30 days of Torchwood

Not watching the latest installment. Even so I do still love what came before it to pieces - I think. So here goes:


Day 01 - Your favourite Torchwood member

Not really all that difficult. Though I like them all, my favourite is clearly Ianto Jones. He is very much a supporting character, and not very developed through three seasons. Even so the viewers can see a definite shift in his personality, loyalties and skills. There is much depth to the character which is never explained or fleshed out.  He has the fewest lines of all the characters, but with the way Gareth David-Lloyd plays him, he is able to convey a lot through expressions and body-language.

I especially like Ianto’s relationship with Owen and the constant feuding between the two. His argument with Tosh in Countrycide about Torchwood's modus operandi made the episode my favourite one. And last but no least - Ianto and Jack are a nice couple - even though they're not, and their story is engaging - even though it's not told in detail.
