Torchwood - a clandestine organisation outside the government, beyond the police. An elite team of operatives defending Cardiff and the world from alien menaces and terrible forces, keeping the city safe from the interdimensional rift that runs through it. Led by the irrepressible Captain Jack Harkness, former Time Agent and companion to the Doctor, these brand new adventures find members of the Torchwood team both old and new caught up in a series of perilous events.
