experience them for the first time. If you enjoy, you can support me by liking the video, subscribing to the channel, and letting me know your thoughts in the comments.
This was such an engaging idea for an episode and possibly the best story so far as serving all the characters simultaneously so far. It was interesting how Adam was just there right from the start and then we were off.

You can actually see Adam in the intro of this episode like he is a part of the team. He planted himself in our memory too.

I love when shows do things like this!! Unfortunately I usually am gathering or sharing thoughts during the intro and I didn’t see it! I wish I had.

[@lughtube5596]

I always wonder what Rhys thinks after all this seeing as Gwen doesn't even remember forgetting him

[@HenryDorset]

As I watched this episode for the first time, I at first thought: "Wait, did I skip an episode? Why is there a new character, I don't know?" Well done!

[@CasualNerdReactions]

Understandable thought!!

[@GhostPurple69]

without going into detail, this episode is very much a riff on later-era buffy, with joss whedon (😬😬😬) being a huge influence on the early years of nuwho-and torchwood consciously positioned as the angel to doctor who's btvs

[@Stuart_Cox1969]

Some brilliant acting in this one, especially Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto).

[@StephanieMaireFaith]

The sand is where jack was in his past

[@chrisfraser5088]

Ahhh…I absolutely love this episode. The acting in this one…damn! Powerful stuff.

[@beatricemcgarvey1198]

I’ve never been so early! Love this episode especially the peak into Jack’s backstory

[@andycofin6983]

Jack and Gray, playing on the beach…in the sand.

[@richardd9938]

Adam making Ianto think he was a serial killer problably also fed on the guilt that came from hiding Lisa

[@Spindler2007]

The actor Bryan Dick who played Adam also appeared in an episode of the original UK version of Shameless in Series 3.

[@medafan53]

I think the sand is meant to be from Jack's homeworld.

[@katearcher8514]

Yay! My favourite episode. No luck for Tosh again tho.. I think, the sand has something to do with Jack's memory.

[@CasualNerdReactions]

She has about the worst luck. Maybe it will change before the end of the season…… (says someone who just finished the season👀)

[@Corlwow]

00:29 oh yes, yes you are right (and have probably already seen)

In my first watch of Torchwood over 15 years ago I never was much a fan of Owen as he was always a bit off-putting and odd looking. Rewatching this 15 years later and I am just shocked how much of a 180 my take is on his character. I guess tastes do change as now I look forward to the scenes he is in where’s before all I wanted to do was punch his smarmy little face. Seeing him all dolled up with glasses and acting all dorky and he went from k*** in FMK immediately to f***, though Ianto still will always be ‘m’ for me 🥰

[@GhostPurple69]

i think the glasses, it's two different kinds of insecurity. lots of people technically need glasses but they don't need it enough to wear them except when it's crucial-because, they think it makes them less attractive. the owen from this episode kind of comes from the other angle on the same problem, never feeling he could be attractive long enough to imagine the glasses were a factor. of course in reality glasses almost always make a person 400% hotter-but "normal" owen is definitely the kind of person to buy into the cultural propaganda 😔
