Wheeeee that is so cool - I wonder with what accent?

Presumably his British one so they can make jokes about it!

Why do I get the feeling that the casting decision there began with the phrase "You know what would be really cool?" ?

Still, I don't care, because I am shallow and like looking at him. Also - Spike! Spikey! Woohoo!

Ahem. Moving on.

I think every Torchwood related decision began with that phrase! But this could be one of the ones that works. I wasn't a big fan of Spike by the end but James Marsters is certainly good at comedy so I hope he gets lots of that.

Woohoo - Jim from Neighbours is going to be on!

More on Torchwood series 2. Well, actually it looks like the press release recycled but it has a picture of John Barrowman and James Marsters together.

No sex or swearing for Martha. I can see the rationale - presumably this means that the rest of Jack's gang can never appear in Doctor Who (not a bad thing - I like the way the series are kept seperate).

I want one person who worked for Torchwood London (I guess maybe just Ianto) to reference how she looks just like Adeola. Or at least give her a double take.

Never mind!

BBC America has a con-*test*-('") that lets fans vote for the cover of the Region 1 DVDs. We do all agree that Cover 1 is better, since it Cover 2 makes them look like the Von Trapp family and Cover 1 shows off more of The Coat, yes?

Cover 1, very much better. Please!

Oh, hell. James is using his "British accent."

James could not help tossing a passive-aggressive little dig in there about Joss, huh?
