=== Relationship with Gwen === | === Relationship with Gwen === | ||
Rhys | Rhys fancied Gwen as soon as he saw her because of her personality and looks. Their first [[kiss]] took place in a supermarket, after Rhys had become irritated with the customer service agent. ([[TV]]: ''[[Adam (TV story)|Adam]]'') For their first date, Rhys took Gwen on a [[picnic]] on the [[beach]], not knowing it was a [[nudist beach]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Sin Eaters]]'') After Gwen and Rhys had moved in together and Gwen had qualified as a police officer, Rhys helped her celebrate with [[champagne]], declaring himself "so proud" of her. On another occasion, Rhys attended the sixtieth birthday party of [[Mary Cooper]]. His zip malfunctioned, resulting in Gwen chasing him around the [[Gwen and Rhys' flat|flat]] to staple his trousers shut. ([[TV]]: ''[[Ghost Machine]]'') | ||
Rhys was aware of stories about [[alien invasion]]s. He did not believe them, speculating that they were mass hallucinations caused by terrorists putting psychotropic drugs in the water supply. ([[TV]]: ''[[Everything Changes]]'') When Gwen began working for Torchwood, she let him believe she worked for nothing more exciting than generic "special ops". As Gwen became more involved with Torchwood, Rhys grew irritated with her evasions and long hours. Gwen broke off a date to go [[bowling]] with him to investigate a [[meteorite]] fall with the team. ([[TV]]: ''[[Day One]]'') Rhys would stay up and listen to the local radio stations every night when Gwen was called out, sometimes until two in the morning, in case there was a report on a bank robbery or a raid on a crack den. Every night she was out there was a nutter on the radio talking about [[UFO]]s. It occurred to Rhys that the same nutter was probably on the radio every night she wasn't out as well.
