Main plot details for this seasons' Torchwood

"It's not a story about spaceships but it's about a government that did a deal with aliens back in the '60s, and they're now dealing with the consequences of that deal when the sins of their past come back to haunt them. We wanted to go down the children dilemma route. Because this storyline is a subject that's going to affect all the Children of Earth'"

Episode one is about the team becoming suddenly fragmented

Episode two is much more of a spy thriller as they go their seperate ways

Episode three introduces the alien threat in a big way

Episode four is a huge political drama about the wider repercussions

Episode five of course as everything and is a race to save humanity"

-Filming scenes + a scene has been filmed where Rhys steals a laptop from a car, whilst Gwen distracts a woman

-Another scene has been filmed where Ianto and Rhys fake a fight near a cafe, whilst Gwen steals a laptop/briefcase

-Ianto then pretends to be a waiter and steals a credit card. A casually dressed Jack also appears to do some stealing.

-Gwen has been seen 'interviewing' a young male Doctor by the name of Rupesh, who already appears to be partially aware of Torchwood. Jack and Ianto are seen talking to Rupesh outside a hospital during episode 1 before getting into the SUV. This character is apparently killed off after the Hub explosion.

-There's a scene where Jack and Ianto are 'gagging for it' but the pressence of a third male prevents them from actually going any further.
