How did you go? Did you get to season 3?

[@zarbixii]

Um, actually, the Torchwood Institute is named after the Torchwood Estate, where Queen Victoria was saved from a werewolf by The Doctor in S2E2 'Tooth and Claw'. This prompted her to create the organisation to defend Earth against alien threats, including The Doctor. In the real world, it derives from an anagram, but not in the universe of the show. Since the question refers to Torchwood as an organisation, not a show, then the in-universe explanation would be the correct one.

[@TheBenole]

Wrong. because the question specifically says "reference" it is implied to refer to how the show got it's name. Not how the organization was named.

[@666JPF]

Defend England and the British Isles not the earth.

[@Solorflare99]

TheBenole Sorry you didn’t say Um, Actually. You get no points.

[@Domihork]

Um, actually, not only that but also it's NOT a goverment organization. Torchwood is supposed to stand outside of the law independent of the goverment (and although I don't recall it being specifically said out loud, it can be inferred the institute should be loyal only to the Queen or the King because as it was already mentioned, the Torchwood Institute does not deffend the Earth, they deffend the British Empire)

[@TempFel3]

Bismuth Crystal while it isn’t under the government’s jurisdiction, Torchwood still serves the British government, as Queen Victoria establishes the organisation to protect the British empire from alien threats, so Torchwood is a government agency.

[@geoffreypeterson8903]

Um actually, the Heart Ring is by far the most powerful ring as its wielder can (amongst many other powers) empathetically control anything with a "good heart". While that makes the enemies immune as their hearts are pure evil, he can control any animals to fight with him. In one of the comics, he single-handedly destroyed a bad guy's entire factory by summoning a stampede of rhinos, elephants, and all other animals of the jungle. Also, do you know who also have good hearts? ALL OF THE OTHER PLANETEERS. If Ma-Ti wanted, he could make all of the others his slaves. The only reason he doesn't he because Ma-Ti is the most pure hearted human on the planet and would not use it for evil, hence why Gaia chose him to wield the most powerful of the rings. Furthermore, the Heart Ring has other powers over the other rings, such as being able to restore them if they lose power (from coming in contact with pollution) or to find them if they are lost (which anybody who has spent hours looking for lost keys knows is the GREATEST SUPERPOWER EVER). tl;dr: Do NOT mess with Heart.

[@seancampbell6292]

It also is the only ring that can directly communicate with Gaia, and it also has the power to reveal the identity of someone disguising themselves. all in all, the Heart Ring is the most useful and controllable of them all.

Um Actually, Torchwood is not set up to fight Supernatural threats. They are set up to fight Paranormal or Alien threats. Supernatural implies things like ghosts and magic and none of that exists in the Dr. Who universe.

Um, actually, the heart ring is not like Professor X. It allows the wielder to communicate or empathize with another creature's heart. Like "touch their heart" idea. He can't control, just impart his thoughts and emotions to another being if that being is good of heart. He doesn't command or control dolphins, he's imparting his feelings and thoughts and *asking* them to do something. It's closer to the point of view gun than it is to professor X.

Um Actually, Torchwood as shown in their show was not founded in the victorian period and was not a government organisation. The original torchwood was founded by Victoria, but the organisation was replaced but Torchwood 2, which was based in canary wharf. This was destroyed after the incident S2E13 of Doctor Who, and Captain Jack founded a new organisation, Torchwood 3. It is not government affiliated (The in universe government organisation to deal with these threats is UNIT)

[@turtleextra4128]

2:29 actually it’s the name of the house that Queen Victoria was staying in when the doctor saved her and she decided to create touchwood

[@jessica-mh3os]

the name of Torchwood itself was used by RTD as a cover to keep the new series secret. he liked the name and used it for the spin off. the origin in the show is torchwood house from tooth and claw, in which queen Victoria created the organisation after encountering the doctor. side note: torchwood is not a government organisation. the intro LITERALLY says "outside the government". side side note: it doesn't investigate the supernatural, it investigates the extraterrestrial.

[@howtosummonalemon2767]

I have to Um, Actually everyone who's "Um, Actually-ing" the Torchwood one: the Torchwood thing actually pre-dates any episode even mentioning Torchwood. Doctor Who IS an anagram of Doctor Who, but because Russel T. Davies hid the 2005 series' tapes under that name, so as to keep any information under wraps. He grew so fond of the anagram that when asked to do a spinoff he kept the name.

[@courtney-ray]

I love her Darkwing Duck reference at the intro!😃

[@KayAwoooo]

Um, Actually, while you explained the behind-the-scenes reasoning,Torchwood's name is, in-show, clearly based on its first base of operations, Torchwood House (aristocratic residence). And goes back to Elizabethan times (the ep with the "witches" at Shakespeare's Globe)

[@gammon9871]

Um actually in terms of the lore of the show the name Torchwood doesn't come from nowhere it's actually named after the Torchwood estate which is the setting for the series two episode Tooth and Claw and Queen Victoria gives Torchwood its name because of the alien encounter she has at the house.

I have never yelled at my phone so much than during the Torchwood question

[@shammer08]

Umm actually, Torchwood wasn't the working title. It was originally the anagram that they used to disguise the tapes for Doctor Who when they were first making the series to hide it from people trying to steal the tapes. They ended up using the name for the spin-off series as an homage to that.

Um, actually, there's a TON of evidence that suggests that Nintendo knew they were intending a three-way split timeline as early as OoT. Neither the adult nor child timelines could have possibly lead to A Link to the Past, because Ganon had the completed Triforce during the Sealing War, and as of OoT's release, they had explicitly defined the timeline as being OoT->ALttP->LA->Z1->Z2. Nintendo has ALWAYS had a pliable timeline for Zelda games, where they have a defined order but might be shifted around slightly to fit newer games in or fix continuity errors (the best and only example I can think of being the movement of OoX to being a different Link than the one in ALttP, because Link in those games had never met Zelda), they just didn't RELEASE it until SS was coming out.

[@michaeltrupiano100]
