In this episode of our Torchwood: Miracle Day deep dive, we take a closer look at the sixth episode of the season, “Immortal Sins.” Join us as we explore the complex relationship between Captain Jack Harkness and Angelo Colasanto, the man who turned Jack into a fixed point in time. We examine the themes of love, betrayal, and forgiveness that run throughout the episode and discuss how they tie into the larger themes of the season.

We also delve into the character of Esther Drummond, who takes centre stage in this episode as she investigates the mysterious organisation known as the Families. We analyze Esther’s motivations and character arc, as well as her relationship with Rex Matheson, who continues to be a controversial figure among fans.

As always, we discuss the episode’s standout moments, including the haunting flashbacks to Jack’s past in 1920s New York and the shocking revelation about Angelo’s fate. We also examine the episode’s flaws, including some clunky dialogue and pacing issues.

Let’s Kill Hitler: Press Launch

Right. Yes, now. Where to start? I attended the press launch of Doctor Who: Let’s Kill Hitler last night. However I, like everyone else in the room, was sworn to secrecy: to tell you anything about it would completely ruin the story for you. All I can say is it’s good. Very, very good. It feels more like the traditional series opener. It’s funny when it needs to be and thrilling when the episode calls for it.

The cast all put in exceptional performances. I’m finding this extremely difficult to write as it would truly ruin the episode if I were to say anything about it. Look, just come back here on August 28th. I’ll be able to say more then.
