Dannii in Torchwood? She's a more wooden, less good Kylie, and Kylie was just in Who... hmmm...
BTW the Kudos link made my computer go insane and jump to some mad spyware site.

How odd. I've tried it in both Safari and Firefox now and they both go to the right location (Hollywood Reporter). Have you got your pop-up blocker turned off? It's possible that HR is launching a pop-up that does bad things, but everything's okay if you have the blocker turned off.
As for Danni, she seems more in keeping with Torchwood than Kylie, somehow...

As Dannii is the Argos Kylie, so Torchwood is the Argos Doctor Who. Discuss.
(This argument would hold more water if it weren't for Roger Lloyd-Pack's sterling performance as the Argos Davros in the Cyberclunkers.)

I've been watching 'Brothers & Sisters' and am slightly worried about the direction the show will take without Baitz. But at the same time, it was Berlanti coming in that saved the day for the show.
Sometimes a creative change like this doesn't really get reflected on the screen - at least not in a radical fashion. So I'll wait and see...
And it should have been 'Law & Order: Manchester' with the son of Gene Hunt! (Only halfway through Season Two of 'Life On Mars' over here, and not sure if we'll get 'Ashes To Ashes', so I have no clue if that idea is even possible.)

It's possible - and yet not. I won't tell you why, though.

Works now. Weird.
