Torchwood Snogging, Synopses, And More

Season two of Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood will start airing in about two weeks here in the States, and we've got a few new details about the show. Watch Captain Jack and Captain John (James Marsters) snog and beat each other up in our two exclusive clips, then read quotes from Marsters and synopses of the first five episodes, below the fold.

Marsters' character, Captain John, is a dark foil to John Barrowman's Captain Jack. "He is what Jack used to be," Marsters explains. "Though I have a feeling that Jack was even meaner and nastier, if that's possible. I think it's my job to make that old life seem as seductive as I can, so it's a question of which path Jack will choose. He's just come back [from traveling on Doctor Who], and his team are mad at him. So is he going to be a responsible leader, or is he going to screw it up?"
