[News] Torchwood Extended Reality

Torchwood already had a sort of extended reality before....and now it's going to be bigger and more involved. You can actually 'join' Torchwood. I'm thinking it'll start before season 2 airs (Jan 26 at 9pm on BBC2).

Quote:
For the first time, viewers will also be able to take part in a specially commissioned online game created by Phil Ford (Torchwood series writer). During the series, players can apply to join Torchwood and see if they have what it takes to save the world!


The new site (more like redesigned site) was launched today.

Wonder if they have any US branches . . .

That would be f@#%ing cool to join Torchwood, maybe they'll hint Doctor Who a few times....

Oh hell yes! I watch Doctor Who as well. Is anyone keeping an eye on Martha's blog? I have a feeling she may be connected to this game.
Key word is may as I found it through the Master's Myspace....which I know is a Doctor Who tie in.

Uh, UNIT != Torchwood. They're two separate groups, and Torchwood's more ruthless than UNIT.

(But Torchwood also has access to better toys than UNIT Twisted Evil )

I didn't pay an attention to UNIT....Torchwood's pretty though and they do have some cool gadgets.

I know they're two seperate groups, but it was the closest I could think of Very Happy

Well suddenly I'm blocked out as I don't live in the UK. *waves fist at the Beeb*

So yeah, it's a UK only ARG/extended reality.
