So it's already been established that Torchwood and Who exist in the same universe. (Cyberwoman referenced the Battle of Canary Wharf etc), but RTD has said that there won't be an official TW/DW crossover, so my point is this:
Will the events speculated in ep 13 WHO, with the Earth under The Master's control, happen in the TW universe? Will the new TW series reference the WHO events? It ought to, shouldn't it, or will it all happen between series 1 and 2 and everything will be back to normal for TW series 2?

in DWC they showed the DW Capt. Jack but did not glimpse in to Jack's adventures at TW.
wonder if they will mention his reapperance on the TWDC next year and his time in DW.
RTD et al arent gonna say if there is a cross over really because they wont want to spoil it all and let us know everything
who knows what could happen in the near future
That was just a throwaway 'nod' to TW. DW wouldn't have an entire episode based around the aftermath of End of Days which relied on viewers having seen the other programme like TW did with Doomsday/Cyberwoman.
In fact, the Cardiff branch of Torchwood was pretty much brushed under the carpet when Jack told his life/deaths story in tonight's episode.
To be honest, if references to the goings on in Torchwood made it necessary to start watching Torchwood in order to properly enjoy the main prog then I would stop watching Dr Who, but that hasn't happened yet and if the production team have any sense they won't let it.
It would be great to see Doctor Who in Torchwood with an adult theme.
Yes, Capt. Jack was in the final 5 eps of DW series 1. They abandoned him in the year 200,100 after Rose had brought him back to life after she had killed the Daleks. He then used his spacehopper to go back to 1892 and then lived life and death and then joined TW so that he could keep an eye and ear out for the Doctor. The last bit is what we got from last night.
That's right.
Captain Jack: So what does regeneration feel like, Doctor?
The Doctor: It's like the best f***ing orgasm you've ever had multiplied by a squillion!
[The men stop as they notice a mangled corpse dumped amongst bags of rubbish.]
Captain Jack: Weevil bastards! They f***ing f***ety f***ed this guy to death! The f***ers!
[The Doctor kneels down to examine the corpse.]
The Doctor: I'm sorry. Im so f***ing sorry, you f***ing poor c***!
Etc...
That's uncanny. It's almost like torchwood, just with less swearing. No kissing either? Surely they would have got it on by now?
IMO they should leave Jack immortal, now he's happy with it and knows the Doctor can not reverse it.
You're not going to get promotion in Doctor Who for Torchwood because it's not suitable viewing for a proportion of the DW audience. Though it did make me giggle when the 10 year old Fear Factor reviewer recognised the Torchwood theme music and when his dad asked him how he knew that, he changed the subject rapidly.
As for the ending of Torchwood, beginning of Utopia, it looked as if Jack was running from the main Tourist Office entrance to the Hub. He wouldn't have been able to use the lift, as the TARDIS was parked on it so he wouldn't have been able to gain entry that way.
As for the other's not noticing Jack leaving when they came back with the pizzas, I guess the company doesn't deliver anymore after what happened in Cyberwoman), I think that they were all just preoccupied with their own thoughts. Owen on thinking where he was going to find someone to shag that night, Tosh daydreaming about shagging Owen and Ianto contemplating new uses for a stopwatch.
My friend reads a lot more articles and stuff than me about Doctor Who and Torchwood and she told me that Captain Jack in the next series of Torchwood will be more like we know him in Doctor Who. Is this true?
If it is then it would make some sense because he was wanting answers from the doctor and now he has them.
Yeah... I gave up on Torchwood but watched the last few minutes of that final episode to see what would happen to Jack.
To me it seemed like a TARDIS materialised in the hub, was it in fact outside and on the monitors or something?
Only explination is that Jacks been dropped off when we see TW but then correct me if I'm wrong but does nt he open the door and go in to the Tardis ?
