David Tennant and Billie Piper attended the premiere of new Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood last night.

They joined Torchwood cast members John Barrowman and Eve Myles in the audience for the first screening of the BBC Wales drama at St David's Hotel in Cardiff Bay.

Myles, who plays policewoman Gwen Cooper, told The Western Mail: "I've had a very positive reaction to Torchwood. Everyone is extremely excited and complimentary about it all. It's a beautiful part to play, there's a beautiful cast and great scripts."

BBC Wales controller Menna Richards introduced the episode to the audience, stating that she believes Torchwood "will have as loyal a following as the Doctor himself."
