Groan, yes, here too. I don't think I've seen blackbyrde in a year.
I'm just a regular chicken...
I'm a chicken too but in a different way. I don't think anything in Torchwood ever really scared me, though the mutilation of Tanzaki in "Cyberwoman" pushed a lot of my buttons. Why not? I loved the suspense, but something in my love of Captain Jack and the whole idea of Torchwood kept my "I'm scared and I can't stand this" reactions from coming to the fore. Just as well, because once that happens, I can't recover - I watched the first fifteen minutes, or some such, of Supernatural and was so cared I could watch no more and never looked at the show again. And never will.
In my mind, this is the cognitive difference between "horror" which I don't watch or enjoy, and "dark fantasy", which I do watch and enjoy.
when Rose said "I am the Bad Wolf", did "I" mean Rose or the TARDIS?
It's a very interesting question. I have changed my mind a few times on the answer, I think. My current interpretation is that the "I" is Rose - with the power of the TARDIS behind her, but as enabler rather than any kind of consciousness.
