Torchwood Renewed

In a sign that the Doctor Who universe is still going strong, Torchwood has been picked up for a second series. This time, it is going to be on BBC Two instead of BBC Three, a higher profile station.

I'm hopeful that a second series announcement means that it will be more likely that we'll hear news of an American sale of Torchwood soon. And just as important, the related DVD announcement. As we haven't heard much about the Canadian broadcast either, I'm very curious if there is a connection.

With Doctor Who finishing the 2006 series on the Sci Fi channel next week, we'll have a very short window where we'll be completely caught up with the UK as far as that series is concerned.
