Digital Spy has Davies: 'New Torchwood not a reboot', Torchwood creator Russell T. Davies has insisted that the show's fourth series is not a reboot, "It's been off air for a couple of years and actually that shows on-screen" Davies told AOL Television. "But importantly for fans, there's not a glitch.

"There are new characters... who know nothing about Torchwood. They're like the new... audience. [New viewers] can all come and join in.

Tony Lee has posted Big Finish News…, "well, people have been emailing to congratulate me, Wikipedia has the name up on the list of stories and Doctor Who Magazine announced it, so I guess that’s enough to state that the cat is surely out of the bag - I have a Big Finish Audio coming out in June called Rat Trap – and it’s starring the Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison), Tegan (Janet Fielding), Turlough (Mark Strickson) and Nyssa (Sarah Sutton)....."
Around the World in 90 Days has Doctor Who Exhibition, "call us whatever you like but we shamelessly paid our pounds to see the Doctor Who exhibit in Cardiff. Not sure if it was the weather, or that it wasn’t “tourist season” but the exhibit was ours alone, the exhibit was housed in the Red Dragon Centre. This is bigger than a mall with IMAX, bowling, games, casino, bars and restaurants. In other words a place to go when it is cold and rainy (or Cardiff year round). Note the alien language on the sign...."Tid-Bits...
