Well fuck me: The BBC have announced that an RTD-helmed fourth series of  Torchwood is going forward, and will be co-produced by BBC Wales and American network Starz Entertainment. Barrowman and Myles will reprise their roles, and the series will contain ten episodes set in various locations worldwide including Wales and, haha, the US.

Beyond that there’s not a lot else we know about the new series. Still, if the show can hold on to the level of brilliance it reached for Children of Earth then everybody wins.
