Broadcast date

No offence to "Den of Geek", or to John Barrowman for that matter, but we cannot possibly suggest any broadcast dates for Series 4 at this time. They don't even have a production schedule yet. 23skidoo 00:48, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Cartmel?

Says Andrew Cartmel is writing "The Jinx" for series 4. Should it go in the rumours folder, or the official writers folder? N3onkn1ght 04:13, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

• Better not either. Just because a script has been submitted or commissioned doesn't mean it'll get made. See Stephen Fry and Moris Farhi. 23skidoo 03:54, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

Article premature?

I'm starting to wonder if the article is premature. Barrowman (per [1]) appears to be recanting whether there will be a Series 4. If he's doing Desperate Housewives he might not be available, and there's also the question of an American series. I'm not quite read to toss a proposed deletion tag on this, because there is some information to be had (i.e. the Cartmel item above), but there is a lot of unsourced speculation here, too. We should seek consensus but I would be happy to perhaps condense this all down into a subsection of the main Torchwood article until the BBC actually announces whether it's making it. We know Sarah Jane is going into production, but there's been little said for certain about Torchwood. 23skidoo 03:53, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

I hope it does!

I'm a massive fan of Torchwood so I hope it comes. Trikster87, 12:47, 6th April 2010 (UTC)

US version?

Please, please, please never let this happen. I know what happened to the superbly brilliant Life on Mars when it got 'ported' to the US, and the result is just... horrible. US versions of British shows almost always suffer like that... -- Sorceror Nobody 18:58, May 15, 2010 (UTC)

Confirmed

I've added that the BBC has confirmed this series, and that it isn't a US remake but instead will be a new series that will feature the original team in the US and elsewhere. --Golden Monkey 17:53, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Yes!

I'm pleased to hear Torchwood's returning for a ten-part series. Trikster87

Matt Smith

I have heard rumors that Matt Smith as The Doctor may appear in the new series of Torchwood, is there anything confirming that?
