Davies has future 'Torchwood' plans

Russell T. Davies has said that he has planned out the future of Torchwood.

The creator of the Doctor Who spinoff told Torchwood Magazine that he would have no difficulty in continuing the story from the end of the 'Children Of Earth' five-parter.

Davies said: "I could write you scene one of series four right now. I know exactly how to pick it up.

"I've got a shape in mind, and I've got stories. I know where you'd find Gwen and Rhys, and their baby, and Jack, and I know how you'd go forward with a new form of Torchwood."

He added: "If the BBC asked for another 13 one-part stories, that's what we'd do. I'm ready for anything, but I think it works well as one continuous story.

"But if the BBC decide they want 13 one-offs, I'll suddenly decide that's the best format in the world!"

Torchwood star Jack Barrowman recently said that he felt the show had been "punished" when the length of its third series was reduced to five episodes, but Davies said that he was happy with the change in format.
