    Just saw it, and I thought it was pretty good. Better than Meat anyways.

    I never knew Jack's homestead was Dune that was interesting to know

    And Adam was fantastic as per usual but I was confused with the sand bit at the end...will he return? (which, I have no objections to) Or will the Holy Spirit jump out and swivel around the Torchwood team and melt their faces? (I'm sorry, I was re-watching Raiders of the Lost Ark before I saw the episode and when I saw the sand I just couldn't help myself)

    And the Void reference made me remember...

    "VIA THE VOID!"

    (I cannot get that phrase out of my head now...GREAT!!!)

    A neat episode (although quite similar to one of the Torchwood books) which gave us an intriguing 'alternative' version of, particularly, Tosh & Owen. I suspect its main purpose was to fill in Jack's backstory prior to the season finale, but even so it was an enjoyable episode.

    An enjoyable 50 minute romp.

    I almost think that there could be an added dimension to the Adam character, perhaps a second appearance (at some point) - something to 'flesh' him out, so to speak.

    The alternate Tosh and Owen was weird. I did want to slap Owen as he professed his love for Tosh And notice that he was wearing the glasses, not her.

    Well, there is a 'prequel' of sorts in the Torchwood book, Border Princes. This sort of thing clearly happens to the team all the time.
    Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!
