PLOT SUMMARY
Ghosts are roaming the Earth and everyone seems happy enough to be
reunited with long lost loved ones. But The Doctor, Rose and Jackie
find themselves inside Torchwood Tower, where something a mysterious
sphere, which doesn't seem to exist at all, is being held in an underground
laboratory - and its contents could mean the end of the world when some
old enemies resurface...
CAPSULE REVIEW
An excellent start to the Season Two finale, with an intriguing set
of mysteries for The Doctor and Rose to solve (though audiences are
let into the Cyberman secret pretty early on), a solid proper introduction
to Torchwood for the upcoming spin-off series, the return of Mickey
and the best Doctor Who cliffhanger in many, many years. In retrospect
it was probably wasn't that hard to guess what was inside the sphere
but it was still an incredible shock when they poured out...
Excellent performances all round and the sort of inventive, engaging
direction we've come to expect from Graeme
Harper.
