The torch didn't go out; it was picked up by Russell T Davis, and lives on in a changed, and hopefully equally compelling form.
From an interview with Russell T Davis -

| Davis actuallly got the idea for Torchwood before the notion of rejuvenating Doctor Who was even mooted. I had the idea while I was w**king on Casanova, three or four years before Dr Who was even mentioned. I'd been watching shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, and I said "Why don't we make a series like that." |
For those of us devotees, of Buffy and Angel, who have also watched Dr Who, we are already aware that Russell has been borrowing heavily from these two series.
Now waiting to see how a forces of goodness Welsh Initiative actually works for me.... :whistling:
