Little Reasons Why We Love Torchwood...

[fajrdrako]

Torchwood: The Official Magazine #14 ended with a page entitled, "Little Reasons Why We Love Torchwood" and they cited as #1: the Stopwatch. They had a picture of Ianto holding the Stopwatch.

My list: My Top Ten Little Reasons I Love Torchwood:

1. The Stopwatch
2. The Coat
3. The Hand
4. The Pterodactyl
5. The Invisible Lift
6. The Webley
7. The Coral That Will be A TARDIS When It Grows Up
8. The Many Hugs
9. The Kisses
10. The Omnisexuality

Though #10 might be a Big Reason. How to draw the line?

The omnisexuality is number one on my list.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

They aren't actually in order of preference. If they were... yes, the omnisexuality would come first.

I mean was if someone asked me, that would be my first answer.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yes; but that would put it under 'big things'. It's certainly an appeal of the show, but I don't think it's a 'little thing', really. It's a major conceptual point. One I wish other shows would follow!

For me I'd rephrase #10 to be the 'lack of a big deal about anybodys sexuality'. But again, that would be a big reason.

I like that 'lack of a big deal' too, but that could mean that they don't mention or feature sex at all, or that there's no big deal because everyone is het. Which isn't the case. It's no big deal because it's no big deal and no one is easily labelled. That's what's so wonderful.

8, 9, and 10 are all Big Reasons, at least for me.

I'd add:

The SUV of blinkenlights and invulnerability.

The general mockery of Torchwood by allied agencies and townsfolk. :-D

The pile of empty beer bottles on top of the fridge.

The giant piece of filthy crap that is the Hub. I adore the Hub.

The ddraig goch mural.

Janet.

The SUV of blinkenlights and invulnerability.

And the way Jack drives it.

The general mockery of Torchwood by allied agencies and townsfolk. :-D

Can't blame 'em. Bloody Torchwood.

The pile of empty beer bottles on top of the fridge.

Hee!

I adore the Hub.

I do too. A high-tech/low-tech mess!

The ddraig goch mural.

Love that too, but we hardly see it.
