Story: Torchwoood: To the Last Man
Written By: Helen Raynor
Length: 50 Minutes
Year: 2008
Now here is a one-off love story I can get behind. All it takes is a little bit of background and the love story can be believable. Tosh kind of secretly looks forward to the same day every year, the day that Torchwood has to thaw Tommy Brockless, a soldier from 1918, to keep him alive. Tosh has a bit of a crush on him.
Its really well handled, and the story has got a nice bit of tragedy in it. Two people well suited for each other, but due to circumstance beyond their control it can never be.
Obviously this is the year Tommy is actually needed to solve a time crisis thing. Its a nice little character piece that is well written with strong performances from all, including Gwen who works better in the background doing very little. I think there are some great creepy things that happen in the hospital. All in all good episode.
