Torchwood : Captain Jack's secret past revealed

The new series of Torchwood promises to be explosive.

That's the verdict from John Barrowman, better known as Captain Jack.

"The new Torchwood story drags up a lot of people's secrets, and we all like
to see that, don't we?" he teases.

"It¹s the kind of story that, once you start watching it, you will be hooked.

"Even if you've never seen Torchwood before, you¹re going to fall for these characters, and you¹re going to go with them on an amazing journey that will be the biggest rollercoaster ride of their lives."
