About the show
1965: Twelve children are gathered together on a deserted
moorland, before being surrounded by a harsh, bright light... and
then they are gone!
Today: All over planet Earth, children stop moving. Stop playing.
Stop laughing. Stop everything. Then, as one, they begin to speak
with the same voice, announcing to the governments of the world the
imminent arrival of a new alien threat. We Are Coming, We Are
Coming...
As the British Government closes ranks, it issues a death warrant
against Captain Jack and Torchwood.
Now forced to flee for their lives, it becomes clear to the
Torchwood team that this isnt the aliens first visit to Earth, and
a terrible price is going to be paid for sins of the past...
Torchwood: Children Of Earth rejoins Captain Jack (John Barrowman),
Gwen Cooper (Eve Myles) and Ianto Jones (Gareth
David-Lloyd) who are still coming to terms with the death of
two of their closest friends.
Despite their pain, they have a job to do. This time they are faced
with their fiercest threat to date one which throws the future of
Torchwood and the entire human race spiralling into danger.
They battle against the odds but do they stand a chance of saving
humankind?

Who, The Thick of It, Skins), who plays the role of Mr Frobisher a
