Captain Jack Scores Doctor Who Spin-Off

The BBC has commissioned the Doctor Who scriptwriter Russell T Davies to make an adult spin-off of its most famous sci-fi show. The new programme will be called Torchwood (an anagram of Doctor Who) and will follow a crack team investigating alien activities and crime in modern-day Britain. It will feature in its starring role John Barrowman, who played Captain Jack Harkness in Doctor Who and who will play the same character in Torchwood
