New Recruits

For anyone who tuned in to see the Doctor Who series 4 finale, there were many references to Torchwood (since Jack, Ianto and Gwen were all making guest appearances).

There is a major hint as to who will be replacing Tosh and Owen. This is all speculation, but it seemed to be a pretty obvious hint - One of the characters has already had some face time on Torchwood - Martha Jones [who would be filling the doctor position left vacant by Owen's departure]. The second potential recruit is Mickey Smith [who would be filling in the computer/tech genius], now that he has returned from the alternate Earth from the Doctor Who series.

Interesting to note that Jack, Martha and Mickey have all traveled with the Doctor to one degree or another - it seems fitting I suppose since Torchwood was founded because of the Doctor.

What does everyone think of these possible recruits? Yay? Nay?

   they're not tosh or owen, but at least they're familiar. so I'm okay with it, as long as jack doesn't leave

   do you mean me? because my post doesn't really contain spoilers - only speculation.

   
   

   If you're upset about me posting certain things, I started the post with fair warnings:

   "For anyone who tuned in to see the Doctor Who series 4 finale"

   and

   "There is a major hint as to who will be replacing Tosh and Owen"

   
   

   Both of these statement were made before writing any of my thoughts on the matter - and they might not be happening since they are all just theories!

   
   

   So, you're welcome for the 'spoilers' ;)

   I would rather new people and new characters because torchwood is a spin off yes but it is a different show that should have different characters(apart from Jack...). It's good that every now and then they cross over but the permanent characters should be different and new so there are more characters that we can for in love with and care about.
