It introduced the programme's regular characters, as well as recurring elements such as [[the Hub]], [[Myfanwy]], [[retcon]] and the [[Torchwood SUV]]. | |||
Written by [[Russell T Davies]], it had the distinction of being his only writing credit until the [[series 3 (Torchwood)|third series]]. It also bore certain structural commonalities with ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'', Davies's first episode of ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
