Torchwood This week!!!

Okay, I'm a big sci-fi fan, nut, etc. I'm a very big Doctor Who and Torchwood Fan. Torchwood is being broadcast on 5 days with the story Children of the Earth. It is awesome and really keeps you on the edge of your seat. I'm not going to give away plot and spoilers but I hope you catch it.

From the Doctor Who new site at: http://www.gallifreyone.com/news.php

Torchwood: Children of Earth was watched by 5.9 million viewers, according to unofficial overnight figures. The programme was the 5th most watched programme of the day and the 2nd highest rated on BBC1, being beaten by the three main soaps. The programme won its timeslot with an audience share of 25.8%.

An additional 97,000 people watched the programme in HD on the BBC HD channel.

The BBC Three repeat at 2345 was watched by 214,000 viewers, a 3.9% share.

Part Two of Torchwood: Children of Earth was watched by 5.6 million viewers, making it the the most watched programme of the day on british television. The programme beat Eastenders and Emmerdale, with both soaps losing ratings to the Michael Jackson Memorial on BBC 2.

The programme audience once more grew throughout the hour and got an average 24% share of the total audience.


An additional 82,000 people watched the programme in HD on the BBC HD channel.

The BBC Three repeat at 2345 was watched by 282,000 viewers, a 5.8% share.

The Appreciation Index for Episode One was 88, one of the highest scores for the day.







This week I'm taking a hooking break and crocheting tote bags from strips of torn cotton fabrics with a size S hook. I'll be posting pics tomorrow of them.
