Torchwood Character Updates

This months Doctor Who Magazine has some further details about the characters in the upcoming series of Torchwood.

According to the magazine, Esther is going to be a devout Christian who is very much an optimist and with a strong faith in mankind. As speculated previously, she will also fall head over heels in love with Rex, another new character.


Of paedophile Oswold Jones, it says he is dangerous and clever and will seem to regret his evil past. It is also stated that he is fated to become the centre of terrifying events.

Another member, mentioned previously but seemingly forgotten by most, is Dr. Vera Juaraz, who will also be introduced as a recurring character and appear throughout, though little is known about her at present.
