Torchwood Two was one of the Torchwood Institute's four main branches in the 2000s. It was located near the waterfront development on the River Clyde in Glasgow and run by "Old Tartan Archie" (PROSE: The Twilight Streets) By 2016, all branches of Torchwood were inactive due to unfortunate events. (AUDIO: More Than This)

History

Torchwood Two was formed by Archie, who chose to leave Torchwood One to form a new branch in Glasgow. (AUDIO: The Torchwood Archive)

Torchwood Two was well-connected to Torchwood Three, since they contacted Captain Jack Harkness to come to Scotland in connection with a number of deaths in a pub. (COMIC: The Selkie) They also shipped Alice Guppy over to Torchwood Three as they didn't know what to do with her. (PROSE: Risk Assessment)

Torchwood Two closed down prior to 2009, as Agnes Havisham claimed that Torchwood Three was the last remaining branch, with Torchwood One and Four having been destroyed. (PROSE: Risk Assessment) Gwen Cooper later claimed in 2016 that all branches of Torchwood were inactive. (AUDIO: More Than This)

Behind the scenes

The implication of Jack's televised line, "Torchwood Two is an office in Glasgow; very strange man", is that that office is comprised of a single individual. However the reference in COMIC: The Selkie offers no such implication. There, he says that he was simply "contacted by Torchwood Glasgow" and makes no mention of any individuals.
